Monday marks the first day of official Senior Bowl events at Mobile, Alabama as 2014 NFL Draft prospects look to improve their draft stock at the Senior Bowl. Although big names often opt to not attend, even ones that should (Looking at you AJ McCarron), the Senior Bowl offers a good chance to look at a wide variety of prospects before the NFL Combine.

The Senior Bowl’s first big event is the weigh ins of the prospects, and while it may or may not be a tad creepy obsessing over the weights and heights of prospects it is something that can make or break a prospects draft value. Not enough height at certain positions can be a killer, as can not enough weight at others. Like it or not, it is apart of the draft process and is something that NFL scouts and front offices value.

Quarterbacks were amongst the first to weigh in, with Tajh Boyd, David Fales, Derek Carr, Stephen Morris, Logan Thomas, Aaron Murray and Jimmy Garoppolo all submitting for their measureables on Monday morning in Mobile.

It will be interesting to see the group of QB’s this week as all of them besides Carr should fall outside of the first round and can really help their draft stock with an impressive week of practice and a solid game performance. Georgia’s Aaron Murray will not be playing, but should help his draft stock by being in Mobile for the interview process with NFL teams.

Following are the full weigh ins of the 2014 Senior Bowl quarterbacks.
