Anybody with any actual football knowledge has had him slipping in their drafts in recent weeks...Mostly in the 15-25 range. As more people move past the baseless media hype, I suspect more will follow.

With the backlash, I honestly wouldn't be shocked if he returned. Would give scUM a dangerous returnman next year, but defensively, he is what he is. I don't think he's gonna improve.

And he ain't gonna grow either - too slow for safety, too small for LB. You have to play him in 15 different positions to keep the other guys offense/defense guessing.

Has anyone tried him at shortstop?

I'm not one to question the intelligence of someone attending the "Harvard of the midwest". But, with all the talent they are losing on defense combined with him being exposed this year, while still somehow maintaining a pretty high draft value would make it appear that returning would be about the dumbest thing he could do.

It will be really interesting to see if he gets a real honest eval and someone tells him that you are not a first rounder because you couldn't cover your own bed with a blanket let alone an NFL receiver. He just might return.

I seriously can't see him going in the first two rounds at LB...I just can't. Way too small, plays out of position, over-pursues, avoids major contact, can't shed blockers, negligible cover skills...but he can bust a big return every blue moon so I guess that makes him a draft prospect.

Aha! What we didn't know is that "Harvard of the Midwest" scientists are working to increase his already fast twitch speed as we read this...
