Senior Bowl 2018: Rosters, Top Prospects for College All-Star Game
The Senior Bowl is where NFL Draft prospects go to impress future employers and where NFL general managers, coaches and scouts visit to tear apart every little detail of a player's game.
Some of the top seniors in the class of 2018 have been hard at work in Mobile, Alabama, this week, and there are quite a few who have stood out among the pack.
The top performers in practice range from stars at the biggest programs in college football to Division II and III standouts who have worked their way on to the NFL radar.
With the Senior Bowl ahead on Saturday, we picked out a few players worth watching that will be featured quite a bit on the North and South teams.

Top Prospects to Watch
Baker Mayfield, QB, Oklahoma
When it comes to the quarterback position, all eyes are on the two potential top-10 picks on the North roster.
Oklahoma's Baker Mayfield is sharing the spotlight with Wyoming's Josh Allen in a showcase in front of scouts without UCLA's Josh Rosen or USC's Sam Darnold anywhere to be found.

Mayfield has impressed so far during his time in Mobile, with Pro Football Focus pointing out his ability to throw accurate passes deep down the middle of the field.
Another element of Mayfield's game that has been on display during Senior Bowl practice has been his touch on certain throws, an asset Bleacher Report's Matt Miller thinks the Heisman Trophy winner doesn't get enough credit for.
By all accounts, Mayfield is showing well at the Senior Bowl, which only bodes well for his prospects in April with the Cleveland Browns, New York Jets, Washington Redskins and others seriously looking at quarterbacks.
Alex Cappa, OT, Humboldt State
The small school player that everyone will be aware of by the end of the weekend is Humboldt State offensive tackle Alex Cappa, who has put on a show with his strength during Senior Bowl practice.
NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah was one of the many analysts who were impressed with the tenacity of Cappa on film.

Pewter Report's Trevor Sikkema gave us a look at how powerful Cappa is as he blocked Marcus Davenport of Texas-San Antonio, who is regarded as a first-round talent.
Given the small stature of Division II Humboldt State, NFL minds had a small amount of quality film to break down Cappa, but now that they've seen him firsthand, the lineman has a chance to gain the most of any prospect in Mobile.
Of course, the details of Cappa's technique and performance will be broken down in the coming months, but to even be mentioned as a standout among plenty of star Division I players is a step in the right direction for him.
DaeSean Hamilton, WR, Penn State
Penn State wide receiver DaeSean Hamilton may not be in the top echelon of draft prospects at his position like Alabama's Calvin Ridley and SMU's Courtland Sutton, but he is narrowing the gap between him and the potential first-rounders.
One of Hamilton's best assets is his speed, which he's been able to use to get by opposing defensive backs in practice.

Bruce Feldman of Sports Illustrated noted that he expects Hamilton to continue to win over potential suitors in a similar fashion to one of his former teammates.
Bleacher Report's Marcus Mosher went as far to describe Hamilton as one of the standouts from North practice on Wednesday.
Hamilton could go as high as the second round, but if he impresses as much as he has this week over the next three months, he could sneak into the first-round discussion.
