Malcolm Smith, Seattle Seahawks--A seventh-round pick in the year 2011 Malcolm Smith, a former Trojan was caught up with his college coach Pete Carroll. Here's what Rotoworld had to say regarding the pick:

Smith is a friend of Pete Carroll's who brought him in for an official pre-draft meeting a few weeks back. Although only a two-year veteran at weak-side linebacker at USC, Smith is a fitness superstar. He benched 225 lbs 28 times at the Trojans at their March 30 Pro Day, and ran 4.47 at 6'1'', 225. Smith is regarded as a special team player, as well as a possible nickel backer in Seattle.

Smith was initially an extra-teams player and part-time player. Smith was able to play more in 2013and had his greatest success to date. Smith had a coming out party during the playoffs getting Richard Sherman's ball to clinch an elusive win in the NFC Championship Game and running back a pick-six during the Super Bowl, winning the MVP award.

Smith is an inspirational success story for those who weren't invited the Combine. Smith said to MMQB that he's angry at being overlooked and is using it as a continuous motivational tool:

"It's not about how you begin it's what you do after," he said. "Let this humble your heart, and let it bring you fire. You'll notice that I have the draft from 2011 saved on my computer. I'd suggest that once every month, at a minimum, I open it up and scroll through and go through all the namesfrom 1 to 254. I still do. I'd like to look at all those who were selected ahead of me and what transpired to them. Winning the Super Bowl validated my progress and confirmed that I could play."

The most significant Combine exclusions included Wyoming quarterback Brett Smith, who was one of the 13 juniors who didn't make it to Indianapolis. South Carolina defensive end Chaz Sutton didn't also receive an invite, despite racking up nearly as many sacks with teammates Jadeveon and Jadeveon. San Jose State wide receiver Chandler Jones was David Fales' top target, but He didn't have a cheap madden 24 coins chance to play alongside his teammate on the field at the Combine. Also, Washington quarterback Keith Price felt disdainful of his behavior and pledged to work harder to earn the status of an Madden NFL 24 starter.

The Combine is still a significant event however it's still feasible for players who weren't selected to get the Madden NFL 24 shot with enough effort and motivation. Pro days, private workouts , and training camp invitations will be even more crucial to the players, in order to make the scouts regret not inviting them.

Malcolm Smith didn't go to Indianapolis, but he did attend Disney World. We're guessing he's OK with the sacrifice.
