(SportsNetwork. Marquette King Jersey .com) - For 30 of the NFLs 32 teams, the focus has already shifted toward next season and that means preparation for the draft is kicking into high gear. Monday marked the beginning of Senior Bowl week in Mobile, Alabama, as NFL officials from all 32 clubs, along with 110 draft-eligible college prospects descended on the Gulf Coast. The Titans and Jaguars coaching staffs will be mentoring the best senior and redshirt junior talent in the country leading up to the 66th annual Senior Bowl on Jan. 24. In a quarterback-light year when only two signal callers have been given first-round grades by most scouts -- Florida States Jameis Winston and Oregons Marcus Mariota -- intriguing Baylor project Bryce Petty is one of the more high-profile prospects on hand and a player sure to receive a lot of attention in the Cotton State. The sturdy, 6-foot-3, 230-pound Petty spent his first three years in Waco, Texas, as a backup to Robert Griffin III as well as Nick Florence before taking over Art Briles dynamic spread offense as a junior in 2013. He finished that season with 4,200 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and only three interceptions, while adding 14 more scores on the ground. The sequel was also solid as Petty, who finished 10th in the Heisman Trophy voting in 2014, passed for 3,855 yards and 29 touchdowns along with six more on the ground while leading the Bears to a share of the Big 12 title and a berth in the Cotton Bowl, where he threw for a record 550 yards in a 42-41 loss to Big Ten powerhouse Michigan State. Petty has the measureables that NFL teams look for, but hes been pigeonholed as a spread-offense quarterback, who will need plenty of time to learn the intricacies of a traditional NFL system. So, much like Mariota, its build the offense around Pettys skill set or understand hes a two- or three-year project at minimum while learning yours. I just want to prove that I can play in an NFL system, Petty said. That its not about this college system. I can do drops, I can read defenses, go through progressions, pick up NFL offenses, the verbiage, what Im supposed to look at, all that kind of stuff. The positives on Petty, who has been projected by most as a third-round pick, are his size and mobility, along with strong natural leadership skills, something demanded by the position he plays. When Petty feels it, he also can be an efficient passer, with touch, timing and effective ball placement, although it remains to be seen if you can really drive the football downfield consistently, especially against NFL-caliber defensive backs. We like to go fast and we like to go deep (at Baylor), Petty said. That part makes it fun. I think thats why kids love playing for coach Briles and in our system. Being an offensive guy, you love making the big play. The big play is always fun, its always exciting, so being a part of that, being able to jumpstart those explosive plays was always fun. Helping jumpstart those explosive plays is Pettys functional football mobility, which is well above average, making his ability to extend plays outside the pocket exceptional at times on the college level. Of course, keeping your eyes up and looking downfield while an NFL pass rush is bearing down is a different animal. Like most spread-specific QBs, Petty often arrives at the line of scrimmage with a predetermined read in mind and locks in on that particular receiver. The fact he was always in the shotgun at Baylor is also a concern and scouts will be paying close attention to his mechanics and footwork under center. Right now Petty is regarded as a system-dependent QB who excels in quick, one- read situations in which tempo and spacing are key. The hard part is projecting if he can be anything more than that at the next level. That whole system deal is what it is, Petty explained. I was told when I came in (to Baylor), Hey, this is the car youre going to drive and here are the keys. For me, thats what I was told to do and I wanted to excel at that and be the best I could at that system. Regardless of what system I come into in the NFL, Im going to take that same approach. Im going to excel in whatever system that Ill be in. To do that, Petty has been working with noted quarterback guru George Whitfield in an attempt to improve his game and prove hes not a one-trick pony. What Ive always said is theres a billion ways to coach quarterbacks, Petty said. Everybodys got a certain click or a certain way they like to be coached. For George, its so personal. Hes great at what he does because he makes it easy to understand what hes talking about. And its even easier to understand what Petty is trying to accomplish in Mobile ... its time to buck the Baylor system. You dont have to worry about a system guy, Petty said, basically pleading his case to NFL scouts. What you are going to get is a passionate guy thats going to want to absorb anything and everything he can. I feel like I am a top quarterback in this draft and (Im here) to prove it.

There is plenty of blame to be shared as a result of the most recent NHL player (Pittsburghs Brooks Orpik) to be evacuated from the ice on a stretcher following an ugly incident Saturday night in Boston. SEATTLE -- Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon wants his team to take responsibility for this loss. Right fielder Cole Gillespie committed two of Seattles season-high five errors in a 9-7 loss Sunday to the Kansas City Royals. The five errors were three more than they had in a game this year and the teams most since Sept. 5, 2011, against the Los Angeles Angels. "One thing I dont do is make excuses for guys, so the onus is on the players in the locker room today," McClendon said. Johnny Giavotella had a three-run homer in a four-run seventh inning, helping the Royals rally from a 7-5 deficit. Alcides Escobar had given the Royals the early lead with a second-inning grand slam off starter Roenis Elias. But the Mariners rallied behind Dustin Ackleys two homers and Kyle Seagers two-run shot to take the 7-5 lead after five innings. Danny Farquhar (1-1), though, took over in the seventh and yielded all four runs. Farquhar was upset by a critical call by home umpire Marcus Pattillo three batters before Giavotellas home run. The Royals seventh began with a double by Eric Hosmer. Farquhar then struck out Billy Butler and appeared to strike out Danny Valencia on a 2-2 curveball. But Pattillo called it a ball, causing Farquhar to throw up his arms in disgust. "Im pretty sure umpires dont like that," Valencia said. Farquhar was upset and it seemed to have an impact on the rest of his inning. He ended up walking Valencia and Alex Gordon, loading the bases. Lorenzo Cain tied it with a sacrifice fly to centre. Then Giavotella, promoted from Triple-A Omaha on Thursday, hit Farquhars first pitch for his first home run. "Sometimes you want pitches and they are not called," Farquhar said. "You cant let that affect you. I want everything called a strike, so that is nothing different for me." Valencia added, its part of the game. Its going to happen. No ones perfect out there. Fortunately, it was in my favour." Royals manager Ned Yost, when asked about Farquhars borderline pitch, said, "We were upset when we didnt get a third strike on (Mike) Zunino, too, which ended up costing us two runs. Thats part of the game." That pitch came during the Mariners three-run, second-inning rally. After Ackley hit his first home run to open the iinning, Stephen Romero was hit by a pitch, bring up Zunino. Tramaine Brock Jersey. Starter Jeremy Guthrie believed he had Zunino struck out but it was called a ball. Zunino then singled to right and both runners scored on a double by Brad Miller, ending a 0-for-19 slide. Greg Holland came on in the ninth to pick up his ninth save in 10 opportunities. Louis Coleman (1-0), who worked a scoreless sixth, earned the victory. A pair of errors in the fourth allowed the Royals to build the lead by to 5-3. Giavotella walked and Escobar singled. Catcher Zunino tried to pick Giavotella off second but his throw scooted into centre for an error, with the runners advancing. First baseman Justin Smoak then bobbled Nori Aokis bouncer, allowing Giavotella to score. Seager, who missed the previous two games with flu-like symptoms, hit his sixth home run in the fourth followed by Ackleys second, his first career multihomer game. Ackley also had a home run in the sixth inning Saturday, giving him three in three straight at-bats. He has four on the season. "Ive been seeing the ball pretty well," Ackley said, "putting good swings on balls and not missing things." The Mariners added a run in the fifth on Corey Harts two-out single, scoring James Jones from second. Entering the game, the Royals had hit just 14 home runs, lowest in baseball. But seven of their nine runs scored via the long ball. "Sometimes errors are as contagious as hitting is," Ackley added. "Anything is contagious. We just have to scratch this one and move on. It was a tough game. I think we should have won it." NOTES: Mariners RF Michael Saunders, who slipped chasing a flyball in the third inning of Saturdays game, missed the game with a hyper-extended left knee. "Its a little sore but nothing thats going to hinder me from missing significant time," Saunders said. He pinch hit in the eighth and struck out. ... Mariners pitchers James Paxton (strained lat muscle) and Taijuan Walker (shoulder impingement) threw bullpen sessions before the game. Paxton is up to 40 pitches and will have another session Wednesday before a decision will be made where he will pitch next. Walker threw 25 pitches and will need at least a couple more sessions before the club considers a rehab assignment.
