I understand what people are saying, and as a fan, I obviously have a vested interest in seeing him return. But I think leaving now is probably the best move for him. Every scout is going to be fully aware that his lack of production this year was due to the ACL tear that kept him sidelined for almost the entire season, which just makes it a question of whether he's "back." I think the the catches he had in both of the games against Bama, especially that acrobatic one on Monday, have addressed any doubts there. Wouldn't surprise me at all to see him go in the first round.
Good luck, George. Thank you for changing your mind back on Signing Day a few years ago. Regardless of where you're drafted, I know you're going to absolutely ball out in the NFL. Thanks, again. And Go Dawgs!
Going to be real, he was the best player on the team.
