Elijah appears to be playing this season

If Tryon and Levi were smart, they'd come back for this. An easy one month season could be worth several rounds in the draft. But knowing the NCAA, I'm guessing there's no flexibility for Tryon, who already hired an agent. Not sure if Levi has signed with anyone either.

Couldn't agree more. These guys can test well, look great in workouts, and (especially Levi) look good on film. There's no substitute for playing some dominant football in college though. Neither of them really have yet. A great season would be worth a round or two of draft status for both, especially Tryon.GreenRiverGatorz said:If Tryon and Levi were smart, they'd come back for this.

Who cares what the NCAA says. Is anyone still listening to them at this point?GreenRiverGatorz said:If Tryon and Levi were smart, they'd come back for this.

And I know it might be hard to believe but I did NOT photoshop this:

Good chance Levi and Tryon never sign a meaningful NFL contract and are in the CFL or whatever in a couple years. Both needed another year to prove they could be dominant (especially Tryon). Dumb reactive decision.
-
LSU and Bama had players come back. No idea on the agent angle.

If they can come back, they should. If not, then it is what it is. Tryon may not even be good enough to get a contract after playing his junior year let alone his sophomore year.FireCohen said:

Many thought Ahmed and Bryant were going to get drafted for sure. The nfl don’t GAF and the lower you’re drafted or picked up as a Udfa the quicker they dispose of you and move on to the next guy. If you can perform and move into the top 2-3 rounds you get more money, but also get a longer leash with the front office.

Levi graduated, probably doesn't want to do school this quarter to stay eligible. Tyron, I still believe has some school left.

The NCAA needs to do the right thing and let these kids come back.UWDawg11 said:

I say that as a Duck fan. -
Im pretty sure Tryon was only a RS soph last year. He has 2 years of eligibility left, and likely did not graduate. He only played meaningful snaps for 1 year and was hit and miss in terms of effectiveness.huskyhooligan said:Levi graduated, probably doesn't want to do school this quarter to stay eligible.

In all likelihood, he made a dumb decision. Wonder if his name being attached to that ridiculous United thing caused him to leave -
Tryon whiffed on two backfield tackles against Cal.
Glad we could develop him while blowing crucial games. -
He's talking about these players not making the best choice for themselves by acting before they needed to.FireCohen said:

Tryon's going in the top 3 rounds, Levi top 4 at worst.

are you fucking kidding me? the adults that run pac-12 decided to fuck every decent nfl prospect in the conference in the ass by being little bitches. So you expect these kids to keep turning a check???? and wait for the conference to get its shit together? they did what they thought was the best option at that time for them given the circumstances - i don't blame them one bit.chuck said:

I read about a few players who had signed with agents but are hoping to undo that and play now that the season is back in play (I believe they were Big 10 players). I would bet that if Levi and Tryon wanted to come back, they would be able to, even after signing.

I'll take that action. Tryon has great measurables, but he was never even close to being consistently dominant. Factor in a lost year? I think he'll be lucky to sneak into the top four rounds.dnc said:

Levi OTOH I agree with. He's consistently produced. He's a prototypical 3T who could've played himself into the first round. I still think he goes in rounds 2-3 with the lost year. -
In a shortened season I'm actually really excited to see Tuitele, Bandes, Latu and Smalls get some nice run so they're ready to ball out in 2021.GreenRiverGatorz said:If Tryon and Levi were smart, they'd come back for this.

Bryant should have been drafted. He is so good he is currently the patriots backup QB. Has he even played QB before?AtomicDawg said:

What they thought was best at the time was not the best. That's the point. All of your raging against the conference fucking the pooch is touching, but it's irrelevant. If the players had waited just a few more weeks, which they could have done at no cost to themselves, they'd be able to make a more informed decision right now. This is a decision that, in at least Tryon's case, could and probably will cost him a lot of money and job security.FireCohen said:

Hard to blame the kids for not having patience and foresight when the big shots making six and seven figures displayed neither. -
No it isn't. Justifying the wrong decision because someone else made one first is stupid. It's firecohen logic.dnc said:

Kids - "well if we're not going to play I might as well go pro"
They based their decision on what they were told by people in charge. I don't blame them one bit. -
You're probably right about Levi. I know it's only highlights, but I watched some if his this week and he's really fucking impressive. If his general game film, effort, technique, assignment soundness etc, matches up with his highlights he may not have anything left to prove on the field.GreenRiverGatorz said:

Levi OTOH I agree with. He's consistently produced. He's a prototypical 3T who could've played himself into the first round. I still think he goes in rounds 2-3 with the lost year.
Tryon is a different case altogether. He has about a minute of highlight clips, and that's with replays of included. His game film is going to show more mistakes than great or even solid plays. He better really blow them away in his underwear sessions because that's nearly all he has to go on.
