Blackmon ----> Jeffrey ------> -------> Floyd

Blackmon ----> Jeffrey ------> -------> Floyd

Blackmon I'll agree with. Jeffrey no. I actually like Cunningham of MichSt over Jefferies.

the hype around the kid out SC was pretty big pre-season but has died down A LOT if I say so myself.

I haven't heard anything about him all year.

Kalil not declaring is gonna throw a cog in my system of mock drafting.

Probably because he doesn't have a QB.

Surprised about Kalil's decision, was hoping Minnesota could pick him up. I could see them going after Blackmon or Jeffrey heavily now.

Probably because he doesn't have a QB.

Those guys usually help don't they?

Lattimore going down probably didn't help either.

Let's not forget Floyd was playing with Tommy Rees.

I don't think you can really go wrong with any of the three.

Don't be surprised to see Travis Howard go pro... even though he has no reason to.

Notre Dame LB Manti Te'o to return for senior year

Manti Te'o won't be bidding aloha to Notre Dame just yet.

The junior linebacker -- considered a potential first-round pick in the upcoming NFL Draft -- will return to the Irish for his senior season, his father, Brian, confirmed to the Tribune via text message on Sunday night.

Te'o apparently -- and somewhat shockingly -- made the news public at the Lott IMPACT Trophy awards banquet in Newport Beach, Calif. The Laie, Hawaii, native was a finalist for the award, which was won by Boston College's Luke Kuechly.

Brian Te'o said his son came to the decision Sunday after the family met in California on Saturday and had a "great talk" Saturday night about the stay-or-go call. Manti Te'o then finalized his decision Sunday before the banquet.

According to the Twitter feed of Fox Sports reporter Lisa Horne, Te'o said this at the ceremony: "I feel I'm not done at Notre Dame. I'll be coming back to Notre Dame."

Notre Dame later confirmed that Te'o would return for his senior year but a spokesman said there would be no official statement issued Sunday night. At the Irish's annual awards show Friday night on campus, Te'o received the student-athlete award but left the event without comment.

It is unquestionably a massive boon to the Irish defense in 2012, as Te'o led the team in tackles, tackles-for-loss and sacks in 2011 and was considered the No. 13 overall pro prospect by ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper, Jr.

Softly throwing a ball, and having a giant cushion to land on, doesn't impress me.

Sports Science has sucked ever since it left FSN.

I miss the FSN show, too.

Wasn't Greg Reid a WR? He is a CB now?
