Was he really that big of a worry to leave?

Great from a leadership standpoint. Great all around.

Really exciting to see them talk about what is coming back next year. We are going to be really, really good next season.

You do realize he was not a junior?

Third year player. I'm pretty sure you know that's what he meant.

For one reason .....he's an avg wr.


Dural is a very good WR. He would've started on every SEC team this yr other than AU (Coates/Duke).

I for one am excited. This is good news for the Tigers.

I'm referring his NFL readiness.
Nothing to do with his abilities and accomplishments at lsu.

He's a dime a dozen at the next level.
GD some of you people are way too quick to get your panties in a wad.

Glad he's coming back. He's the #1 target for Jennings every play. I'd come back too at least 1 more year and graduate.

Dural caught 37 passes for 758 yards and 7 TD's last year. James Wright caught 24 passes for 304 yaards and 0 TDS in his entire LSU career and got a 4 year $2.27 million contract.

What do you think?

What do I think? I think he was the last WR to make the Bengals, and was drafted in the 7th round. He will get the $432,456 he earned this year, plus the $12,456 he'll get as a signing bonus for next year, and I hope that happens. But he's going to have to fight for the next $450k, which is more than I'll make this year.
He's got 5 out of 16 targets he's had for the year, and that ain't a great recipe for success.


So there's that. With Dural coming back it unquestionably boosts the passing game, and helps his draft stock at the same time. Win win

Shocking. He can run one route and can't get off press man.

Well he's playing behind 2 of the best WR's in the league and he's the youngest WR on the roster. He's getting about the same playing time as 3 other veteran WR's that he's in a rotation with who are making twice as much and all have expiring contracts. That's a pretty good recipe for sticking around.
