This is a fun read that SI has done the past few years. As a lover of mysteries, I like to try and follow the bread crumbs to see if I can deduce the identity of X. The first year I did, and I'm pretty confident I have this years figured out, but I won't spoil it.

Added cool thing - Bills were one of the teams that scouted him:

A guard named Drew Forbes who went in the 6th to the Browns. 

 

Doesn't appear that he, or last year's Player X (Matt Cole, who went to the Dols) are anything to write home about.

I was just reading up on Forbes, looks like he opted out last year due to Covid.

Nah, that’s kind of the point. I think the articles are about showing what the other side of the draft process is like for the guys outside the media coverage. In a way it’s something we’re all familiar with- a job hunt/interview, but at the same time its completely different.

Well it’s clear he is an FCS or D2 defensive player, sounds like a LB or DB based on talking about two droppers and overhangs. Had no FBS offers. Clear Day 3 guy at best anyone wanna take a guess?
