Mark Walton Declares For The Draft

Advertisement
Not the slightest bit surprising. Still he could have improved his drafts stock even if he was to split carries next season. His track record against p5 competition is pretty bad right now. Physically, he's got what it takes to play in the league but he hasn't proven much against good competition.

I know he did , and that doesn't change my statement. Undersized and average db speed is not ingredients to leave early. He'd be a very late pick , 5-6 round if lucky.

Dude has good instincts and solid tackler but he's nowhere near ready for next level.

Should have come back. I don't usually advocate for doing so but... Given his size & injury he will be lucky to go 3rd Round. Probably 4th-6th unless he blows it up at the combine. Could have broke records, won a ship, been in Heisman talk and got into the 1st or 2nd round next year.

18 Depth
Lingard
Homer
Dallas *Probably more WR next year
Davis
Burns **If he's let out of protective bubble
Gray
Atkins

Duke went in the 3rd; Lamar in the 4th. 3rd round seems about right for Mark. He'll be a good pro and brings value if drafted in the 3rd. No surprise on this one. Hope he recovers well.
 
He’ll make a roster on his incredible special teams play. Then he’ll eventually get a chance to carry the ball when guys get hurt.
 
the balance he runs with is a reason he`ll have a long prosperous career.

good luck to the young man
 
Everyone knew he was gone as he wouldn't have had much playing time as Homer and Lingard are better players and Davis is just as good.

His special teams alone will have dude making a good living , which will open the door for him to eventually being a contributor at rb , if not starter / rotational guy. No doubt in my mind , no problem with him leaving early.

Hopefully he doesn't get drafted it it's too late , where he can pick the best spot.

Brock... RJ & Norton. Not rocket science.

Norton would be making a mistake to leave early. He's been a solid player, nothing special. There are solid upperclassman big guys on every decent team. Is he any better than the Jones kid at ND that ate up UM last year? He didn't get drafted.
