Ber798297 241 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Is he eligible for the draft after this season? If he is, do you think he’ll go? I hope we have him at least one more year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weathergeakal 283 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 He is a Redshirt Sophmore. In order to enter the draft, you have to be 3 years removed out of high school. He graduated HS in 2015 so in the 2018 draft, he could enter. I don't think he will nor should he. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClaytonAU 4,606 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Yes he’s eligible, but I don’t know that he will. I don’t think he’s in a rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTigerGrad09 22 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 It is hard to tell with young folks these days, but I feel that Jarrett will stay at least another year. He seems to be driven by more than a quick buck........... but only time will tell........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowebb11 9,307 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Hopefully he will return to be a Heisman finalist along with Kerryon and Pettway. Beat Bama and WDE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CCslim 56 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 He isn't going pro. Even if he did, I know what my eyes see in Willis. That's not a knock on Stidham in anyway, im just saying we will be in good hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewhiz7 273 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 He will be back at Auburn next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems like a smart young man so leaving early and taking a lower draft place doesn't seem smart to most of us (from our perspective). At the risk of sounding selfish, i think another year would be great for him, for Auburn and for a young, maturing M. Willis. JMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldaufeller 367 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 3 minutes ago, shabby said: would he even be drafted...... I think it depends on how he/we close the season. If he gets hot on the board good for him. I don't see the body of work being complete enough but in the end he has to decide the best route for himself. We have guides and counsels where appropriate but what I say is "I support your decision" -- and I mean it. I want all our young players to succeed on and off the field. Now and in the future.

weagl1 1,781 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Let's remember he was pretty much a freshman at the beginning of the season. He definately needs another year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAG 33,955 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 42 minutes ago, shabby said: would he even be drafted...... Of course. You know ho desperate teams are for QBs ? Especially QBs with the build of JS? He just isn’t ready , IMO. Still needs to work on reading the defense, handling game speed and taking the snap from under the center. Off potential alone , I am sure he can be a 3rd to fourth rounder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I_M4_AU 7,762 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 There’s too many good QBs coming out this year, Stidham would be best served to return next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GwillMac6 20,607 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 That dude has too much Auburn in him!!! lol. He has really grown to totally embrace any and everything about Auburn in his almost year on campus! I LOVE IT! IT WORKS OUT PERFECT FOR US!!! He is def coming back. But since I am supersticious I will still knock on wood! haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaker 2,457 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Not to change the direction of the topic, but when he comes back, he is stacked at all the skill positions on O. What a great thing to return to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notjeffco 13 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 With the NFL salary cap in place for rookies leaving early unless you are a virtual lock for a top two round selection isn't what it once was. Then again if he closes out the season, (and playoffs) in spectacular fashion that might warrant a top two round grade. Then you gotta take the money.

I agree for two reasons: I think his stock goes up if he can work with Lindsey for 2 seasons and physically - if he were my son, I would not want an NFL sized DL squashing him. He needs a little more mass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeek 16,613 Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 I love JS but he isn't going anywhere. He's not a phenomenal quarterback and he's not a freak athlete. He should stay as many years as possible and continue to improve his game. I think his ceiling without years of gaudy numbers is probably the third round.
