Saubert Impressing NFL Evaluators During Shrine Game Practices

Former Drake University standout Eric Saubert, who has received an invitation to the NFL Combine last week, completed his second day of practice on Tuesday in preparation for the East-West Shrine Game which is set to take place on Saturday at 2 p.m.

It didn't take long for Saubert to turn some heads.

Here are what some scouts and talent evaluators in the media said during and after Monday's practice: The praises continued on Tuesday with Mike Mayock, the top draft analyst for the NFL Network, and among others weighing in. This past season, Saubert was tabbed as an All-American for the second time in his career after hauling in a career-best 56 catches for 776 yards and 10 touchdowns. His 70.5 receiving yards per game ranked second nationally among tight ends.

 The Shrine Bowl begins at 2 p.m. Saturday. You can watch it on NFL Network.
