re: Players "declaring" for the NFL who will not be drafted.

This seems to be a new-ish thing. Just noticed De'Vion Warren from Arkansas "declare" he's going to the NFL from Arkansas. He will never in a million years get drafted but he's "declaring." I've seen this with various players and everyone comments "Go be great" etc.

Sometimes players blow off school and would have eligibility problems for next season and don't feel like dealing with it. Others just may not want to play college football any and deal with what comes with it.
