Since Jan 15th will soon be coming, please post any players that declare to enter the NFL draft early here.

I'd like to keep track of some of the big names leaving college early.

PSU JR LB Navarro Bowman will be leaving early from PSU. Tough loss.

Got it from this forum http://www.49erswebzone.com/forum/thread.php?num=135505&page=1

Tons of talent on that list and it isn't even close to being filled out.

thedynasty1998

Does anyone know the date that the NFL returns the evaluations to the underclassmen?

mucalum49

Add DE Thaddeus Gibson to the list

Good luck to Gibson. This has been a foregone conclusion for sometime now.

thedynasty1998

I think he'll be a very good pro. Not the level of an All Pro, but he's so versatile that I think he'll make some team really happy.

devil1197

Still waiting on Chekwa and Heyward, so that means everyone else is back.

updated list from here. http://www.gbnreport.com/juniors.htm I think an NC State RB just declared as well. Baluga from Iowa and a DE from USF are the latest big additions.

thedynasty1998

Just read some draft projection page, and it had Gibson as a 5-6 rounder. Not sure if it was a reliable source or not, but that was surprising.

OneBuckeye

I figured he could be anywhere from a 2-4th rounder.. 5th and 6th is a little surprising.

darbypitcher22

Arelius Benn? dude had a good first two years @ Illinois then just disappeared this past year...

thedynasty1998

Benn didn't have a reliable QB to get him the ball. The guy is a beast and will be good in the NFL. He is someone that will wow people at the combine.

Speedofsand

Florida is losing Haden, Hernandez, and maybe one of the Pouncey twins, Dunlap, Major Wright. Pouncey and Dunlap's parents want them to stay. Wright said if he decides to go he's going no matter where his projection is. They will all decide by this weekend.

Heyward and Chekwa are staying. OSU website confirms.

DaBrowns41

Jevan Snead is headed to the NFL.

DaBrowns41

Speedofsand

Snead has his degree already. I don't even think he will stick on a roster. I think he just didn't like Nutt.

Mulva

Snead probably knew if he came back for another year he might not get drafted at all.

He is not a good QB and just torched his draft stock this year.

darbypitcher22

a good crop of underclassmen players to choose from. Hernandez from Florida will be a BEAST for somebody

rip34

Just said on ESPN that Joe McKnight is leaving U$C.

darbypitcher22

Looks like he's getting out before the hammer gets dropped on that program... its coming....

jordo212000

Yeah I'd say McKnight thought thought he might have a suspension looming. McKnight could have used another year to improve his stock

OneBuckeye

There are a lot more to come from Bama, Texas and Florida this weekend, it is going to make for a lot of quality juniors in this class.
