It's all bidness
I'm shocked because I read where him and Murphy both graded out as second rounders.
I get sitting out if you are a top pick, you know like Herbert will be.
However, second round? With his skill set that would almost beg coming back for one more year to increase his stock.
Maybe his agent knows something the talking heads don't.
Any way.
fuck that guy, he's dead to me.
Unless he comes back, then I will believe it wasn't a bidness decision.

He looks like a first rounder to me

Having that out so fast after the game tells you all you need to know about the “injury” ... business decision

Business makes my heart hurt

Yeah, I want to believe this is all message bored tomfoolery but damn, not a good look. Especially after missing the game.Tequilla said:Having that out so fast after the game tells you all you need to know about the “injury” ... business decision

Posting on a plane is tough ... for his sake hope he has some good answers when NFL teams question him

Depends on whether he's Chinese, Japanese, Phillipino, Thai or Korean. Some lie culturally, some are smarter than shit in their lies and some just won't answer the question and try to sell some dim-sum, Pho or pad thai instead.Tequilla said:Posting on a plane is tough ... for his sake hope he has some good answers when NFL teams question him

I hope he tears an ACL at the combine. On tv.
He QUIT on the very team that vaulted him into the NFL at the precise time they needed him the most. Without the Squad he abandoned, he’d be pumping gas.

Think I'm wrong ... the NFL took Jack Lockner top 8 ...
The scouts are robots who look at physical ability.
It sucks ... but he doesn't give two fucks.
Again, it's a business decision. It sucks, but that is what CFB has become.

The NFL will still look at the talent for sure
But don’t think that he isn’t going to get asked about that in interviews with teams
NFL teams don’t take kindly to any suggestion that players dog it, etc when they are out of contention ... and for better or worse, ANYBODY that skips a bowl game is going to have the question of “are they” or “aren’t they” on them
Another question I suspect will come out is when the decision was made ... was it made late and impacted game planning, etc -

Bosa skipped half a season and he's going to be the number one pick.
This will not hurt Rapp at all. -
love how Rapp said it was such a fucking honor to suit up next to his dawg brothers and represent for the UW
until it wasn't.
fuck that guy. i am taking his poster off my mom's basement wall.

2) Bosa is a terrible example because he had a legitimate injury that BEST CASE would allow him to play in a bowl game ... that’s BEST CASE
3) Teams absolutely give a crap about performance, behavior, etc at the end of NFL seasons ... particularly when the team isn’t good. Leonard Fournette is getting destroyed right now ... and in many respects rightfully so. Also worth pointing out that Fournette was one of the first to skip out ... was that a red flag of future issues or something just unique to him himself?
4) Missing a game doesn’t mean that you can and cannot get hurt in your draft prep ... ask Sidney about that
5) There’s something to be said for finishing what you started ... I’m fine with it if you have an injury that is at risk for re-injury in a game situation and the rehab that follows puts one behind. But barring that, leaving your team comes off as selfish and putting your interests above the team. Those aren’t ideal qualities in my mind. -

The NFL doesn't give two shits if you skip a bowl game to make sure you don't get broke beyond repair.
I suspect many teams are actually encouraging it.
This is a league that covers up and gives second chances on:
Domestic violence
Dog Fighting
Drug abuse
murder
Brain Damage
And you think they're going to turn on a dime because some kid protects his body.
Fuck all that ... this will only become more common ... and it will eventually seep into the playoffs and natty game.

I think he planned on playing but got worried. This was the first "real" injury he had here. The first thing that caused him to miss practice and such. I could see it rattling him a bit. People bad mouthing the kid need to fucking grow up

It was a business decision, I get that.
But you still need to fuck off. -

Pete needs to put an equipment manager on him to ensure he doesn’t steal any UW property that doesn’t belong to him like #7 UW jerseys and shoes. Give him 5 min to clear out his shit. -
You don't skip the Rose Bowl asshole
-
If he was 100% healthy he would have played. No doubt he was hurt, but so are most players at this point of the season. I don't wish him any ill will and hope he succeeds in the future, but as one of the defensive leaders, he let the team down.
-
I’m not criticizing him for the decision ... it’s pretty transparent what happened at this point
My point is that I hate the move as a player for a number of reasons.
And I do think that there will be a point in time where the NFL changes their stance -
If you still think he was actually injured after posting this 12 hours (or whatever) after the game ended you are a dumbass and should seek a medical opinion on your stupidity. Obvious bidness decision is obvious.UWhuskytskeet said:
Whatever. I love the kid. He played his ass off for us and killed it. But, this was weak sauce. -
Like the honey badger, the nfl don't give a fuck.

The cautionary tale for taking one for the team and playing in a bowl is Dallas Cowboys linebacker Jaylon Smith. At the end of the 2015 season, he suffered a catastrophic left knee injury, resulting in nerve damage and a torn ACL, in the Fiesta Bowl. A presumptive top-five pick before the bowl game, he dropped to the second round (No. 34 overall) of the 2016 draft. Being there one last time for his Notre Dame teammates cost him almost $19 million in guaranteed money on his rookie contract.
It was the next season that running backs Christian McCaffrey and Leonard Fournette, both eventual top-10 picks, decided to sit out their teams’ bowl games, sparking the current trend.
There has been the false cry that players who skip bowl games will be viewed negatively by NFL decision-makers or that path portends a lack of NFL success. This is a transparent attempt to shame players into not skipping bowls. UCF defensive coordinator Randy Shannon tried to peddle this flawed and self-serving logic recently. (It’s not uncommon for college coaches and their staffs to have bonuses in their contracts for winning bowl games.)
This season, McCaffrey set the NFL record for receptions by a running back (107) on a team that missed the playoffs. He has yet to miss a game in his career. He finished third in the NFL in yards from scrimmage, behind Saquon Barkley and Ezekiel Elliott, both of whom elected to end their college careers in bowl games. There’s no correlation. -

What I will give him credit for ... he did come to UW.

That means something.
