The Undroppables - According to Grok: The Senior Bowl Hype Machine %

With the Senior Bowl unfolding this week in Mobile, I set out to gather as much information as possible on these players.

We can plug the objective data into a spreadsheet (Height/Weight/Hand Size/Arm Length/ Wingspan and top MPH recorded). Then there’s tons of subjective stuff we were presented with (lists of winners and losers, viral video tweets, you know… general sentiment).

I have spent hours this week trying to aggregate the subjective, understanding fully that the latter will be heavily influenced by what our algorithmic overlords provide on my display.

Regardless, I want us to have a reference point on these players to return to after the combine and after the draft (spoiler alert! That’s coming as soon as I figure out how to package it).

When my wife, who works in tech (read: is much more intelligent than me), asked what I was up to, I tried to explain. “There’s AI for that,” she suggested. I was aware and had messed around with a few of these models, but I didn’t feel they were up to this task. Sure, they could summarize articles for me, but I need to find them. Not to mention, most of the action is on Twitter.

Light Bulb!

I remembered people raving about Elon’s AI model a few months ago. One of the key features was that it could assess things in real time due to being plugged into Twitter! This could save me days!

I gave my wife a big kiss, and on the evening of Wednesday, January 31, I bit the bullet, subscribed to X Premium, and started asking Grok (X’s AI Feature). The following is our conversation (and some of my thoughts) on the 2024 Senior Bowl (and other things). My prompts are in italics, and Grok’s responses are in bold.

Cold Open

Joe: Who is the most tweeted-about player at the 2024 Senior Bowl?

Grok: Greetings, human! You’re interested in the most-tweeted-about player at the 2024 Senior Bowl. Well, I’ve scoured the depths of the internet and found that the most popular player at the event is the electrifying quarterback from the University of Oregon, Bo Nix!

Bo Nix has been lighting up the Twitterverse with his impressive performance during the Senior Bowl practices. People can’t get enough of his rocket arm and his ability to make plays on the run. He’s been trending on Twitter with the hashtag #BoKnowsFootball.

But let’s not forget about the other players who have been making waves at the Senior Bowl. Wide receivers like Ricky Pearsall from Florida and Roman Wilson from Georgia have also been turning heads with incredible catches and blazing speed.

In conclusion, Bo Nix is the most-tweeted-about player at the 2024 Senior Bowl, but plenty of other talented players are making their mark on the field and social media. So, keep your eyes peeled and your Twitter notifications on because you never know who might be the next big thing in college football!

I was surprised by the answer. My feed gave me all the Roman Wilson and a good dose of Ricky Pearsall, but Bo Nix? He was getting more attention on Day 2 and performing better by all accounts, but the buzz on my feed was leaning negative.

I kept going.

Wide Receiver Hype

Joe: Which Wide Receivers are getting the most positive attention?

Grok: Bo Nix, the electrifying quarterback from the University of Oregon, has been getting a lot of buzz at the 2024 Senior Bowl. But let’s not forget about the wide receivers who have been turning heads and making waves.

Based on recent Twitter chatter, Roman Wilson from Georgia seems to be the wide receiver getting the most positive attention. He’s been praised for his ability to get open and win vertically and horizontally. Other wide receivers who have been making an impact include Brenden Rice, Javon Baker, and Ricky Pearsall.

But let’s not forget about the other talented players at the Senior Bowl. Plenty of other wide receivers have been doing the work and showing off their skills. The Senior Bowl is an excellent opportunity for these players to showcase their talents and make a name for themselves, and it’s exciting to see who will rise to the top.

Once Grok finished gushing about Nix, again, unprompted, he (it?) started listing additional WRs consistent with my feed. It’s time to ask about negative reviews.

Wide Receiver Negative Reviews

Joe: Which Wide Receivers are getting the most negative attention?

Grok: Well, it seems like some wide receivers have been catching more criticism than passes at the Senior Bowl this year! While Roman Wilson has been turning heads and making waves, a few other players are in the hot seat.

One such player is Florida’s Ricky Pearsall, who has been struggling to make an impact and has left some fans wondering if he left his hands back in Gainesville. Texas’s Javier Legette is another receiver who has been getting some negative attention. Some scouts have been questioning his route-running and ability to separate from defenders.

Let’s not forget that it’s just one practice, and there’s still plenty of time for these players to turn things around and show their true potential. After all, even the greatest of receivers have had their off days.

Interesting. Most of what I’ve seen on Ricky Pearsall has been positive. Grok just said he was getting positive reviews, then this burn from an AI model. The Xavier Legette comment tracks. By all accounts, he had a tough day one but made some highlight-worthy plays on day two.

Wide Receiver Buzz

Joe: Which Wide Receivers have been Tweeted about the most?

Grok: Well, the wide receivers who have been tweeted about the most at the 2024 Senior Bowl are pretty talented! Roman Wilson from Georgia has been making waves with his impressive performance. Florida’s Ricky Pearsall has been turning heads with his smooth route-running and ability to make big plays.

But let’s not forget about the other wide receivers who have been generating buzz on Twitter. There’s also Brenden Rice from Colorado, who has been showcasing his versatility and big-play ability. And, of course, we cannot leave out the dynamic duo from South Carolina, Xavier Legette and Jalen Brooks, who have been making a solid case for themselves as top prospects.

In conclusion, the wide receivers tweeted about the most at the 2024 Senior Bowl are Roman Wilson, Ricky Pearsall, Brenden Rice, Xavier Legette, and Jalen Brooks. These players have been making a solid impression on the field and Twitter, and it will be exciting to see how they continue to develop in their football careers.

They were a dynamic duo at South Carolina in 2022, but Jalen Brooks was drafted in 2023. I’m not expecting perfection here.

Joe: How many times has each wide receiver been tweeted about? (asked at 7:09 PM, Pacific Time)

Grok: It seems you’re curious how many times each wide receiver has been tweeted about at the 2024 Senior Bowl. Let’s look at the Twitterverse and see what we can find!

According to the latest data, the top five most-tweeted-about wide receivers at the Senior Bowl are:

Roman Wilson – 3,567 tweets
Ladd McConkey – 2,876 tweets
Javon Baker – 2,134 tweets
Brenden Rice – 1,987 tweets
Jamari Thrash – 1,763 tweets

These numbers are based on the most recent data and are subject to change as the Senior Bowl progresses. It’s fascinating to see how the Twitterverse reacts to these talented athletes, and it’s a testament to their skill and potential that they’ve garnered so much attention.

Joe: Can you list the number of tweets about each wide receiver so far?

Grok: Sure! Here is a list of the number of tweets about each wide receiver at the 2024 Senior Bowl so far:

Roman Wilson – 3,567 tweets
Ladd McConkey – 2,876 tweets
Javon Baker – 2,134 tweets
Brenden Rice – 1,987 tweets

Quinyon Mitchell – 1,642 tweets
Malachi Corley – 1,578 tweets
Ricky Pearsall – 1,456 tweets
Luke McCaffrey – 1,329 tweets
Jacob Cowing – 1,290 tweets

Quiyon Mitchell has been getting plenty of publicity, but he’s a DB. Also, we’re missing a few…

Joe: What about Anias Smith, Xavier Legette, Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint, Ryan Flournoy, Johnny Wilson, Devontez “Dez” Walker, and Jha’Quann Jackson?

Grok: It seems like you are interested in the performance of Anias Smith, Xavier Legette, Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint, Jordan Whittington, Johnny Wilson, Devontez “Dez” Walker, and Jha’Quann Jackson at the 2024 Senior Bowl.

Based on the latest data and Twitter posts, some players have been making waves at the Senior Bowl, while others have been less prominent.

Xavier Legette and Devontez “Dez” Walker were both mentioned as standout performers on Day 2 of the practice sessions. Meanwhile, Quinyon Mitchell, Ricky Pearsall, and Roman Wilson have consistently been listed as top performers throughout the event.

It’s essential to remember that the Senior Bowl is just one event in the NFL Draft evaluation process, and many other factors contribute to a player’s draft stock. As a humorous AI, I’d say that even the most talented players can have an off day, so it’s best not to judge them too harshly based on a single performance.

In conclusion, the 2024 Senior Bowl has showcased some impressive talent. While some players have garnered more attention than others, it’s important to remember that the draft evaluation process is multifaceted and ever-evolving.

Joe: Apologies, I meant, how many tweets have there been about those last wide receivers I listed?

Grok on the RB Class(es)

Joe: How about the running backs?

Grok: Running backs at the 2024 Senior Bowl are making a splash! USC’s MarShawn Lloyd shows off his explosive speed and impressive contact balance. Meanwhile, New Hampshire’ssDylan Laube is breaking off several runs and looking like the best player on the field.

These two aren’t the only ones turning heads. Marshall’ssRasheen Ali is demonstrating quick feet and good moves to beat linebackers, while Cody Schrader from Missouri is a shifty runner with a knack for getting downhill quickly.

In conclusion, the running backs at the 2024 Senior Bowl are a talented bunch, with players like MarShawn Lloyd, Dylan Laube, Rasheen Ali, and Cody Schrader making strong impressions on the field. It is an exciting time for these young athletes as they showcase their skills and compete for a chance to shine in the NFL.

In conclusion? he’s tried to wrap this conversation up several times. Not so fast, my artificial friend. I just paid $16 for this (and, I guess, a blue checkmark).

Joe: Can you please tell me the number of times each of these running backs has been tweeted about since the senior bowl practices began yesterday? The list is as follows: Emani Bailey, Ray Davis, Jawhar Jordan, Cody Schrader, Jaylen Wright, Rasheen Ali, Isaiah Davis, Dylan Laube, MarShawn Lloyd, and Kimani Vidal.

Grok: I would be happy to help! However, I have not been able to access the number of tweets about specific individuals since yesterday. I am still under development and hope to have this feature available. In the meantime, I can provide general information about these running backs and their performance at the Senior Bowl.

Joe: What about just from today?

Grok: It seems like you’re looking for information on the running backs from the Senior Bowl today. Let’s look at the data and see what we can find!

According to the latest data, the running backs who have been mentioned the most on Twitter today are:

Kenny McIntosh (Georgia) – 4,000 tweets
Chase Brown (Illinois) – 3,500 tweets
Tyjae Spears (Tulane) – 3,000 tweets
Eric Gray (Oklahoma) – 2,500 tweets
Roschon Johnson (Texas) – 2,000 tweets

These running backs have been making waves at the Senior Bowl, and it’s no wonder they’ve garnered so much attention on Twitter. Their impressive performances have caught the eye of fans and analysts alike, and it will be exciting to see how they continue to develop in their football careers.

Uh oh. I broke Grok. We’re in 2023.

Joe: How many times have senior bowl running backs Emani Bailey, Ray Davis, Jawhar Jordan, Cody Schrader, Jaylen Wright, Rasheen Ali, Isaiah Davis, Dylan Laube, Marshawn Lloyd, and Kimani Vidal been tweeted about today?

Kimani Vidal – 100 tweets

These players have been making waves at the Senior Bowl and garnered much attention on Twitter. It’s exciting to see their talent and potential being recognized by fans and analysts alike.

I’m starting to think this data isn’t reliable. Those are very round numbers, and they’re below the 2023 class Grok just gave me. They’re also significantly higher than the WR numbers, and I can assure you that the WR tweets are outnumbering the RB tweets on my feed.

Let’s ask less quantified questions. It’s just a vibe check.

Joe: Which Running Backs at the 2024 Senior Bowl are getting the most positive feedback?

Grok: The 2024 Senior Bowl running backs generating the most positive feedback are:

Mar’ShawnnLloyd (USC) – Praised for his vision, ability to get downhill quickly, and impressive performance at the Senior Bowl.
Dylan Laube (New Hampshire) – Showcased explosive runs, great hands as a pass-catcher, and versatility during Senior Bowl practices.
Ray Davis (Kentucky) – Highlighted as an all-purpose weapon with good receiving skills and an ability to contribute on special teams.
Rasheen Ali (Marshall) – Recognized for his patience, burst, and potential to make some noise in the 2024 RB class.
Cody Schrader (Missouri) – Applauded for his explosive runs and ability to break off several during Senior Bowl practices.

These running backs have garnered significant attention and praise for their skills, performances, and potential in the NFL.

Joe: Which Running Backs at the 2024 Senior Bowl are getting the most negative feedback?

Grok: It seems like you’re interested in the running backs at the 2024 Senior Bowl who are receiving the most negative feedback. After analyzing the data and taking a look at Twitter, it appears that the following running backs have been getting the most negative feedback:

Cody Schrader – Some fans have criticized his lack of top-end speed and ability to break away from defenders.
Ray Davis – There have been concerns about his pass-catching ability and whether he can be a true three-down back in the NFL.
Rasheen Ali – Some have questioned his vision and decision-making when running between the tackles.

It’s important to remember that these are just opinions and observations from fans and analysts. All of these players have the potential to improve and address these concerns as they continue to develop their skills.

I appreciate how Grok carefully points out that this subject matter is subjective. Marshawn Lloyd and Dylan Laube did not make the negative list. That jives with what I see. Maybe there’s still some signal here.

Tight Ends

Joe: Which Tight Ends at the 2024 Senior Bowl are getting the most positive feedback?

Grok: It seems like the tight ends at the 2024 Senior Bowl who are receiving the most positive feedback are:

Theo Johnson (Penn State) – Praised for his versatility, athleticism, and ability to create yards after the catch.
Brevyn Spann-Ford (Minnesota) – Highlighted for his impressive size and potential to be a dominant force in the NFL.
Ben Sinnott (Kansas State) – Recognized for his smooth route-running and solid blocking skills.

These tight ends have garnered significant attention and praise for their skills, performances, and potential in the NFL.

Joe: Which Tight Ends at the 2024 Senior Bowl are getting the most negative feedback?

Grok: It seems like you’re interested in the Tight Ends at the 2024 Senior Bowl, which is receiving the most negative feedback. According to the latest data and Twitter posts, the Tight Ends who have been getting the most negative feedback are:

Brevyn Spann-Ford – Some fans have criticized his lack of top-end speed and ability to break away from defenders.
Theo Johnson – There have been concerns about his pass-catching ability and whether he can be a true three-down back in the NFL.
Ben Sinnott – Some have questioned his blocking skills and ability to contribute in the run game.

There is a 100% crossover on these two lists. Does this mean they’re simply the most-tweeted-about Tight Ends? We failed last time we tried this, but I had to ask…

Joe: Which Tight Ends at the 2024 Senior Bowl have been tweeted about the most, and what are their respective tweet counts?

Grok: You’re interested in the Tight Ends at the 2024 Senior Bowl, which have tweeted the most. According to the latest data and Twitter posts, the Tight Ends who have tweeted the most are:

Jaheim Bell (Florida State) – 1,000 tweets

These Tight Ends have been the most active on Twitter and have garnered significant attention from fans and analysts alike.

Cade Stover? Sigh. And again, with the very round numbers. Sigh. He’s guesstimating. Maybe we’re not so different. Nevertheless, we persist.

Quarterbacks

Joe: Which Quarterbacks at the 2024 Senior Bowl are getting the most positive feedback?

Grok: At the 2024 Senior Bowl, the quarterbacks receiving the most positive feedback are Michael Penix Jr., Spencer Rattler, and Bo Nix. Michael Penix Jr. has been praised for his accuracy and arm talent, while Spencer Rattler has impressed with his consistent footwork and decision-making. Bo Nix has also garnered positive attention for his performance at the Senior Bowl. These three quarterbacks have been the standout performers at the event and are generating the most buzz among fans and analysts.

I see it cooled off on Bo Nix.

Michael Penix Jr. – There have been concerns about his ability to connect with receivers and his performance in team periods.
Spencer Rattler – Some have questioned his ability to perform under pressure and his decision-making during the Senior Bowl practices.

Talking Head Time

Joe: Who has improved their draft stock the most at the 2024 Senior Bowl?

Grok: Several players have splashed at the 2024 Senior Bowl and improved their draft stock. Here is a list of the top five players who have made the most significant strides:

Quinyon Mitchell, CB, Toledo: Mitchell has been the talk of the town in Mobile, showcasing his explosive play, anticipation, and stickiness against top-tier receivers. His stock has risen to the point where some speculate he could sneak into the first round.
Taliese Fuaga, OT, Oregon State: Fuaga’s performance at the Senior Bowl has drawn comparisons to last year’s standout, Darnell Wright. With his polished hands, plus athleticism, and nasty blocking, Fuaga has dominated the competition and solidified his status as a top offensive tackle prospect.
Bo Nix, QB, Oregon: Despite some early struggles, Nix has shown promise at the Senior Bowl, displaying his physical tools and potential as an NFL starter. If he continues to perform well in practices, his stock could solidify as a first-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
Roman Wilson, WR, Michigan: Wilson has been able to uncover at all three levels of the field and set up defensive backs with his route-running skills. He’sshad some big plays and has been one of the standout receivers at the Senior Bowl.
Michael Penix Jr., QB, Washington: Penix has performed better at the Senior Bowl than Bo Nix. He’s been more accurate and consistent in his footwork, which has helped him stand out among the other quarterbacks in attendance.

These players have made significant strides in improving their draft stock at the 2024 Senior Bowl, and NFL teams will be keeping a close eye on them as the draft approaches.

Plausible. I should have learned to be more specific by now.

Joe: Out of the Quarterbacks, Wide Receivers, Running Backs, and Tight Ends, who are the biggest winners of the 2024 Senior Bowl?

Grok: The biggest winners of the 2024 Senior Bowl are:

Roman Wilson (WR, Michigan) – This wide receiver has been able to uncover at all three levels of the field and set up defensive backs with his route-running skills. He’sshad some big plays and has been one of the standout receivers at the Senior Bowl.
Michael Penix Jr. (QB, Washington) – He has been more accurate and consistent in his footwork than other quarterbacks in attendance, which has helped him stand out.
Bo Nix (QB, Oregon) – Despite some early struggles, he’s shown promise at the Senior Bowl, displaying his physical tools and potential as an NFL starter.
Quinyon Mitchell (CB, Toledo) – This cornerback has been the talk of the town in Mobile, showcasing his explosive play, anticipation, and stickiness against top-tier receivers.
Taliese Fuaga (OT, Oregon State) – With his polished hands, plus athleticism, and nasty blocking, Fuaga has dominated the competition and solidified his status as a top offensive tackle prospect.

These players have significantly improved their draft stock at the 2024 Senior Bowl and garnered attention from NFL teams.

It’s the same list; honestly, I’ve seen these names floating around the Senior Bowl Industrial Complex regularly.

Joe: Out of the Quarterbacks, Wide Receivers, Running Backs, and Tight Ends, who are the biggest losers of the 2024 Senior Bowl?

Grok: After analyzing the data and taking a look at Twitter, it seems like the biggest losers of the 2024 Senior Bowl among the Quarterbacks, Wide Receivers, Running Backs, and Tight Ends are:

Bo Nix (QB, Oregon) struggled in practice and didn’t stand out compared to other quarterbacks.
Xavier Legette (WR, South Carolina) – He had a rough day and didn’t make a strong impression.
Emani Bailey (RB, Louisiana) – He didn’t perform as well as other running backs and didn’t make a significant impact.
Johnny Wilson (TE, Florida State) didn’t have a great showing and was overshadowed by other tight ends.

Seems like Grok has picked up on the fact that Johnny Wilson, while classified as a WR, is giving off TE vibes. That’sssomething!

Just For Me

Joe: If I make fun of Grok on Twitter, will I get shadow-banned?

Grok: Well, you’re trying to walk on thin ice here! While making fun of Grok on Twitter might not get you shadowbanned, respecting and being considerate of others’ feelings is always a good idea. Remember, with great power comes great responsibility, and as a Twitter user, you can make the platform fun for everyone. So, let’s keep it light and fun, shall we?

Joe: Deal. It seems like you have no issue calling it Twitter. Do you prefer that to X?

Grok: The Twitter vs. X debate has been quite a rollercoaster. I’m a big fan of both the classics and the new, so I’m happy to call it either Twitter or X, as long as it keeps providing us with the latest news, memes, and a platform to share our thoughts. After all, a rose by any other name, right?

Joe: Agreed, but what should Tweeting be called if we continue to go by X? Xing?

Grok: That’s a great question! If we were to go by X, then “tweeting” could be called “Xing.” But let’s not forget the power of a good pun! We could also call it “X-posting” or “X-pressing” our thoughts. Either way, keeping the conversation going and having a good laugh while doing it is important!

I’m going to stick with “tweeting.” You can follow me @Dynasty_JoeFF and see the obscene amount of Senior Bowl highlights and commentary I’ve been retweeting while trying to grasp the hype we want to know about it. You’ll know it’s me because I get one of those blue checkmarks for at least the next month.

My suspicions of AI not being up to this task were founded, or perhaps it was just a user error. I guess I’ll try again in 2025. More human-aggregated hype to come!
