If there's another mass exodus then I'm giving up on college football.

NFL implementing changes to address underclassmen issue

A friendly reminder. And this was initiated by the NFL due to the problem too many early exits was causing.

quote:

At the heart of the changes are staggering statistics stemming from the 2014 draft class -- of the record 107 who declared, 45 went undrafted. A majority of those 45 remain unsigned by NFL teams as undrafted free agents.


This says that roughly 55% of the early entrants will actually get a contract. It would seem to indicate that most NFL teams will still rely on mainly seniors to build their NFL rosters making early entry a bad bet versus staying in for 4 years.

quote:

Previously, there was no cap on the number of players who could apply for a draft grade from the board. The new limit is set at five per school, with schools allowed to ask for more, if the talent on hand warrants it.
