I saw Leshoure and Wilson announced today. Have had Watt and Clay announce so far. Iowa's guys are having a presser tomorrow. Not sure where Prater is leaning, nor Sash. Any other Big Ten announcements?

Martez is a 5th rounder at best IMO.....

It was reported that Clay and Watt were leaving for the pro's.

The only thing that will hold him back is concerns about the neck. I think he'll be in the league a while and maybe not as a starter but he could stick as a special teamer at first. He's too gifted to not make it.

That was my thinking. I bet he goes in the 3rd or higher. He'll be one of those guys that after OTAs every year the coaches rave about and the beat reporters write fluff pieces about, but he will never pan out.

Seriously he will be higher than 5th round. He's big (6'4" 250) runs fast (4.6 or better) and can hit. He'll be a 3rd rounder at worst.

I'll be sure to bump this thread, whether I am right or wrong.

He'll benefit from not having to shed blockers.

I think you asked this before, J.J. Watt is entering the draft.

Prater back for the Hawkeyes.

McNutt returns for Iowa. Sash is leaving.

Good news on Prater and McNutt.

Prater confused me why he would be even thinking of it. I know he was 1st team All Big Ten but it was all on numbers on not on the 'eye test'. I think this was McNutt's best decision. He probably gets drafted later this year but I think with a year focusing on his speed and with putting up some really good numbers, he'll move up quickly because of his size.

As for Sash, he's the one I think the team will miss most. Both safeties are now gone and there are really no experienced options behidn them. In a cover 2, they are the most important position on the D and you hope the replacements can fill in well (considering both guys have started every game the last 3 years)

If I can go out of a conference real quick, Brandon Weeden and Justin Blackmon said they are coming back to school and if you want a longshot to be national champion next year, this could be the team.

Beat the team they just throttled in the Alamo Bowl, go to A&M, Missouri, and the team they struggle against Oklahoma.

It looks like Cam is ready to paid without having to exchange a briefcase of cash behind a shed. I was starting to think he might just be decent and then I saw him play in the national championship and aside from being indestructible I was very unimpressed with him. Someone will go high on him just like they did with Tebow.

So you agree with me?

Yes. I'd like to see him on The Bear also.

He's big, tall, can't take on blockers, can backpedal very quickly, and can run really fast. That guy on the Bears is getting old.
