Why would Nuk want to stay, if he is a 1st rounder.

I say go. 1st round money is big. Rather have fat pockets than get hurt playing College football. He has had a great season this year. He should be rewarded with a big pay day.

He is not a first round draft choice.

All he needs a good combine. Why do you think he isn't a 1st rounder

He'll be a 3rd rd pick.

But I think if he comes back he'll go around same spot. Just doesnt have speed nfl wants or strength to get off jams.

I think late first/early second will be the latest he goes. He fits in the Anquan Boldin mold.

Boldin was a mid 2nd round guy

Which I would say is best case for Nuk after this season. Honestly if he is projected to go in the 3rd or higher he should go because he isn't going to improve that much.

2nd rd is best case but I think 3rd

Boldin had about 20 lbs on Hopkins.
Looking at WR in this draft class I think he could be ranked from #5-10.
He won't get picked over: Keenan Allen, Justin Hunter, Robert Woods, Terrence Williams.
And I think some others go before him like Tavon Austin, Cordarelle Patterson, Kenny Stills. Da Rick Rogers is more talented but off the field problems may drop him. And you always have someone like the Panthers that take a QB turned WR project like Denard Robinson way too early.

Yep probably a second rounder at best....

this year. His 40 time isnt going to be the greates (4.55-4.7) imo and he isnt a really tall receiver. I honestly think he will do very well in the pros but scouts may think otherwise after seeing his measurables.

2nd-3rd round, which he should go for.

Would love to see him back but would hate for him to have a D Mac type senior year, which injury or game planning could bring about.
His work ethic is unreal, and he seems to have the right mindset for a long career. His skill set, hands, and nose for the ball remind me a lot what Jerry Rice looked like in San Francisco. Interestingly enough, their 40 times are fairly similar as well.
I hope he finishes this year strong and gets a decent projection in the draft. Odds are this is his last year as a Tiger.

Because there is something special in those hills The cards are falling into place to make next year a very special year for the tigers, and he might want to be part of it. We can be a legitimite national title contender, and no matter how much money you make in the NFL, how many who have experienced winning a national championship would not wish to do it again?
All that said, I would not begrudge him for deciding to go pro at the end of the year. He has earned the right.

Why would Connor Shaw stay if he's a first rounder?

CS, eventhough I think he is a very good CFB QB, i don't think he will even get drafted.

I don't doubt that. I think any CFB player that can be drafted and make $$$, they should leave and pursue that. You can always come back and get a degree.

Depends on whether or not you can improve your draft status with another year, or if you have personal goals in college, etc., etc. It isn't as simple as saying if he gets some "$$$" he should go, although I'm sure that's what you're hoping for.
Like I said, even if if we were to lose DeAndre, it's not going to drastically hurt us and it isn't going to help your team in any way.
