Does anyone think he bolts this year? I have seen his name on a couple of websites predicting around the 4th round.

Middle third. He's had an explosive year and will likely be All SEC 1st team. Lot of teams are in need of OLBs. Does he leave? Probably. 70/30

He is a guy who could rise or drop.

His size is a big issue...and if he weighs in light and his time is not elite, then you might see him fall off some teams' draftable player list.

Of course, he may bulk up, and still run a great time...and all of a sudden move up the board as well.

That's why there is a chance he could come back. He has real risk.

One more solid year at LSU would shoot his potential up quite a bit. Right now I'd guess round 4.

Hey Kwon, I know a lot of scouts and they said you would go undrafted...better stay for another year.

I'd say 4th round right now even if he bulks up. Hopefully he stays another year. but we'll see.

6'2 227lbs.... He's big enough. CJ Mosley was a 1st round pick and was 6'2 234lbs at the combine.

The league is changing. LBers have to be able to run sideline to sideline and play in space. Kwon can do that.

He's not going to improve his stock due to his size so he gone with Hunter and probably Alexander with MAYBE Hawkins depending on if they can convince him to come back to play LT.

Well, at LSU being an undrafted free agent is reason enough to bold. So, yeah, he and just about every other draft eligible JR or Soph is probably gone.

He would absolutely benefit from another year of established play. During that time, I would suspect he could add some quality size (@10-12 lbs).

Comparing him to Mosley at this point is foolish at best.

With all that you just said

HE GONE.

Haven't just about all draft eligible LSU players with any kind of NFL potential left in the last 3 years with the exception being la'el collins.

[quote]he NFL is trying to regulate the number of underclassmen who declare for the league’s draft each year and has made two major changes to the way players can request information. According to an NFL.com report, only five total players from each college team can now request an NFL grade from the College Advisory Committee, which evaluates college talent and gives feedback to prospective players. There were no team limits prior to the ruling, and close to 250 underclassman requested a grade before the 2014 NFL Draft.

The second significant change is the draft grade underclassmen will receive from the advisory board. In the past, players would receive one of five grades: first round, at least second round, at least third round, fourth to seventh round or undrafted. Now, the only three options college players can receive are first round, second round, or stay in school. College football coaches received an email from NFL Executive Vice President Troy Vincent regarding the changes earlier this week. “We want the kid to make an informed decision,” Vincent told NFL.com. “Use our resources, make an informed decision. Each institution has those resources for every prospect and every head coach. The numbers and the facts speak for themselves.” Of the 107 underclassmen who declared for this year’s draft, 45 went undrafted, according to NFL.com.

Alabama head coach Nick Saban spoke to the media Thursday, supporting the NFL’s concern for the increasing number of undrafted underclassmen. “All these players that went out for the draft, they went out for the draft late or didn’t get drafted, they were potential draft picks next year,” Saban said. “They’re not in the draft next year. They’re not playing college football either.” Read more at: LINK ]

If you're not 1st or 2nd round, you're advised to stay in school by the NFL advisory board. Only 5 five can be submitted unless an petition is requested by the school for more. Still, many will likely be advised to stay in school for another year. It's in their best interest and the NFL doesn't want so many underclassmen giving up their college eligibility and end up going undrafted and unsigned.

These kids all think that they're the tits and think they will make it no matter what. They can all increase their draft stock with another year except for maybe the Jalens and Vadal IMO.
