Aside from the resumes they've built on the field throughout their respective careers, the Senior Bowl provides another platform to impress NFL teams -- whilst also getting expert tutelage in the process.
All three accepted invitations for the all-star game. Boehm and McGovern have been staples along the Mizzou offensive line for multiple years. Boehm's set the school record for starts last week against Tennessee, and is the only center prospect invited to the event.
McGovern's biggest strength is his versatility. He's played at left tackle this year out of necessity, but his true position likely lies inside at guard.
Brothers leads the nation in tackles (140), and is the unquestioned leader of Mizzou's defense. He inexplicably was left off the Butkus Award list -- a prize given to the nation's top linebacker.
