Players returning

[Notsince1985]

Nesta got carried off on senior night. I think he's gone.

They were able to lift him?

Looks like Chase Smith and Jabari Ishmael. The true evidence of Feeley's work.

Nesta will be UDFA. Not sure if coming back changes that tbh

That's impressive

Give me Rambo

 

[Canes Stan]

Stevenson needs to come back for another year if he doesn't want to be a late round pick

A healthy season would really boost his stock.

Silvera, Frierson, Bolden should all come back now that Mario is here.

They would arguably be the best DL, LB, DB on the team, respectively.

I feel like he won’t even get that he’s probably Canadian league bound

The only ones actually getting drafted are Rambo and Stevenson. I’d say Hedley has a good chance of finding a team but punters aren’t often drafted. Nobody is drafting any of the other guys on that list besides maybe a 7th round flier on Bolden or Silvera.

One punter was drafted last year (from GT) and he is having a terrible season. Its such a head game with kickers/punters.. you may need a good kicker on your roster but the transition from college to pro seems to fvk with kickers/punters.

I think Jarrid Williams is applying for an 8th year under hardship clause because 7 years isn't enough

Being coached by CMD qualifies under hardship rules..

Bolden would be the best DB on the team? Really? Frierson is a LB?

Frierson was technically an OLB in Diaz's scheme. Are we gonna split hairs here? Am I wrong?
Bolden led the team in tackles in 2020 and finished 6th in tackles this season despite playing in just 7 games.
We get on him for taking atrocious angles and blowing tackles but the media types would hype him up again.

What does media hype have to do with how good a player he is? Did Williams or Kichens similarly take atrocious angles and blow as many tackles?

Bubba regressed like just about everyone else but he was pretty dang good in 2020. His one full season he led the team in tackles and forced fumbles. 2nd team All-ACC.I like James, Avantae and Kam just fine and I do question Bolden's character a bit, but I'd be excited to have him back.

 

[407cane]

I mean I find it hard to believe Nesta, Bolden, Blades, or tyrique are coming back but I'm not as plugged in as most.

We have 3 safeties better than him; he won't see the field w/out senior privilege

Odd that punters struggle. I may be wrong, but there doesn’t seem to be an emphasis on blocking punts in the NFL. Only 8 through 13 weeks the season, from an online stat source. Not sure how many total punts, but well over 1,500?

Kickers I can see as a far more mental struggle.

I would like to see the NCAA copy the NFL’s 35-yard PAT kick.

 

[3FW]

Bubba should not have even been playing. I will give his poor play a pass.

 

[Canefancarlos2]

Why do our fans think Zion is getting drafted if he leaves this year?

He absolutely needs to return.

I think he will be drafted just nowhere near what people talked about early in the year.to me 4th round earliest but for go much later

 

[Canefancarlos2]

We absolutely need Stevenson and Nesta. Its a win win for both sides. 1 was by far our best CB, and the other one was starting to come on strong and is one of our top 2 DT. They can both increase their draft rankings assuming its a competent head coach. If Stevenson gets a 2-3 round grade I can see him leaving.

Rambo - great pick up but he'd be dumb to come back after the season that he had. He isn't going to get much faster or bigger and hard to imagine he'd have a better season statistically. This is his best shot.

Harris and Bolden - best to move on. They'd sit if they came back.

Scaife and Blades should come back. Due to lack of depth they may actually play and maybe make a difference. Right now, neither one will get drafted. Same for Frierson.

Hedley - luv the dude, but he's like 28. Time to move on and give see if he can play in the league.

The other guys, time to move on.

Scaife has no reason to leave most wanted this guy benched till later in the year and frierson played better last year then this year I'm not even sure if he will start next year
