Even with suspension, Terrelle Pryor shouldn't enter NFL Draft

A tough one. He should almost enter in my mind. It could be hard to really improve his stock anymore than what it is in 8 games next year. I bet he could still get picked up second or third round this year. I’d definitely have him ahead of Stanzi and company on my board.

but he will. I dont entirely blame him, his stock will take a major fall next year from this. Might as well go now and get that paycheck a year early, even if it may be a bit smaller

When you miss 5 games in a season it’s going to be hard to move his stock up too much higher. He won’t have enough time to make his way up the draft boards to say he’s improved from the year before. And typically with these suspensions in the NCAA it may limit how much practice time he can have etc. So he might not actually look that great when he finally gets back in.

I mean the bigger issue is, his character is really in question. Living in columbus, and his age group I’ve been around him a few times at the club scene, I can say I don’t want him on my teams. He told everyone he’s matured from when he first got there but I think 2,500 dollars worth of stuff is showing otherwise.

All this being said play this bowl game with everything you got and make it happen TP. I don’t fault him for coming out if he does. It’s his choice and I think it may be in his best interest because his draft stock most likely won’t be able to go up much.

He’ll get it even if he’s suspended. Teams won’t care about his performance in the bowl game. They should already have a grade on him by now, and it wouldn’t be affected much by the suspension or by his BG performance. He’d get drafted but not as high as next year I bet.
     Posey, however, should come on out. His stock probably won’t improve next year. I’ll bet he’s second rounder this year and next.

1. Is a he a QB or a WR?

2. With a stellar combine whats the highest he can go (raiders don’t have a 1st remember that)

If the suspension holds at 5 games then he isn’t the starting QB. That’s almost half the season. That means in the spring and early fall he isn’t the starter, for five games where he is away from the team he isn’t the starter.

That’s a lot of time and effort spent on Braxton Miller. If the team is winning and Miller is playing well (he looks pretty good) do they bring in Prior and risk upsetting the team right as the schedule is heating up? That’s not a Tressel move. If Miller stinks and the team loses some games then he comes back the hero, but if not. . .

Hard to say he’ll develop in an offense that doesn’t challenge him while not receiving the lions share of attention while they simplify said offense even more to accommodate a new starter.

He’d be better off sitting through the lockout working with a QB coach learning his new teams offense or watching from the sidelines in the NFL than doing the same thing at OSU.

        to bone up on his receiving and blocking skills. He’s gonna need them.

As a QB he will be a 5th rounder or lower no matter if he is in the 2011 or 2012 draft. Yeah, I have seen folks hype him as possibly better than Locker or such but there is no reason to believe that hype. His throwing motion is pretty bad plus his decision making in scanning the field is very poor. Then he does not have the Tebow hype so instead of being judged like Tebow or Newton he will be looked at more like Troy Smith (and not Michael Vick). 5th rounder, in other words. And that is if he comes out or stays in school.

Now if he exits the Sugar Bowl and says that he will take being a WR/TE then all sorts of buzz will ensue and he will get drafted at least 2-3 rounds higher. He could go in round 1 if he nails his workouts and why wouldn’t he?

but no one is talking about the 1 thing most all college players want….a national championship. If they can get through the first 5 games and he’s told he’ll be the starter in week 6 (presumably w/a chance at a title) I think he’d come back. If not he goes pro at probably at a lesser $ value, but hey thats his fault. One things for sure though, with an NFL contract he can pay for all the tats he wants….
