3rd year removed from high school though I believe. So he is eligible for the draft.

He went to Hargrave his first year out of high school, so even though he is only a soph, he will still be 3 years out of high school

Like Larry Fitz with pit a few years ago

i think lafell could go in the first round since there werent that many GREAT draft eligible wide receivers this years (excluding the obvious crabtree). The majority of the big name wide receivers were young. But i dont think Lafell leaves. I think he wants to finish his career at LSU on a high note.

I hope Harvin and Tebow comes out.They are such great players for Florida,it would be a huge blow.Also,I would love to see a player that gets hurt every week try to stick it out in the league.Harvin is so talented,but is so injury prone.As far as Tebow,he looks like Alex Smith,except he's more of a power runner than speed guy.I'd be shocked if he ran less than a 4.7

Cody for Alabama has already said he is staying for his senior year.. Andre Smith is going early though....With the recruits from last season and this season as well as the junior college stud that just committed, Bama shouldnt miss Smith as much as any other school would....JMHO

I know T Cody said he is staying earlier this year, but if bama beats Florida and wins the national championship I think with all the press he would get he could go pro. He'd get most of the national attention on that defense leading up to the bcs title game

Tebow has already said he's staying till he graduates, and I don't think Harvin's injuries will hurt his draft chances any more than Glen Dorsey's hurt his.

It'll be nice if we actually have a chance to beat Georgia next year.........that's one of only two teams in the SEC I truly hate.

You may be right, I hope not but maybe..Cody has said that he feels like he owes the university and Saban for taking a chance on him when nobody else would..For what thats worth, maybe not much..

True, but Saban used to say that is you can get in the first round, then leave.

A superior performance by Cody in the next 2 games might be enough to get him in the top 24 picks. Nose tackles are at a premium (both demand and dollars) in the NFL and with the 2010 salaries adjustments looming, it might make sense (dollars too) for Cody to bolt now.

He does possess the qualities of size and quickness.

Its amazing how he went from an overweight lineman to talk about being a 1st round pick..When he weighed over 400 lbs, nobody wanted to give him a chance until they saw him dunk a b-ball...What a difference a year makes....

Right.

Why? He was the SEC's second leading rusher and in the top 10 receptions leaderboard. He ran for 130 against a UF rush defense that kept C. Scott to 35 yards. AND, of course, Arkansas does not promise to be any better than they were this year.

But please, explain the ridiculousness of that prediction.

Glenn Coffee is going pro.. He caught alof of flak (sp) about jumping ship but I don't think its that bad of a move considering, Ingram is back plus with Richardson coming in and expecting playing time as a freshman..He probably felt that after his great season this year that he couldnt really benifit from coming back for his senior year and risking injury and playing time for that matter....They are saying he'll prob go in the 3rd round.. I think its a good move for him.....
