So, Leonard Floyd is only a Sophmore, but he spent a year at some military community college prior to UGA, meaning he will already be eligible for the NFL draft after this season......
Does that mean we're going to lose Floyd already?
Or is it one of those deals where it' might be better for him to stay another year in college to imrove his draft stock?

I think he'll probably get a first round grade. If he does, he'll leave. He could stand to bulk up some, but he can do that just as well in the pros and get paid for it.
If he gets below a first round grade, he might stay.

I know in the offseason I read that Pruitt was selling him on improving this year and then using next year to really refine his game and help him get a big jump in the draft. Especially since it sounds like he was just "winging it 90% of the time last year" according to Floyd.
I sure hope he comes back and I honestly think it'll help make him a more well rounded LB and will get him some more money.
I think the same should apply to Jenkins (even more so than Floyd honestly)

A lot of sites I've seen have LF as a 1st round projection. Even though his production may not be AS high as we'd like, his potential is still sky high. I think it's a foregone conclusion he's gone. Wouldn't be surprised if Jenkins went as well.

His performance in the remaining games will play into this. If he continues to perform like he has thus far this season, I'm afraid he'll leave. If he regresses enough, he'll stay.

I don't think there's much of a chance he'll stay unless Pruitt sells it to him that he doesn't weigh enough yet and could be top 10 next year...
Good thing we reload with Lorenzo though

I would like him to stay and bulk up, but if he is projected early first round, then he should go. Hopefully we have one of those $70,000 insurance policies on him
I also have no doubt Lorenzo Carter will fill his shoes just fine.

I would guess if he has a first round grade, he will leave. Otherwise, he will return. He needs to bulk up a bit more and it wouldn't hurt for him to learn a bit more about anticipating an inside handoff. He needs to be prepared physically and mentally for a 4-3 NFL defense....IMHO

he needs to pick up 20-25 lbs if he moves on
