🏈 Junior Departures

[It Takes Eleven]

With all the talk of how few scholarship seniors we have this year, I started wondering how many spots we'll have to award this February. Who are potential departures from our Junior class? Milliner? Fluker? Lacy?

RTR,

I could see up to 8 of the juniors leaving (Belue, Mosley, Steen, Lacy, Fluker, McCarron, Milliner, and Stinson) - all dependent on the season they have and how their draft stock increases. If it were me, I wouldn't leave early unless I could get 1st or 2nd round money, 2nd round is even questionable.

That being said, the ones I think will leave due to 1st or 2nd round money...

• Lacy
• Fluker
• McCarron
• Milliner
• Mosley

We have a few seniors that are almost locked for 1st round, so they will take away spots from the Juniors above...so this has an impact.

• 1st Round - Warmack (already being rated in the top 3-5 by some folks) and Barrett Jones.
• 1st -3rd Rounds - Nico Johnson.

3 defensive lineman with Square, Williams, Dial...not sure where they end up going - haven't really looked to see how they are getting rated.

• Jesse has the bigger potential to go in earlier rounds outta the three

Not sure Lacy goes that high, at least not yet.

Not sure Lacy goes that high, at least not yet.

I'm definitely going to agree with Duder here. Lacy's a GOOD college RB, and does a very good job, but VERY few RB's go in the first 2 rounds anymore.

Now the part that I don't disagree with (atleast not completely), would be the fact that Lacey very well could leave early and enter the NFL draft. As was mentioned above, there's a very good chance that all of this talent coming in behind him will be cutting in to his number of touches. This could be his best chance as far as his draft stock is concerned.

I could see Fluker leaving.

With Dee and Belue we'll have to see how the rest of their season goes...both are talented, no doubt.

Mosley is still a little thin, and that might just be me being picky, but I definitely think that he's a guy that would benefit from another year in the weight program before becoming a legit 1st Rounder.

I don't see Steen or Stinson going. While they're both talented, I just don't think either are ready to be early round picks right now...but then again, let's see how their seasons go.

McCarron's kind of tough to judge. He's really good, no doubt, but there's still a lot of question marks with him. I could be wrong about all of these guys, and for the most part this is not based off of anything I have read or heard, just my opinion. But I would think out of all of the underclassmen that could be drafted high this year, Fluker easily has the best chance of being drafted in the 1st or 2nd round.

No way Belue jumps after one year... Dee is gone if he continues the season hes having... Fluker is def gone... No way Stinson is jumpin (dont see where in the world that comes from)... Doubt Mosley goes either... AJ is a possibility, Lacy is a possibility. Just hope we can keep a few of the ones that look likely to jump to the NFL.
