Don't know specifics. Heard it has to do with his role in offense, lack of touch's, etc. Hope I'm wrong. Guess we'll see at endof season.

Well, with the potential of a rookie salary cap looming next year, I am not sure a 3rd or 4th rounder might not make as much money as a 2nd rounder next year. Don't underestimate the amount of juniors you might see come out this year.

After the season he just had, I could see Shep going out, but the other two did not have great years, especially Barksdale. He was pretty disappointing, along with the rest of the O-line.

I think Barksdale & Sheppead will comeout. Would be surprised if Terrance Toliver leaves to

NO way any of them go out. That mock draft is ridiculous they are talking about Barksdale being the "elite left tackle Manning needs" he is neither elite or a left tackle. craziness

Chad Jones will be drafted as a pitcher. 6'2 Lefty that throws in the low 90's. He'll make more money and would be more valuable to a MLB franchise for his arm.

That's my opinion

That sucks to hear the TT is unhappy. I can understand the frustration with being one of the elite WR prospects out of high school, and not get the opportunity to showcase his talents. He bided his time behind a stacked WR corps here, and then when he gets his chance as a starter he suffers from playcalling. I have feared that he would leave early, but I really hope he comes back.

None of those guys will leave. The only one who might consider is Kelvin Sheppard.

I don't get the reasoning behind leaving because you stats aren't good. that should be more of a reason to stay.
As for Shep not a big name linebacker yet could be greatly helped by another year.
I don't get the Chad Jones to Baseball idea he is a good pitcher but he hasn't pitched a whole game, and who pays these millions and millions of dollars to middle relievers? If he becomes Another thing if you think 6 foot plus pitcher who pitch in the 90's is a rarity go look at a minor league roster. i think he at leas comes back for one more year of football and seas how that goes if he has a big year he could easily make more playing football

Draft is to deep at LB for Sheppard to enter IMO.

He's relief/closer. They make a good living.. and that's supposedly where his heart is. With the amount he's blown up in football this year.. not sure he leaves though.

I don't think it wise for any to leave. Keep in mind some get really bad advice from friends and family that mean well.

tolliver needs to look at how brandon lafell improved his status by staying another year. And ciron black as well. right now he is third or fourth round at best. He would be the go to guy with an improved qb.

He shouldn't be happy!!!! He drops more balls than he catches. I still think we beat Fla if he catches that EASY out route at their 35.

I hope he isn't happy, he should be writing public apologies for drops and alligator arms!

Dude cant catch a cold in traffic, NO shot at sticking in the league without proving differently
