Right Decision for who? For us LSU fans?? If Lafell has an indication that he will be picked relatively high in the draft then he should do whats best for him (Isn't that what college is all about anyway helping you attain a career/salary that is best for the individual)


Bottom line is he isn't going to b e picked in the 1st round and is projected as a 2nd, even as late as a 3rd rounder in this year's crop of WR. Besides the fact he could come back and improve his draft stock almost two-fold (from 4-5 million to 8-10 million guaranteed) he can also earn an important thing called a college degree. How many times have we seen guys not make in the NFL after a couple years and then are with the regular work force the rest of their lives? Would you rather go out there with a high school diploma or a college degree?

If his stock was higher and he was a sure fire 1st rounder, no brainer to leave really. But if you can improve your draft stock quite some bit, along with earning your degree, no brainer decisino IMO.

By the way he is taking his time with this decision it is obvious he is really weighing his options, getting lots of draft related info, and all in all making a decision that will best suit him and his family.

I just hate when people say he is stupid for coming out early. Hell he could blow out his knee the 1st snap of spring drills and be done forever.
