Costello came close to setting a record this year.  Yes a great season, so great he is considering declaring for the draft.  

Sorry to hear that he is considering leaving. Yes, he  had a pretty good year. He did improve his completion percentage significantly. However, he didn't show the ability to make all the throws that an NFL QB is expected to make. Part of that was that we didn't attempt those plays. To my eyes, he is not yet a "proven", "can't miss" prospect. The only way it makes sense for him to go to the NFL this year is that he expects next year to be more of the same or worse for him personally. If that is the case, Ouch! We do lose some good receivers, but supposedly we have good ones coming back that should offer the ability to fill out his resume (different skill sets).
