Don't I know you? Next-gen NFL hopefuls
1. LB Ian Seau, Nevada: Junior Seau's nephew transferred from Kansas State and might not be drafted until the final rounds, but his bloodlines and 18 total sacks the past two seasons make this Seau worth a ring.
2. OT Pearce Slater, San Diego State: Jackie Slater's son is 6-7, 340-plus with a wingspan of 85 inches. Only Baylor defensive end Shawn Oakman (6-7, 270, nearly 11-inch hands and 84¼-inch wingspan) can look the "little" Slater in the eye this week.
3. OT Brandon Shell, South Carolina: Former Raiders coach and Pro Football Hall of Fame offensive tackle Art Shell is the uncle of Brandon Shell, who just turned 24.
4. FB Derek Watt, Wisconsin: He's not invited to the event but here's a hunch: J.J.'s little brother will be in camp with the Houston Texans in Bill O'Brien's offense, which employs a fullback.
5. QB Stephen Rivers, Northwestern State: By way of LSU and Vanderbilt, Rivers wants to chase the dream of joining big brother Philip Rivers in the NFL. After going to the NFLPA all-star game and Arizona regional combine, he wasn't invited to Indy.
