Dural will be the only NFL eligible ready player on this team. All others should stay!

That's not true. At all.

The new limitation is 5 draft Evals for underclass men per school, with exceptions to be granted in special cases.

Got the talent? You're a special case. It won't stop anything.

Hunter is gone. Bump this thread in a few months if y'all scouts disagree. His athleticism alone will get him drafted.

Johnson, Ford, and Wing all come to mind.

I think Hawkins and Dural stay. They have a chance at being high draft picks and another year will get them closer to that goal.


You're joking, right?

Would not surprise me at all if Hunter, Kwon Alexander, Mills, and Vadal Alexander all declared after this year.


Nice. That's quite a list of individuals that would be drafted near the bottom rounds or be undrafted based on what we've seen this year.

I don't know about Dural and Hawkins would have to get promised the LT spot to stay. It's really not the tackles. It's moreso the middle of the line (guards and center) that are the problem.

Dural right now, is projected at 58 receptions for 1600 yards and 13 TDs. IMO, because he is so dangerous downfield. and gets so many looks, he will easily hit 60 rec for 1200 yards and 10 TDs. A guy that is 6'2 190 with 4.4 speed, big vertical and really good hands, IDK.

He might stay to graduate here. or to help the younger receivers, or just wants to win big in college. On the other hand, his stats and measurables scream early entry.

There are new rules on early declaring. Each school can have a max of 5, the ones leaving have to earn a grade of First or Second round, if they don't they can even be part of the draft.


Wtf??? That's not even remotely close to accurate. As a matter of fact, that's so far from accurate that it looks as though you just made that shite up and hoping someone will believe you.

And on another note, frick some of you others blasting players saying they suck and won't get drafted. Some of those guys have done very well, and are not indicative of the team effort all around that you have seen on the field. We have the absolute fricking worst, canabalizing fans I have ever seen.

Going to be very difficult to replace his 1 sack and 0 hurries.

Doesn't really matter if they are stinking it up in Tiger Stadium- if they have good combine numbers- they'll get drafted by somebody. ie The Freak.

That's the thing, we don't know. People talk about not losing anything, but that disregards the fact that players get better. Hunter has 1 sack right now, but there's no reason to think he doesn't continue to get better. Just be haze these guys aren't stars before there senior years doesn't mean they're dead weight.

EDIT: Freak wasn't drafted.

Kwon is way undersized and not nearly productive enough to be an NFL linebacker at this point.


Not productive enough? He's in on just about every play. By far our best defensive player. NFL will love Kwon

I agree. I don't know about Kwon's size as it relates to the NFL. If it's based on production, he'll be drafted early. He's had a couple of injuries, but when He's out there.. He's the man on this defense.

In the past, there were five categories: first round, at least second round, at least third round, fourth-sevenths rounds or undrafted. Now, there will be only three: first round, second round or stay in school.
I like it.

Stay in school is just another was of saying undrafted. They can still opt for the draft.
