He could also be a pretty dangerous slot receiver and KR/PR, like early days Wes Welker but more dangerous.
Sure he could stay, but if his parents (who you would think would advocate for the value of a Stanford education) think he could be ready for the NFL already, we've already lost the first battle. Perhaps Ed is aware of the limited playing career, and the possibility of finishing the degree at a later time strikes him as a doable proposition.
Even if CMAC weren't a round 1 draft pick, another year is unlikely to change that. He already had the best season of any college player. And he's getting a LOT of usage. For RBs more than anybody, that matters. If he projects as a mid round pick next year, I think he should go if the NFL is his biggest goal.
