Hey Farm,

Where did you get the idea that the guys leaving possess NFL-level?  I would be surprised if more than 3 of the 5 guys who declared early are drafted.  Only one is truly a solid NFL prospect (Rodgers).  Two others are borderline and the other two are practice squaders, at best.

I think he was implying that there were a lot of bad decisions happening right now.

There you go.  Though in a way I suspect leaving is a very good decision. It might be better to be on a practice squad for a pro team than play another year under Dykes.  I suspect all 5 believe that their odds of playing on Sundays will not improve by playing on another 1-11 or 2-10 type UCB team.  If they are lucky, then can make a pro squad and actually have fun playing football.  If they don't make the NFL (and are really close to graduating  ::)) then they can finish up their degree in 2015.
