I don't think anyone knows what Key is thinking. If you remember he was torn about playing his junior year, then he had a shoulder injury and was way out of shape. Who knows? He was a 1st rounder prior to this year and because of his half out season, I don't see any NFL team paying him 1st round money. As a matter of fact, 2nd round money is a stretch. I'd take a chance on him in the 3rd.
Buddy, you are absolutely crazy if you think he falls outside of the top 10! Unless he can't run at the combine or just absolutely blows up to 300 pounds, he is going to be a top 10 pick. If NFL teams picked Clowney #1 they will definitely take Arden Key in the top 10.

Count me as crazy, too.
After this year, I don't see Key as a top ten pick and not even a top first round pick.
The combine is important, but interviews, personality tests, background checks and medical history will have a material impact on where a player goes who has this many issues arising in the last year.
Key played one full, healthy game this year and did well. Top ten picks are expected to contribute week end and week out.

Lmao. Name one single thing I've trolled on? You post with the mentality of an 18 year old, or less. I hope that's the case and you aren't 40. A review of your post history reflects countless O bashing and program bashing. Nothing ever positive. In fact, if someone makes a positive thread, you are one of the first in to shite on it. Keep up the good work. Your attitude will take you far in life. What am I saying, you already know it all I'm wasting my time. No more though.
Wow. What a douche hole.

LSU fans need to fricking stop eating our own and understand I juries Happen and effect performance.

The “ not eating your own” concept has more appeal if “your own” don’t quit on you....

Some NFL draft experts have him at #9 overall pick....fact

Every good player with an injury apparently “quits”
Regardless of how many games they play injured.

I say it's best that the head case moves on. Bye.

It has nothing to do with the offseason issues. The distractions have developed during the season. Key has done great the last couple of years, but just doesn't seem to have his heart in it this year. Will he play? Can he play? Is he injured? What's wrong with him? He's not at practice. Will he get back into condition. His finger is injured. Is he gonna play? What's his status? Last year he played with heart and passion. Not nearly so this year.

What other red flags? How about being a cryptic enigma for nearly 6 months. We still have no idea...
I think he should go now. If he stayed, he couldn't improve his draft stock too much, history shows he probably wouldn't get healthy and we've got some young studs in the waiting.
With that said, I recognize that these guys are just kids and that we subject them to pressures they're often not ready for.

Should Key stay, get healthy and move up?
He’s going top 10... how much more can he want?
Key is a gamble pick only due to his ?problems off the field.
I have no idea what his personal issues are and I am sure the scouts know.
There is no doubt a healthy Key is worthy of a 1st round pick but a kid with issues[?] is a gamble.
Good luck Arden Key and always a Tiger favorite

I’d be surprised to see a top 10 pick used on him after this year. Just like I was surprised to see La’El not get drafted. It happens.

Another college season is just as likely to hurt as to help. His potential draft status is based on last season not this one. Another year like this one and he would regret staying likely after he lost his starting job to a more committed athlete. For whatever reasons, he’s done here and it shows.

His stock would definitly go up if he got healthy. He had some poor performances when he was playing hurt. He would be great if he stayed and was healthy.

His money will be made on the first contract, as there may not be a second. JR 2.0

Is he smarter to stay to end up a top pick next year? Or will the year risk too much?
If he aint playing in the bowl game then carry ya arse!

What’s funny about 9th overall? He’s one of the best two or three pass rushers in the country when he’s playing 100%. The fact that he looked awful this year doesn’t change that.
The only thing GMs want to know is whether or not he really wants to play football. He can convince them of that with a good combine and good interviews. He doesn’t need an entire year of colllege to do that.

8/10 very solid attempt sir 
If serious
, he gone and rightfully so. There is zero upside for him to stay, zero.
He should play in the bowl game though, but I do not think he does.
