2021 SENIOR BOWL WATCH LIST: Zion Johnson, Boston College,...Johnson is coming off a dominant season in 2019 for the Eagles.

A three-time ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week selection in 2019, Johnson was a key member of a BC offensive line that was among the national leaders in sacks allowed and rushing yards. - Boston College Football

2020 WUERFFEL TROPHY PRESEASON WATCH LIST: Isaiah Graham-Mobley, Temple, senior, linebacker,...Graham-Mobley has been one of the most productive Temple players both on and off the field. He was the team's third leading tackler in 2018 with 70 stops and was among the team leaders again in 2019 before missing the final five games with an injury. He reached these marks despite not starting a single game. He was the first non-starter in school history to earn a single-digit jersey - an honor reserved for Temple's toughest players. Currently a graduate student with a bachelor's degree in Media Studies and Production, the Upper Merion, Pa., native is engaged in nearly every activity that the team has trumpeted but more importantly, used his influence as team leader to recruit more players to participate and represent Temple in the community. - Temple Football

04/25/20 - *AJ Dillon, Jr/2020, Boston College, 6-0, 247 (DS#9 RB) + More +

After years of hard work, running back AJ Dillon of Boston College football has earned his big break. Though the selection process wasn't in the format he would've expected at the beginning of the year due to changes as a result of COVID-19, Dillon nonetheless had the coveted chance to hear his name called by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell 2020 NFL Draft on Friday night. Dillon, projected by many top NFL news sources to go no higher than the fourth round, was selected at No. 62 overall in the second round by the Green Bay Packers.

After an unparallelled three-year career with BC, including records in both career rushing yards and career rushing touchdowns-4,382 yards and 38 touchdowns, respectively-he has finally earned a spot in the big leagues. In addition to his BC records, he also finished his career at BC just 227 yards shy of the ACC record for career rushing yards. Dillon's selection at No. 62 is the highest selection of a BC running back since William Green was taken No. 16 overall by the Cleveland Browns. In fact, he's only the third BC running back to be selected in this century, with Green and Andre Williams as the only other two at his position. - The Heights

04/17/20 - John Phillips, rSr/2020, Boston College, 6-6, 310 (DS#31 OG) + More +

The more the date for Boston College's Pro Day kept changing, from its original March 18 as uncertainty grew amid the coronavirus pandemic, the more offensive lineman John Phillips began to realize that it probably wasn't going to happen at all. "It was disappointing but also a little confusing, to be honest with you," Phillips said. "At first, everything seemed like it was being pushed back. At the time, we were all very optimistic that this would be a two-, three-week, maybe a month deal, and then actually some time like right now we'd be doing our own Pro Day. It was just getting postponed and postponed." With sports shut down, the NFL Draft process has been dramatically altered for players and teams.

But after grinding for 10 weeks under trainer Derek Touchette at Total Athletic Performance in Tampa, Phillips couldn't let the work go to waste. With hopes of hearing his name called this coming week, Phillips had to come up with a way to make sure he got the exposure he needed. After some brainstorming with his agent, Clifford Brady of Capital Sports Advisors, Phillips decided to put together a sort of virtual pro day. "That was something my agent thought would be smart to do, and it turns out it's what a lot of people around the country were doing," Phillips said. Phillips, a Phoenix, N.Y., native, returned to Tampa, where Touchette helped him put together film to send to teams. - Boston Globe

04/15/20 - *AJ Dillon, Jr/2020, Boston College, 6-0, 247 (DS#9 RB) + More +

Former Boston College running back AJ Dillon initially planned on making the 2020 NFL Draft a family affair. Dillon wanted to share his defining moment at a get-together in his hometown of New London, Conn., but his plans got deep-sixed by the global COVID-19 pandemic. Dillon also planned on visiting with his former teammates at BC Pro Day on March 18. Dillon has been living and training in Orange County, Calif., since departing the Heights at the conclusion of the 2019 season. He will learn his next football destination by monitoring the draft on television in relative solitude while awaiting the subsequent phone call. "My plan was obviously to go back to Connecticut and probably go out somewhere because I have a huge extended family," said Dillon during a Zoom conference on Monday.

"I wanted to have a big party at a restaurant and watch it, but you have to adjust and I'm going to stay here in Orange County. I didn't want to risk getting on a plane and bringing that back home to my family. "I have friends that did that and their whole family got sick so it's not worth it to me." Dillon's first priority after declaring for the draft was to get into "Combine shape." He prepped for February's NFL Combine at the Athletic Gaines performance center in Woodland Hills, Calif. Dillon posted an overall grade of 84 with a dash speed of 4.53, a 41-inch vertical leap and a 131-inch broad jump. He made 23 bench reps at 225 pounds. "I have no doubt in my mind that I was going to go to the Combines and put up the numbers and perform the way I did," said Dillon. - Boston Herald

Max Richardson established a dominant presence on the football field last season and secured a place alongside the outstanding Boston College linebackers in this century. Richardson, a 6-0, 230-pound, redshirt junior weakside linebacker from Duluth, Georgia, led the ACC with 72 solo tackles, was third in total tackles (108) and 30th nationally with 14.5 tackles for a loss. He had five games with 10 or more tackles and was voted All-ACC second team. Richardson thinks he can do better next season after learning the new system instituted by new head coach Jeff Hafley. "The most important thing to my development last year was focusing on the details and all aspects of the game," said Richardson.

"That, with working hard to be bigger, stronger and faster. I had a great linebackers' coach (Bill Sheridan) who really taught me the mental aspects of the game and I was playing with a great bunch of linebackers. It was a great experience and I'm hoping to build on that next year." New linebackers coach Sean Duggan played the position at BC from 2011-2014 and came from St. Xavier High School in Cincinnati - the same institution that produced All-ACC backers Luke Kuechly and Steven Daniels. Through Duggan's initiative, Richardson has made a case study of Kuechly, that rare individual who competed at the highest levels of the NCAA and the NFL through intellect and brute force. - Boston Herald
