Why would it take a year for this effect to manifest itself?
some guys couldn't leave just yet

You don't find it odd that your statement coincides with the new CBA?
i could have said 5...PP7 was the first major guy to leave early since jamarcus (who left when mlies was celebrated for his ability to keep guys). once PP7 left, the floodgates opened

As the #1 pick in the NFL Draft. I know, details, details.

Mingo, Minter, Logan, Montgomery, Faulk and Ford could've left after the 2011 season.

2013 - 9
2012 - 3
2011 - 2 (PP7 & Ridley)
When you look at the fact that at some point 4 of the 9 in 2013 (Mingo, Reid, Minter & Montgomery) were listed as potential 1st rounders, you are left to question the moves of Logan, Simon, Ware, Faulk & Ford. (Wing & Mathieu were off the team)
Simon - who knows what exactly went into his decision but he wasn't going to vault from the 5th round to the 1st or 2nd so why wait?
Ware - in a huge stable of running backs. If he projects as a 6th rounder and only 7 running backs were picked in the first 3 rounds of the 2012 draft, why wait?
Faulk - was he going to get better in LSU's training room or perhaps a NFL training room?
Ford - see Ware.
Again, can someone make an argument why they would stay other than for our entertainment?
