Eason looked a little lost out there against USC. He could benefit from another year. I think right now he is borderline round 1 and could go a lot higher next year.
Borderline round 1?
Are you & @FirePete in a competition to usurp @Ballz as dumbest poaster yet no one else knows about this competition?
Yeah. Borderline round 1.
Strongly disagree. The NFL is full of dumb motherfuckers. For example, look at the Bears drafting Trubisky. They traded up when they didn't need to and they passed on Watson and Mahomes.
The Bills took Josh Allen 7th overall. I can keep going.
Eason has played well enough to be a 1st rounder without NFL stupidity helping him along. NFL stupidity puts him in the top half of the 1st round.
I think as of now he might be a round 1 but it is not a sure thing. There are QBs above him on draft boards. He could play his way into top 10 with a monster showing next year.
The talent is there but the Cal and USC games put a damper on things.
He'd have to jump at least ten spots in order to make the missed year worth it (without accounting for inflation, opportunity cost, risk of injury etc).
32nd pick got $2.525M/year for a total of $10.1M contract. If he moves up to the 20th pick, he'd make up the difference in missing that first year.
If he's already a Top-10 pick it's not remotely worth staying another year. Way too much risk for little added reward.

And this doesn't even account for getting to free agency quicker.
Also, generally speaking the lower you go in the first round the better team you are going to*, and who you play for can have as big of an impact on how you progress as how good you are.
*obviously trades can alter that, that's why I said generally
If Eason was average he would be borderline 1st round. He’s better than that. Top half of round one, probably even top 5. He’ll be the first or second QB taken along with Tua. Herbert would probably be the third
If Eason didn't play at all this season he would still shine so well at the underwear Olympics that someone would grab him by early round two.
If he goes hes top 10-15 now. He could blow up next season and vault to #1 consideration, but the odds of dropping 10 spots with mediocre to poor numbers are better than moving up 10 spots due to Heisman level numbers.
FWIW, our messiah @sonics1993 still thinks Eason is coming back next year. There's no doubt that he'd get drafted in the first round if he were to leave this year. What should be more important for someone in his position is determining if an extra year of seasoning in college will set him up for better success in the pros. He's played less than 1.5 years of college football so I tend to think the answer is yes. The NFL and the money will be there, but I think staying an extra year will help his odds of getting that big second contract payday.
I heard he's gonna go pro this year and get drafted in the top half of the first round. But he might not go that high. But he might come back next year. But he might not.

He's basing that on what Eason's saying right now. Of course during the season Eason's telling people he thinks he's coming back, he'd have to be a major dumbfuck to say he's going to go.
After the season he'll sit down with his family, look at the numbers, and do the obvious thing.
In this case having inside sources makes you less likely to get this right.

Whats the difference between going 14-18 this year and going top 5 next year?

All it take one dumb fucking GM (there are 32 of them) to fall in love with the Eason and it over.
Keep Bill Belichick’s name out of your mouth motherfucker.

If he wants to stay he stays. Let's do this every week

I think he goes.
Unless he likes it here a lot.
But if he goes ahead and gets the natty this year then no tears will be shed
It's just what I'm hearing. Don't twist
After the season he'll sit down with his family, look at the numbers, and do the obvious thing.

Okay.
He will be the 2nd QB taken, no fucks given.
The end
I dont follow NFL contracts at all.
