He's playing like the best DT in the country now. If you know one who's playing better point him out.
Ya he's probably a 1st rounder right now. Monster season.
Why you in they pockets?

woah woah woah, not hating on the kid just saying if he's not a first rounder why not stay unless he had to go to take care of his family like several players we've had in the past
i didn't know how draft stock though, i've seen a few mock drafts and haven't seen him on any of them so I believe my point was valid

i'm not hating on the kid at all, he's a beast.. just isn't getting love yet from mock drafts so I don't know why it is 100% he's leaving, we still have a shot he returns
according to 2 different mock drafts these are the first round DT's (he isn't one)
da'Ron Payne Alabama (mid teens)
Christian Wilkins Clemson (mid 20's)
Maurice Hurst Michigan (mid 20's)
Key word in bold.

well the mock drafts were updated today lmao, when is he then? he's an animal for sure, but i could see him staying if he believes another year can get him top 15

Why stay and risk injury when he can get good money by coming out? It would be stupid for him to stay another year.

I think he's the best player on our team period. No one else impacts the game like he does.

F*vk the mock drafts. NFL scouts know Kool and his ability to develop talent. Our players have the tape and stats to back up getting drafted early.
Crazy to think just a few years ago we would be lucky if we get someone drafted...at all. If RJ and Norton both leave then you could have 4 players drafted in the first 3 rounds.
I don't think RJ stays because he knows he will go in the first. Same goes for Chad and Trent not as talented but still produced consistently and can be solid players. Chad has the more desirable measurements but Trent has that motor that DL coaches love and someone will take a chance on him early. I could see Chad in the late 2nd and Trent in the 3rd. Personally, I think Norton stays with the hope of having a monster senior year and getting into the first round. If Norton does leave I can see him slipping into the 3rd.

RJ has been sort of unblockable one on one...basically gets held every play...The scary part is i dont even think he hit his real strength yet...Kid has growth potential in the strength department.
Hes likely a top 3 round kid right now before a combine, film watch, or interviews. Its only up from there....

Exactly hes the type that goes in the second or third and then becomes top 5 DT and everyone will be like why was he drafted so late. To me hes a first rounder

He's not going to be a 3rd rounder; he runs too well. He is a first rounder fellas watch. He can dunk a basketball. The NFL will not let a DT drop that far with his measurable and game tape. He's as good as gone after this year!

Best player on the team in every single game. He just smashed an All-World OG...
6 tackle, 2 solo tackles, .5 sack, 1 qb hurry
It's possible he comes back, but not likely. Ed Reed came back.....
