did Deejay say hes going pro?

[No_Fly_Zone]

I think he has better vision.

DJ also has better balance through contact. Makes him harder to bring down.

 

[loeTed92]

If he runs 4.5 I don’t see why he’s not drafted on day 2. He reminds me of Alvin Kamara.

Without Shaq, pick, and deejay we’ll need some new vocal leaders next year

 

[Angry Ibis]

So 3 pages in.....no actual tweets?

Good thing is this exact thread will exist 20 more times before he needs to decide.

 

[dirtyred786]

He cant improve his draft stock any further with Enos refusing to establish a running game. Cant say I blame him if he does.

We either want Enos to put up points or worry about individual draft stock, but we can’t beg for both.

It's not just running. DJ has a high football IQ and does a lot of little things in situations like pass protection.

He will probably go in the mid to late rounds. Staying here another year won't change that.

Imo he will and should go.

Exactly.

Not much more a running back of his caliber can do to "raise their stock"—and a lot more they can do to damage their body, shortening their career span.

Pretty selfish of fans to hope/expect a guy to not act in his own best interest for his career. Dallas absolutely should go pro without question. Njoku was the last Cane who I felt was in that boat.

Running the ball in the redzone would actually help with both.

That’s not what you said.

 

[Tad Footeball]

Never going to hold it against any RB than will get drafted and has a real solid chance of making a roster in the NFL- both of which appear to be true for DeeJay. That alone usually far outweighs the risk of staying in school. It's obviously the Joe Yearby situations that need to be warned against and avoided.

And he aint doing either

 

[Original Sebastian]

saw a few things on twitter.. is this legit?

To consider he's not is like ****ing into the wind.

 

[Salt]

Cam is going to have a lot to say about that. A great one two punch nonetheless

Should have said have the opportunity to be "the guy". Injury set him back but should be full go next year and ready to compete.

 

[can4life]

He's a father now, no problem with him securing a bag.

Getting that degree is securing the bag but i get your point tho.

 

[Rellyrell]

DJ brings a lot of value to a NFL team. Think T Cohen, D Sproles, G Bernard, A Ekeler, D Johnson, etc.

Not saying that Dallas will have such a career, but I wouldn’t be surprised. Smart, versatile backs are becoming very stylish in the NFL. Honestly, as a Bears fan, would love to replace Cohen w Dallas.

Always can come back and get your degree even if you leave early like kaaya is doing

 

[Hurricane23]

IMO he’s going to the league

 

[TheRichtShow]

He likely goes undrafted. He won't run a good 40 and RBs like him are a dime a dozen.

His stock won't improve by returning to school obviously but let's not pretend he has a guaranteed NFL contract waiting for him.
