but with all these players going to the draft, the recruits see how their chances of going pro are much more likely if they become tigers



I know what you mean, I know it happens all every year, there's always going to be a player/players that leave but I hate to see them go.

But you are right with this statement. We, as fans, just embrace them and sometimes it sucks to see them go pro. Well, suck isn't the right word but you know what I mean.

I always wish them well. Regardless of what NFL team they end up on.

If Tharold Simon has a big year I can see him being a top 10 pick, maybe even top 5. These days the NFL is stacked with big receivers and TE's

What did Simon say about leaving after next year? If you don't know word for word just give me an idea.

Simon with his measurables will go the highest of them all in my opinion. Kid is a freak athlete to have that size and ball skills for a corner.

I've read where Mingo could go as high as top 5 with a big year. Pass rushing DEs are premium.


This. Mingo will be a top 10 pick if he is injury free. His size and speed are off the charts.

Totally OT but I'm watching ESPNU right now, & a Bama commercial comes on saying that Bama's titles aren't just tradition. They are habit. The commercial ends saying, "Does the road to the 2012 NC start in Tuscaloosa?"

I vomited a little in my mouth. Makes me sick. ESPN is already starting their campaign!

Your right it could happen. Mongo is a specimen he could go extremely high because he is unique. He has the size strength and speed that no one else has and the nfl is all about having what no one else does

Let's not jump at the thought of our guys owning the draft in '13. Enjoy what we have on the team now y'all.


Revenge Tour '13 starts soon.

Matheiu is not an NFL player on defense in any possible position.

And Mettenburger is not a top 15 quarterback period. And even if he was, he wont get there throwing 15 passes a game at LSU.

Trust me, we won't be redesigning our entire offense .

mingo, montgomery, and reid are all first round locks whenever they come out.

tm7, logan, simon, faulk all have a shot but the best guess is only 1 or 2 (at most) of that group will be 1st round.

Who cares?
I'd take a W on Jan 9th over having the first 22 picks in the draft.

Whoa man. His measurables alone grade out as first round. If he has decent production at LSU ala Jamarcus, he will be a pretty damn high pick.
