What channel is the Senior Bowl 2020 on today? Time, rosters & NFL Draft prospects with the most to prove

The 2020 Senior Bowl will be less about culminating an all-star college football career and more about conducting the big job interview for April's 2020 NFL Draft.

Getting invited to participate means a player has the eyes of pro evaluators as an intriguing prospect who has finished his college eligibility and/or graduated from college. Last year, the game produced 93 of the 254 picks in the 2019 draft, including 40 of the 102 players taken in Rounds 1 through 3.

Here's a breakdown of what you need to know about Senior Bowl week — how to watch, who's participating and who has most on the line while trying to impress their potential future employers.

2020 NFL Draft prospects with the most to prove at the Senior Bowl

Justin Herbert, QB, Oregon

Herbert (6-6, 237) is a well-built specimen with good size and arm strength and underrated mobility. The challenge for him has been consistently putting it all together, in rhythm, as an efficient passer. He has a chance to answer all of that to nail down the No. 2 quarterback spot behind Joe Burrow.

Jalen Hurts, QB, Oklahoma

Hurts (6-2, 218 pounds) will wear that neat split helmet that represents both of his former schools in Alabama and Oklahoma. Given the fact that the last two quarterbacks Lincoln Riley coached (Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray) won the Heisman Trophy and went No. 1 overall, Hurts shot up to first-round intrigue during a productive season as a dual threat in a spread offense. His leadership skills and intangibles, gained from leading two top programs, are evident. Now about showing he has pro-tailored physical skills.

Jordan Love, QB, Utah State

Love (6-4, 225 pounds) is another exceptional athlete with ideal size and build working out in Mobile. But for him to keep rising up draft boards into at least early Day 2 consideration, he must prove his accuracy, ability to read defenses and his decision-making. He has the potential to see significant improvement.

Kristian Fulton, CB, LSU

Fulton (6-1, 192 pounds) had a few big lapses in coverage while tested on the other side of LSU freshman sensation Derek Stingley Jr. But he can show coaches he's a smart technician who can grow into a fundamentally sound cover man in the NFL.

Neville Gallimore, DT, Oklahoma

Gallimore (6-2, 301 pounds) is a freakish athlete with great natural pass-rush skills inside. He tapped into that in his final collegiate season with four sacks, 6.5 tackles for loss and two forced fumbles. He can raise his stock back into first-round consideration with a strong week.

Chase Claypool, WR, Notre Dame

Claypool (6-4, 229) was a highly productive player for the Fighting Irish, using his size well to become a touchdown machine (scoring 13 times with his 66 catches for 1,037 yards). Although he averaged 15.7 yards per catch, there are some concerns about his downfield speed and lateral quickness for a guy his size. He can put them to rest in Mobile.

Trey Adams, OT, Washington

Adams ia another massive player (6-8, 327 pounds) in relation to his position. Adams is trying to push into the same tier of USC's Austin Jackson, Georgia's Andrew Thomas and Iowa's Tristan Wirfs as tackles standing out early in the draft process. He can be smooth in pass protection and powerful in run-blocking, but he has to show scouts he's agile enough to play on the left side.

Kenny Willekes, EDGE, MIchigan State

Willekes (6-4, 260 pounds) was productive in his final two seasons in East Lansing, combining for 18 sacks and 36 tackles for loss. The former walk-on is a high-effort player with good versatility in getting to the quarterback, and holds up well against the run. He has a chance to show scouts that he has been undersold as twitchy athlete.

Alton Robinson, EDGE, Syracuse

Robinson (6-4, 260 pounds) overcame some off-field issues by pouring his heart into becoming a productive, often dominant pass-rusher for the Orange. His sacks did drop from 10 as a junior to only four as a senior, but he increased his playmaking in other areas. Robinson will hope to solidify himself as at least a second-rounder.

Collin Johnson, WR, Texas

Johnson (6-6, 220) has some Mike Evans in him, but he's coming off a hamstrung season in which he was limited to only seven games. He did catch 38 passes for 559 yards and three touchdowns to continue his steady production improvement. In a deep wideout class, Johnson, like Claypool, can make a (literal) big case to stand out.
