Man, I don't even care. Make whatever money you can.

Maybe they just need money?

Staying in school & securing a degree where you are pretty much guaranteed to find a job vs declaring for a draft you wont get picked in & fighting tooth & to make a roster spot without a certain future on the field. Hmmm. Specifically Bandy

How is Garvin coming back going to help his draft stock?? He’s been the same player his entire career... he shines when hes the 2nd or 3rd guy o the dline behind a Joe Jackson and Gerald Willis and takes plays off and doesn’t give full effort when he has to be the #1.

The only way Trajan Bandy coming back would’ve helped him is if this staph had any sense to start him at FS and move him to Nickel in spread formations. Another year of him playing CB wasn’t going to improve his draft stock at all.

Exactly same **** they won't develop as players so what's the point in coming back
 
My argument is what’s the point of leaving early, even if you’re in financial trouble, if you’re not getting drafted?!?

Welcome to this new entitled, me-first generation of athlete.

There is talk that Bandy needs to go pro as his family needs money—which is the case with a lot of guys—so speaking less to his situation directly and more to Garvin, J. Jackson, Norton, Yearby, Streeter, et al.

You have kids sitting down with coaches and advisors who are giving them valuable information on where they're predicted to go, how the entire game works, where there's a drop-off in money, what second contracts look like and what not—and you have players being told to their face that they're late third day guys and potential seventh rounders, to which they all reply—"I respect what you're saying, but I STILL FEEL THAT I'M READY TO MAKE THIS JUMP TO THE NEXT LEVEL AS IT'S BEEN MY LIFELONG DREAM".

They flat-out ignore sound advice, while people in their lives pump their heads with nonsense how they'll be the one the defy the odds at the combine and they'll find a way to get drafted sooner—despite the fact this is a business and a pretty basic process. You can't will yourself to being a higher draft pick—but you can work out hard this off-season, return for your senior year, shut down your social media and get super-serious and laser focused on having a next-level season that hopefully improves your stock.

So many of these kids are way in over their heads and where past greats have listened to the advice of coaches and advisors—this generation has a different belief in self; sometimes to their detriment—where they'll flat out ignore facts and go with their guy or emotions.

Garvin: 6th or 7th round, may hang around the league a couple of years.

Bandy: P Squad.

Thomas: not gonna be on a roster.
