Whaaaaaaaat. Why. I don't think he'll get drafted.

but maybe he feels like he'll get picked up undrafted which is more of a sure thing than trying to rehab.. coming back.. and looking bad maybe..

Where is he in his recovery.

I think its a good move for him. He's probably right about rehab and nfl doctors, and even if he can play another year in college he would risk further injury and all of his draft stock.

He seems like a good late round pick for a team with a little flexibility.

Lattimore goes in the 4th Rd with the injury. Book it.

Good move IMO. Best of luck to him... I always enjoy watching him run.

Smart move, he might not be a high draft pick anymore but its his best chance of playing his way into a big contract. Besides rehabbing with an NFL PT staff versus college is night and day. He won't have to pretend to be a student anymore

I hope he gets drafted somewhere. I thought he was done after this latest injury. Looked horrific.
