What is it with our players that we have so many leave early that aren't anywhere close to being good enough to leave early. Webb, Hill, Moore. Unbelieveable.

He already has his degree and he's leaving to support his family according to his dad.

Support his family? Does he seriously think he's going to make an NFL roster? I'm not trying to be a jerk, but the young man may need a reality check.

I can't think of a backup linemen ever declaring early. Didn't WPL declare early? That's the only backup declaring that i recall.

Can we make a list of guys who declared early then didn't get drafted and didn't make the team as a FA?

WPL played for four years.

Hmmm... seems like there was another backup who declared.

I think Will Hill might have already lost his starting job to Josh Evans when he left early.

Yeah I thought Will Hill was crazy to leave early. A couple hours ago I saw him get a pick 6 against Drew Brees, which wound up being the difference in the game.

Will Hill was a 5 star kid who played like a 5 star kid... some of the time.

Tyler Moore? He's a college backup/depth at best. I really don't remember a worse OL who actually got on the field at UF. Heck, I've never seen anyone so consistently miss, just not even touch, the DT lined up across from him. It's a regular occurrence. Even in pass protection, so it's not like it was a read option with a design to leave the DT unblocked.

I've never heard that he's a gym rat or especially strong, he's definitely not fast, and his game film is going to be a nightmare... I just don't know what he thinks will cause an NFL team to consider him even as a free agent. I fully expect him not to be signed at all.

Crazy stuff with some of these Juniors except Fowler. Bullard is the only one of the others guaranteed to even be drafted. Morrison I doubt would stick to a roster now unless it was because of ST. Jones I guess it makes the most sense because his stock wont go any higher next season but he is not a lock to make a roster and will probably be taken near the end of the draft.

Hill? As in Will Hill one of the best safeties in the NFL?

One of the best? I don't see Will "The Thrill" Hill listed by anybody as one of the top safeties of the game. In fact, The SI article lists former Gators Reggie Nelson and Matt Elam as honorable mention. There may be an article out there that lists him in the top 10 (I don't see it) but I would still think "top" would mean top 3-5 and I don't think he's top top 3-5 in the NFL.

Disclosure: I watch about 1 NFL game a week so I don't follow it as close as I used to, I'm just going off of these expert pieces above. No doubt that Hill is a top talent, but his off the field antics will never allow him to realize it.
