Why did Tre Mason not go until the 3rd round of the NFL draft?

I didn't have time to read the entire NFL draft thread. Is he injured? He graded out a 78 which is lower than I expected.

Rode hard and put up wet.

Gimmick back. We were told he was better than Hill. Pretty shocking.

Teams tend to draft good players first, so no surprise here.

The first running back didn't go until the 54th pick. Tre was the 75th pick

With the obscene number of times Gustav made him run it is onviously wore the frick out. Hes lucky he went as high as he did. Big risk drafting him.

I actually liked his versatility, he played in a couple different offensive styles

ETA: I have a sneaking suspicion he will have a long productive NFL career, maybe better than Robinson

Well, two other RB's were taken before Mason. A bit surprising considering some of the Auburn fans here were saying Mason was the best ever college RB.

They didnt say best ever. Just better than Hershel but not as good as B-b-bo.

He was good enough to be drafted before any Georgia player was drafted

Did you really think leaving this out of the OP made anyone think it wasn't really about this.

BTW do you have a link where Auburn fans on here said Mason was the best CFB RB ever? I will hang up and listen.
