Rousseau Opts out - F****

[AHURT12]

It sucks but he's protecting himself

 

[raincane]

Probably slips out of first round, but he’ll still get drafted. I can see why he would prefer that over risking disease or injury. I mean I’ve heard Covid can **** up lungs, which basically means pro athletics go out the window.

 

[Memnon]

Fúckity McFúck stick...

 

[hoops156]

refer back to what i said. hes a top 15 picks right on every board.

 

[D_G87]

Lol this board is full of idiots...

 

[Stylie]

I doubt any of those Clemson guys opt out or even Fields.

 

[BostonCanes47]

Tough to justify the move. He really only has 1 year of experience playing DE, but next man up.

 

[RickRollU]

What could’ve been with him at UM...

 

[dudenate]

I mean, we're deep there, but he's a part of that depth. Sux for us.

 

[razrcane]

Knew it was coming once other players started opting out and using Covid as an excuse. He's slated to be a top 10 draft pick based on some mock drafts. Sucks, but we're going to have to adjust as a result.

After only playing one year and not even starting until MID SEASON. Hope he gets that coin.

LOL no. his size, athleticism and potential will keep him in the first half of the first round. not worth getting hurt bc you possibly lose half your roster to covid positive tests and are playing with back ups that arent up to par

 

[Cajuncane]

Well if he’s gonna sit out I hope he takes Trevor Lawrence with him..

 

[JD08]

So what happens when the next man up turns out to be really **** good? We all heard Irvin talk about playing injured because he didn't want to lose his starting job because they guy behind him was just as good. Can anyone picture him opting out?

What happens to all these players opting out when their replacement makes them look like less of a take?

 

[jackbenimble71]

just cost him millions.. bad decision

 

[akad1984]

Could have cemented his place as a top-15 pick with another monster year.

 

[ben]

He gave us one of the best seasons out of a Cane in recent memory. Wish he could have suited up for the team this season but he’s a first round lock, no need for him to risk it.

 

[nycane]

He’s looking to go straight to draft. I don’t like it. An athlete can handle COVID. Come on lol

 

[Mrfree]

Don’t start this **** man, put yourself in these guys shoes for once

80 other players in the team still going out there.

 

[1992cane]

He’s a first rounder so I get it. Just because he may not be a top 5 pick, doesn’t mean he isn’t a guaranteed first rounder. First round is first round.

 

[SouthernM]

Hope to see him go in the top 10.

Sadly, he won't now. This only hurts him. Hope he re-evaluates and sees that this is the wrong decision. Covid isn't going away anytime soon and a structure keeping these guys focused and tested weekly is really the safest bet.
