The annual Senior Bowl watch list has been unveiled and there are some notable names. Read below to see who.

The Senior Bowl is one of the biggest pre-draft events on the calendar. The nation's best seniors get together for a week of practices and festivities that culminate in the annual Senior Bowl Saturday. While there may be a whole season to get through until it's time, here's a look at some of the players the folks in Mobile are high on. 

Full list at the end sorted alphabetically by school, with links to scouting reports.

NFL Draft: Breaking Down the 2023 Senior Bowl Watch List

The Long List of QBs

Getting a group of signal-callers together in a live setting where they can compete under controlled variables is the best way to assess incoming talent. With first impressions being lasting ones, the week of practices can have a significant effect on the quarterback positioning battle. While Kentucky's Will Levis headlines the group, the rest of the act is no slouch. Some other names worth watching include Tennessee's Hendon Hooker, Boston College's Phil Jurkovec, Purdue's Aidan O'Connell and national champion Stetson Bennett of Georgia among others. 

Offensive Skill Positions are Rich with Talent

There will be no shortage of household names when it comes to playmakers in Mobile this year. At running back, the watch list has the likes of UCLA's Zach Charbonnet, Georgia's Kenny McIntosh and Kentucky's Chris Rodriguez Jr. Wide receiver shares in the notoriety with Wake Forest's A.T. Perry, Tennessee's Cedric Tillman and Michigan's Cornelius Johnson. Perhaps the deepest group are the pass- catchers that play in-line. That's right, this year's watch list is sizzling with tight-end talent including, Michigan's Luke Schoonmaker and Erick All, Iowa's Sam LaPorta, Alabama's Cameron Latu, Miami's Will Mallory and Alabama transfer turned Texas Longhorn, Jahleel Billingsley. 

The All-Star Caliber Front Seven

Good thing the Senior Bowl divides players into teams because no offense would fare well against the trench players and linebackers on this year's watch list. On the interior, there Texas' Keondre Coburn, Penn State's PJ Mustipher and Alabama's Byron Young. A scary group of edge rushers is on tap next, including Georgia's Nolan Smith, Texas Tech's Tyree Wilson, Army's Andre Carter II and Iowa State's Will McDonald IV. The linebackers round out the bunch with notables like Alabama's Henry To'o To'o, Iowa's Jack Campbell, Auburn's Owen Pappoe and TCU's Dee Winters.

Secondary is Loaded with Traits and Talent

The corner class seems to shine every year in Mobile, and early indications have us expecting similar results based on this list. Starting off with Ohio State's Cameron Brown, Miami's Tyrique Stevenson, Purdue's Cory Trice, Stanford's Kyu Blu Kelly and Iowa's Riley Moss. The safeties are not to be trifled with and have household names like Alabama's Jordan Battle, Georgia's Christopher Smith, Florida State's Jammie Robinson and Boise State's JL Skinner.
