Is it now a foregone conclusion that these two will declare for the draft?

Robinson is more of a toss up than Mason. Something weird would have to happen for mason to stay. Robinson is very up in the air since the only person who has him definite first round is kipper.

Robinson seems like a good candidate to stay. If he has a good year net year he's probably a top 10 pick maybe even top 5.

That's a good bit more than he'd probably get now.

Heard some of the CBS announcers were referring to Robinson as a 1st Rounder Maybe he'll stay but I doubt it.

As for Mason, he hasn't really given a hint either way. I think he'd be dumb not to jump to the NFL given the short lifespan of RBs, but who knows what's going on in his head

Robinson is freak athlete for his size. He could make a move up the draft board in the combine and work outs for teams. He will probably go since his handlers know this. Mason on the other hand probably won't measure up that great against some of the other backs coming out this year at the combine and what not so he needs to ride his momentum while its hot. He should go too IMO

robinson Would Be Smart To Stay. With Each Pick Having A fixed ContRact Now, He Would Certainly Move Up And Gain Millions In $.

Mason Should Go.Rb Isn't Getting Drafted High In Recent Years And There'sA LotOf Busting LatelY. Additionally, Ppl Talk About Mileage On Legs W Runningbacks Now And Every Carry Decreases Value.

Auburn is trying to sell Robinson on being a surefire top 5 pick. Hard to imagine that a returning All-SEC lineman who is incredibly athletic and more refined wouldn't be top 5

No way Robinson is top 15 this year considering Jake Matthews, Cyrus K and Taylor Lewan are all coming out



Tre Mason isn't going to increase his draft stock with another year. The knock isn't on game film or ability but on his size. He ain't growing anytime soon so nothing staying is going to help.RBs shelf life is short and due to his success here, he will be given a shot early because the team that takes a chance on him will want to see if he can ball

No way? Matthews is a Top 5 pick. Robinson has probably outplayed the other two, especially Lewan who decided to return for his SR year and likely lost money after an average season. Robinson is the hottest prospect in the country; scouts are drooling over his elite run blocking and upside as a pass blocker. If he stands out against FSU dont be surprised if he is a consensus Top 10-15 pick.

So what do we expect RB to look like next year? Will CAP step into the Mason workhorse role?

I assume Grant will still be used mainly as an outside guy or can he step up and assume a more inside the tackles?

Barber or Thomas or any other of young guys gonna be ready to step up and make a significant contribution?

Wish everybody would come back, we would be a surefire top 5 pre-season pick though I understand the decision not to.

Cyrus K hasn't been all that great this year.

I am not sold on Robinson being a top 10 pick right now. He stays another year and he is all but guaranteed a top 5 next year

What about Dismukes? Has he played himself into a first day pick, and would he be likely to test the waters? Would hate to lose him and Robinson.

I think the SECCG performance and the Heisman invite pretty much assures Tre is declaring. Good luck to him!

Centers dont declare early. Dismukes will be back.

dismukes is a more important piece to the puzzle than robinson...

if GR does declare, will be an interesting battle this spring... some guys there with talent. Gotta think Young slides to LT and Miller gets his job back at RT... Coleman will get a look though.

Coleman is a wildcard both the cancer and how much he lost due to cancer are question marks
