You mean s "chance" at being drafted?

Nah.. I said what I mean... Whether they get drafted or not is irrelevant. It's whether they think they *will* and what they believe is in their best interest. As you said, I thought Nauta made a horrible decision. Same for Ridley. I've finally been persuaded that Holyfield *unfortunately* may have made the best decision for himself... If he wasn't going to improve his 40 time, he was going to have a hard road through the draft anyways... Might as well go try in a year where RB is a poor draft class overall. This year will have a lot more talent and he'd have just slid down farther.

As said earlier,Thomas has only one season under his belt and was a semi project as a true Freshman.I think he benefits greatly by sticking it out after this season.

Presumably you meant Wilson here. Thomas has 2 seasons in obviously and has been a stud. WE would benefit greatly by him sticking around, but he likely would not. Wilson is a question mark for me... if he has a stud season and we go to the playoffs, he'll have a ton of buzz, all the right "measurables", and enough footage and spotlight on a very good team that he might consider it. I agree that he could probably benefit with another year, but the question becomes how much. If he's a late 1st round or early 2nd round pick, that's probably not far off of his ceiling as what amounts to exclusively a RT (or maybe a shift to the interior at the next level?) prospect... Again, it's less about what he will get drafted at and more about what he believes... That's hard to predict.
