MY INSIDERS ARE TELLING ME THAT NAJEE HAS POTENTIALLY 83% MADE HIS DECISION TO GO OR COME BACK, MAYBE, PERHAPS, TO THE NFL OR COLLEGE

T-Watts update summary

- as of today Najee hasn't decided
- college very much an option, been back and forth all week
- cautious optimism he is returning
- his biggest question is whether another year helps his draft stock and he hasn't come to a conclusion
- some NFL guys say he is what he is, some say he can cut down his 40 and have a monster season = rise on boards
- neither decision would be a surprise
- probably know within 24-48 hours, but no firm timeline

50/50 right now. I won't be surprised if he comes back unless he doesn't. As with all things at this juncture, the situation is fluid and things could change by the minute.

On a serious note, he's gone.

I think that is the most likely result, but I also think if Tim Watts posted what he did that it's legit and Najee is trying to decide whether another year could make him more money.

In the end I'm guessing he either decides it doesn't or that he isn't sure, and if either is the case he defaults to leaving.

Obviously.
Najee needs to find an extra gear.

I don’t think he can, tnough.

Yea, outside of slimming down some I guess, I'm not sure how that happens.

However, if he can somehow figure out a way to just get a tick faster............he goes from a really nice power back to an all around freak.

I don't think it does, but having him back would be huge.

How much improvement actually helps a RB when the NFL has moved to a passing league? I guess he could improve his route running(but he's already really good there) and his speed(could definitely see some improvement there).

He needs to spend some time with the track coach during the offseason like my boy Ennis Rakestraw, Jr.

I'd love to have him back.

If he comes back, Bama's RB Room Reaction.

Notice the letter H on that box, which is also the first letter in Najee's last name.

I redact what I said, I think they're hinting at a comeback
