Hate to burst your bubble but mills is evaluated as top 32 prospect on near everyone's board

they played great on Saturday, as our DL struggled to get a pass rush all game.

Mills and Collins can leave early. The NFL will like Collins because of his height, length and versatility.
White and Robinson can't leave yet. They are true sophomores. One more year for both.
Martin is a senior. I know he's been maligned at times, but he's also made some plays. He has a good blend of size and solid speed. I believe he's on the Thorpe list.

On who's board ? Some clown that decides before the season who's relevant, and who's not? If they watch Mills film and judge him by what he has done, he's not a top 32 pick. Just as Anthony johnson was rated high and his play showed otherwise. At this point Collins, Martin, Adams, and White have been far better than him.

Well we lose most definitely Mills and Martin. I would be OK with Collins going (even though he could improve to be a first round pick staying next year) since we get Thomas back.
It's why I love our depth so much. Regardless of those three leaving, we are still freaking loaded back there, plus we get Cutrer coming in with a year of playing JUCO.

I'm definitely no expert but I don't think Mills has enough speed to get him drafted early. If I had to guess and guess only he might be a 4.7 40 guy. That doesn't stop him from playing zone schemes if he shows he has the ball skills and smarts though.
I don't think Collins makes it in the pro's as a corner because he doesn't have the quickness. He does have top end speed, but he can't turn quick enough.
Tredavious white is developing and will be a first rounder before he is done. He stays stride for stride with receivers, can turn and plant exactly as they do. He has good closing speed and pretty good ball awareness. He makes a living out of busting up Wide receiver screens too. What I like most about him is he doesn't act silly after he makes a tackle. He just goes back to the huddle..There is a lot to be said about that workman like attitude.
Rashard robinson. I really don't have a clue yet. I need to see more plays.
Ricky Jefferson and Jamal Adams are really good though. Those guys will be drafted high. If Dwayne Thomas recuperates well this secondary will be very very good next year!

how is paris looking?

I don't see him really at all on defense. I think he's strictly special teams. Don't quote me on that because he probably does play in a few relief spots.

Having seen him playing this season, Robinson may still needs more coaching and development before he is ready for NFL. Two more years as starter under the Chief in competitive SEC will probably make him an elite DB.

Tre White might be the best CB in the SEC right now... Hargreaves is the big named guy and a lock for a 1st round pick, barring injury, but hes had some growing pains being the CB1 for UF in his 2nd year. And battled some injuries. Still a great player though. But I think Tre White is right there with him. Hes solid as a rock back there. Always in good position, crazy smooth and fluid in his back pedal and flipping his hips, plays the ball as good as any DB we have had, very good in run support and solid tackler, and can blitz and be disruptive when we ask him to be. He does not have a weakness in his game.
Meh.... Not sure about that. Collins is great, dont get me wrong. But if he stays another year, he will be part of the same rotation hes in right now. Tre White is the 1 CB that never comes off the field, while Collins and RR rotate. And I dont think that would change if he comes back.
Regardless, hes the type of player that could do better in the NFL than in college. Hes got that size and length that they covet in the NFL now a days. And, if he stays, we could lose all 3 of Tre White, RR, and Collins in the same draft. We would be depleted at the CB spot the next year. But we would be stacked in 2015 if he does stay
And I think Mills has been very blah since the Wisky game. He has a few plays here and there where he does something good, but hes given up a lot this year. And no hes not a 1st round pick.
In regards to Paris... hes been on ST and seen a little PT on D in some games. Regardless, he was EXTREMELY impressive in the spring. I mean he looked like he was a seasoned SEC veteran CB and he should have been in high school. Everyone was very impressed with him during spring. Its just hard to get PT when he has guys like Tre White, RR, Collins, Thomas, etc in front of him. And we also use safeties at the nickel spot as well and has even more guys ahead of him. But i think Paris is gonna be a fine player for us, despite not seeing that much PT right now.

Those are strong words. Don't have a clue yet. That is the same young man that shut down a NFL top 10 pick.. Wow.. Yes all the players can get better. Every DB we have on the team has gotten beat.
Go watch the GA game from last year and others and I think RR is way ahead of the other guys that were on the field during that game.

You dont have a clue what you are talking about. Mills is a 4.5 guy at worst and Collins is one of the best athletes on the team. He's long athletic and fast. Things you just cant teach. His ballskills and technique need a bit of work but are much improved and those are things you can teach. He will be drafted high and do well in the league.

Going to be interesting to see how we handle Cooper.

White and Robinson can't leave being true sophs. I think Mills comes back. Several mock drafts have Collins going high enough to possibly entice him to leave early.

Hopefully we double him like Arkie did. Worked out good for them, and they don't have a Beckwith, Kwon, or an Adams like we do
