3-4 round pick best case scenario
Donald and Martin were on championship teams because I am looking for the most recent Pitt and ND championships and none are showing this decade. Bama, LSU, Ohio State, and FSU usually have the juniors in the draft.
Which is in the 900,000-1,000,000 signing bonus or so
You must remember a major part of the Defense' success is the D'line. If the D'Line is changing that could also hurt MJ's stock.
You guys are reaching. Very little film prior to this year and you expect him to go earlier than the 4th round? No way

And they have plenty that stay too man, and a lot of those guys that leave early don’t last more than a year after barely being drafted.
LSU had Tre’ White who STARTED at LSU for 2 years, his soph and junior year and was all SEC, he came back for his senior year and was drafted 1st round.
Bottom line, once again..the kid needs to come back. But I don’t know his reasons, and if he needs $ that bad then by all means I cannot knock that ..
Hopefully he will wait to get input from the draft advisory board before signing with an agent.
Hes played one year. Very foolish. He could use another year.
This is why NFL GM's loves the []_[]...get our players for a bargain. Steal good players in the 5-7 round.

MJ wouldn’t even be drafted. Late round as best. TF these kids thinking
Kid is making the wrong decision. He had a good season, build off it with another good year of tape and shoot up the draft board.

Oh man I really hope he doesn't declare. One more year under rumph will make him better and then possibly turn him into a late round pick.

Nope on both
If he's a 3rd or higher he should go. These young dogs will be taking playing time AND shine. Gives us another schollie to sign and makes us look more attractive. He also probably looking at injuries, you roll the dice everytime you strap on the helmet.
A quick review of the kids that came out early over the last decade or so should dissuade most any current player from making the same enormously costly mistake again. Of course, if a kid is certain he's going to be a 1st rounder or an early 2nd rounder, then that's a different story. Although, I believe some of the previous kids saw an agent blow sunshine up their skirts and mislead them into thinking they would go much higher than they actually did.

Guy probably has no chance to improve his stock by rounds if he stays. If he’s a lock to go 4-5th round, I can see why he would consider jumping. He’ll make a roster, earn some nice coin, a be a year closer to the second contract — at least that’s how the argument would go.
Let's be loyal to our players for once. Let him make his own grown man decision and support it either way.
This really does happen frequently here. Our best underclassmen almost never return for their Senior years, really disappointing.
CB Lattimore played one season and was the a top 15 pick. There were 24 underclassman drafted in the first round. The UNC QB started one season and was a top 2 pick.
