With the bowl game now over. What juniors will be NFL bound? I think Chris Jones is the surest name to go. Any more thoughts? Bear, Ross?

I feel like Bear will stay. I think he may need one more year to perfect his game. And honestly I would love to see AJ Brown play a year under Bear and Fred.

Doubt it. The reality is, outside of Jones, all of our Jrs will get "return" grades from the draft committee.

Maybe BBrown decides to go because he's tired of SEC Ball. Wilson can still improve his game.

Bear is the best blocking wideout I've ever seen at State

That DB in Baton Rouge he destroyed on Dak's keepr was rolling around in the end zone twitching.

Nope. Has he said that he's coming back? 3 reasons why he gone: 1) the improvement does not justify another year because he has the measurables, 2) he's currently projected a 2-3 rd pick, and 3) He's got a family and it will be a financial decision.

Anyone who gets a good grade should go and best of luck to them.

Back to back nine wins seasons is a great way to leave if the grade level is there.

Where did you see Bear projected at 2/3?
I think Ross is gone too

Looks like somebody needs to be introduced to Google.

ETA: Hard to receive a "return" grade when said player doesn't request a grade. Hmm...

I don't know how DeRunnya isn't higher on this board. He's the tallest and probably the best blocking WR (as mentioned by Bo) and has great hands, great dexterity, etc. What more could you ask for? Let some team take him in the third round and get a steal.

I don't know, I think he is about right on the rankings. He does have size and blocks great but I think he is still raw wrt route running and getting a clean release from the line and, as has been argued on this board before, he tends to catch with his body rather than his hands. If he declares I hope he gets picked by a team that can keep him down the roster a bit and teach him. He certainly has potential to be a pro but he isn't an immediate impact player if you ask me.

I am not knocking him. He's a great dawg and I'm a big fan of his. I hope he comes back and comtinues to develop in college.

Fair. He's a guy that he could feasibly stay or go, probably a coin flip, so it'll be interesting to see what he does. Obviously I hope he comes back. I will still disagree a little on his placement on the board because I think his size, blocking ability, and being the best receiver in the SEC (so constantly getting some of the best DBs in the nation at this level covering him this year) could outweigh the negative factors enough to push him higher.

Because he's the good looking blonde at the bar alone on NYE.

Sure, she's got no career, a couple failed engagements, and a **** family, but that's good enough for someone to take a very expensive risk.

I think they may all come back. Jones

Played with little effort this year and he Needs to come back and grow up. Ross is the best prospect but I expect he will come back.

I rarely have insider style info, but I'm here to tell you Beniquez Brown isn't going anywhere. Mom is pretty adamant about getting that degree.

So you saw Bear in Atlanta, around 12 hours after his bowl game, and he 'says he is with his agent'. What does that mean? You're saying you spoke to him and his response was 'I'm with my agent'. Nice try, Jabroni.

My guess is that Jones and Bear will be drafted a round later than if they came back but that they are willing to make that trade off and have VERY productive NFL careers. Fred should come back as the feature.

Maybe Bear's uncle can settle this, but I've heard that he's also wanting a degree before he leaves. Would be the first in his entire family.

While one play does not define a career

I might have benched B Brown for the rest of the game yesterday following the BS "tackle" that he tried to make in the backfield in the 2nd qtr. I was already into the bourbon by this point, so my memory's a little hazy, but he came blowing through the right side of the line on a play at some point during the 1st half, and he had a chance to drop Brissett for somewhere around a 7 yard loss. The only problem is that rather than try to make any sort of semblance of an actual tackle, Brown just lowers his shoulder and weakly bumps it into the side of the QB.

Most pathetic attempt at a tackle that I've seen since Redmond's whiff on Walton during last year's Egg Bowl

I was trying not to bore everyone with a long post. Also, take note of the disclaimer young one. So if you want the full story grab some popcorn cuz here it goes. Got on the 7 am flight from CLT this morning and a few min before a short bald guy with no school attire gets on. Then right after Bear gets on. Both sit in the first class section . We land in ATL and think maybe they catch a plane to Starkville. Get to the "A" terminal and Bear is getting some food. So my group walks to our terminal. A guy from my group walks out of the restroom and Bear is headed that way. The guy asks for a picture with his son and Bear agrees and says "I'm down there with my agent" (saying after he gets out).

Both Bear and the "agent" get on the plane to Jackson and sit on the third row in first class.

So like I said before take it for whatever that's worth. So maybe you need to take whiff of what you're cooking (if we're using The Rock terms).

Maybe the "agent" was somebody from the school idk. However, found it odd that the guy wasn't wearing any school attire and Bear was. Wouldn't surprise me either way if he goes or stays.
