I think jaylon Smith. A lb the cowgirls drafted a while back

Jerry drafted him in the second round when he couldn't feel or move his foot.  Took him 2 years to recover.  

 

Some of yall jumping on here to bash or down talk a kid or doubting his chances of making it in the league is wild. Let him have his moment and declare after he gave us 3-4 years without all this negativity.

look at what happened to the ND linebacker.  Blew out his knee in a bowl game when he was going ot be a top 10-15 pick.  He still got drafted, but was never the same.  I doubt one more game of tape after you've been playing for 3+ years is going to make that big of a difference.

Perhaps people have overreacted to a case that happened ten years ago. 

Jaylon has no draft stock to preserve. He needs to go play and have a good game against a good team.

Or, that is a true statement if you are a sure fire first rounder.......think Banks..................

If you are a 5-6-7 rounder or camp player, maybe a 'kick-ass' bowl game would improve your stock.

 

Even for later rounds it makes no sense to risk getting injured and going undrafted.

1 meaningless game isn’t going to change 3 years worth of film. Once again pointless. His best bet is to be as healthy and prepared for combine. That will help him more than this bowl game will with regards to draft position.

No, but these declarations are guys basically announcing that they’re opting out of the bowl game to focus on the draft.

Can you clarify what getting ready for the draft entails?  Would football practice not be beneficial or is this more about not getting injured. 

Best of luck in the draft, Jaylon. 

Interesting that this mock draft has Vasek ranked above Burke. I thought Burke had great year.

Opting out of a bowl game to focus on the draft seems so paradoxical to me.

Lots of snaps in front of NFL personnel in all stars practice is vital in elevation. Wouldn’t get get snaps in bowl practice and actual game.

Burke will get drafted I bet. He had too much production and ultimately plenty of experience, someone will take him.

I feel like Burke wasn’t used properly but being a team player he did his job within our scheme. He has really good bend and length that will transfer well.

How Texas deployed him fit his skillset pretty well.

I think he has more pass rush ability than we schemed for him. Guess we will see at the next level.

If Burke goes UDFA thst will destroy our recrutiing.  This list made by an aggy?  Vasek ahead of Burke too?  Must be a joke.

Cost us the sec championship…just had to block one guy
