re: Who is going pro

Thomas is 100% gone but he is an interesting case.
He will make bank going in the second round and starting his career a year sooner, but barring injury, he is foregoing a shot at a huge rookie contract. He would be returning as far and away WR1 and its not like we wont be throwing the ball around (likely more so) with Nuss at QB.
With his size and speed, he has the potential for the Biletnikoff and being the #1 WR off the board next year. I actually believe he will be a better NFL player than Nabers.

Nabors
We don't have a player named Nabors. Its Malik Nabers. Its really not that hard to spell the name right, do a quick search before posting. SMH

Agreed but everything I am hearing is he is going to make the same mistake Anthony Johnson did and go pro. Supposedly his inner circle is telling him to go pro and develop there. Big fricking mistake.

I guess he and Josh Williams could technically return for a sixth season since they redshirted in 2019. I didn't even think about that.

Lacy and Martinez have another year (2020 recruits), as does Charles Turner (2019 recruit who redshirted) due to the extra Covid year.

Thomas will go late first, which will be great for him. Better to go to a contender. Maybe he can go to Cincy. They will be replacing one of the triplets after this season.

Daniels
Nabors
Wingo
are the only ones that SHOULD go...
Thomas could come back and play into top ten money with Nussmeir throwing to him... I think its worth it to him to take the NIL money and take out an insurance policy because the slot value for him would be worth it.
Diggs will go becaues RB's have to go as juniors damn near because of the short shelf life and they dont make anything now in the NFL.

Add Daniels to the “maybe” list…

Wingo is maxed out all things considered, he's not a 1st round type but has PLENTY of good tape out there. Just dont see him back but I'd love it.
Thomas I would expect is 95% gone but the case could be there to come back to be the unquestioned #1 and sell him
into being a Top 15 overall pick like Nabers will be. Thomas absolutely has the talent to get there but just doesnt quite have enough elite tape out there yet.

Nabers is great after catch. Lacy is really good too.
Leads all WR's in YAC per Reception
Lacy 8.6 YAC per reception
Nabers 6.6
Thomas 5.8
Miss tackles forced after reception
Nabers 24 (72 catches)
Lacy 10 (18 catches)
Thomas 8 (51 catches)
Of Lacy's 18 catches. 15 have been for 1st downs.
His ADOT is lowest of the WR's, yet he leads them in YAC per reception, and YPC overall.
I know what the optics look like trying to argue he is better than Nabers at anything, so I'll save it. But he has some really good underlying numbers when he does catch the ball.

Been meaning to ask, where do you get these stats?
Posted on 11/13/23 at 3:01 pm to ATLTiger
These are from Pro Football Focus
I was kinda going just on eye test but looking up the numbers supported that thought as well lol

correct... he needs to be the clear cut #1 and he would be a an award finalist in the beginning of the year... a case can be also made that nuss is a better thrower for him as well.. take NIL and take out an insurance policy and come back.

Why would Wingo not be able to workout for the combine? He said he could be back for a bowl game. His surgery rehab was pegged at 6 wks
