@TonyPauline
Sources have confided RB's Giovani Bernard/UNC & Eddie Lacy/Alabama will enter the draft.

Wonder if the news of all these great RBs with eligibility remaining declaring affects Cierre. My guess is he is gone either way, but both of these guys certainly are going ahead of him.

I love Bernard.

Off Topic but...it terrifies me as a Giants fan that Manti has a good chance to go to the Eagles. I've never had to deal with one of my favorite players from ND going to a team I hate in the NFL (was never much of a Trevor Laws guy).

@RichCirminiello:
Spoke to Knile Davis last night. Davis will forego final year at Arkansas to turn pro.

Another early RB entry. His is a bit surprising to me considering how bad of a year he had and the coach / running game he has coming in, but I guess he doesn't want to start over.

I agree! It may help but RB's have such a short shelf life that he needs to make money while he still is healthy, in my opinion.

Not a Derek Landri or Victor Abiamiri fan either? I hate that they are Eagles. As for Wood, I think he goes.. Especially if we win. He's got a child and family to take care of and it's not too far fetched to think another similar year at ND wouldn't necessarily help his stock.

I'm not going to lie, I loved Golden Tate at ND but I'm not a big fan of him in Seattle

Before my time. I wasn't an ND fan until I went to school there in 06. Caught the last year of a couple of their ND careers. Never developed an emotional attachment

No he won't. MLB don't go that high. Top 10 possibly, top 5 no.

Typically they don't, but I think as a GM I would seize the opportunity to get a guy that could possibly anchor my defense for the next 10-15 years. Drafting is a gamble in the end. It's about predicting what you will get in the long term. There are a lot of good players in this draft, but no one as special as Te'o character wise.

I think one of these GMs will think it is worth it to take him this early. After all, Cleveland did take a running back No3 last year.

In the NFL right now, what MLB do you think brings to the table what Te'o does? If any.
