I say burn the Red shirt if it looks like we can use that kid. Doubtful he stays 5 years anyway, from what I've read about him. I've seen some go as far as say he is the best CB out of High School in more then a couple of years.

I just feel like that such a stretch for any guy that hasn't even been to a college practice yet. So few guys even pan out to be NFL prospects ever, it seems kind of silly to make personnel decisions now based on the slim chance that a kid will actually be leaving early for the NFL. I mean, how many super recruits have we signed and how many of them have actually turned out to be early defectors to the NFL?

JaMarcus
Clayton
Hill
Trev
Reed

That's about all I can think of in the last 10 years or so. I guess you could count Booty, but that was more about losing his starting job at LSU than "leaving early" for the NFL. Just seems like an awfully slim chance for which to burn a redshirt.
