easy decision when you are out of eligibility.

Is Debo the only one with eligibility left of this bunch? I can’t figure anything out with the Covid year. I’m still really curious about how his draft stock will look.

Yes, Debo had another year.

Debo actually had two more years, with the Covid exemption. His first season was 2020, which would not have counted against his eligibility.

It's interesting that Trehern and Telfort have announced their intentions to enter the draft, though from all indications their eligibility is up anyway. Or at least I thought it was. It is very confusing with the way they have listed their "class" on the roster, whether the covid year is included, especially those who came to us from juco or transferred from other schools.

I think Trehern was out but pretty sure Telfort could take another year if he wanted. But these guys are ready to make money and have more that gotten what they wanted from college, including degrees.

I think most of these guys do this for the Gram and just want to have a thank you post. But thinking about if, there actually is a reason to declare for the draft now that there are two spring leagues. You are basically saying you are taking a shot at the league and won’t be signing with a spring team this spring until you know your status with the NFL.
