Matt Forte's Magical Season Continues

Update: Here are video highlights of the game.

Proving that his 2000+ yard season was no fluke, Matt Forte undoubtedly impressed NFL scouts this week at the Senior Bowl. He capped off the week in style as he was named MVP of the Senior Bowl. Forte led the South team with 59 rushing yards on 8 carries and also caught 3 passes for 38 yards.

Running back is by far the deepest position in the 2008 draft, but Matt Forte has definitely shot up draft boards. Next up for Forte will be the scouting combine in February and Tulane's Pro Day later this spring. Only 4 Green Wave players have been drafted in the first round; Forte could very well be the 5th.
