AuburnNTexas 7,134 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Prior to the season there was a lot of talk about these three going Pro after this season. The assumption was Lawson and Adams would have breakout years partly because with both on the field at same time teams could not double team both and partly because they could feed off of each other. With Lawson being hurt that has not panned out. Many were also hoping that Coleman would have learned from last year ala Robinson and also have a breakout year. Which if any do you think will go pro, what % chance and why? Coleman 60% - Solid tackle and he is getting older can't wait much longer. Adams 50% - Great size has looked great when not double teamed. If he stays chance of great year and improved draft position. Lawson 30% - Great measurable - durability issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aujeff11 6,243 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Adams is the highest. Coleman and Lawson both are below 30%. I think Coleman has been above average on the field but he hasn't been anything special in my opinion. Lawson....I don't see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeriderga 134 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 With the exception of perhaps some seniors, like Ricardo Louis,Blake Countess, and maybe Cassinova McKenzie, I do not see many NFL underclassmen from this team going to the NFL. Of course that could change, depending upon the rest of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronMan70 3,277 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 My prognostication: Adams- maybe, but shouldn't Lawson- no Coleman- no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
80Tiger 899 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Adams and Coleman both will go. Adams probably because staying does not improve draft status very much. Coleman because he is older and needs to get on with a pro career. Lawson not so much. At best one half of playing football over 2 years is not a very good resume. He has much potential and upside by staying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Miller was undersized at at around 280 and had never shown to put on the additional lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimesAU 89 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Adams and Lawson gone (they'll both get drafted easily). Guess Coleman could go? Must be nice to be a 6'7" 315 left tackle. You can be mediocre at what you do and you still have a shot at making millions. I want to be a left tackle in my next life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doc4aday 1,887 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Why worry about this now? I would love to see each player coming along to the point to where it would be realistic to where they could be drafted in the first 7 rounds. Let's worry about winning Saturday and let the rest take care of itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wde1968 262 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I don't know how Lawson could go. If he leaves after 1 game in 2 injury riddled years = undrafted free agent. He stays has a healthy beast year he is capable of = top 10 pick. Seems like a no brainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cole256 17,042 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 They need to play through the season to know really. Also depends on the numbers they can put up. If they're all the athletes we've heard they were I think they all go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUTUmike 79 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 I think Avery Young may get drafted before all of those guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnyAU 3,630 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Lawson has to make his mind up if he wants to stay and risk yet another injury, or bolt and be a late rounder/possible undrafted FA. He doesn't have the playing time to get a stellar draft grade. I hope he stays of course. He's got tremendous potential and was fast becoming a needed leader on D, even as a true Freshman.

weagl1 1,782 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Avery Young is the most likely to go pro and he would get a good draft grade so I would bet he is gone. Monty might go out of frustration but he really needs another year, hopefully with better coaching. Shon is not ready at all. Carl is going to have to get a good year on the books if he wants to be a first rounder and rake in the guaranteed money. He would be undrafted now because they would be scared of all the injuries regardless of his measurables. Of course, winning makes everyone look better and we need to do a lot of that the second half of the season and let the other chips fall where they may.

gravejd 3,270 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Pretty sure Young is a redshirt junior. I would say most likely to go would be in order.... Young Adams Coleman Lawson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ertrader 197 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Even though Young started as a true freshman, he only played in 3 games before injury and did not play the rest of the season, so he was eligible to redshirt that year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLoofus 35,182 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 IMO... ...Adams is gone. Not surprisingly, he doesn't get nearly enough respect from Auburn fans. Neither Young nor Coleman are particularly great tackles right now, but they might improve and/or get good draft evals based on metrics. Hard to tell. Good OLs tend to have longer careers, so I don't see Coleman's age overriding a really low draft eval. I would say Lawson's chances might depend somewhat on what kind of DE/LB draft class we're looking at. If it's deep, his chances might not be great.

Well awesome. I remember he applied last year for his draft grade so I assumed he was a junior then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Lawson has some freakish type numbers especially with speed and agility...peace. Only chance I think we have is pro teams will probably want to see if he could play a little rush end linebacker and that's what this year was pretty much going to show and how well would he handle being the guy everybody focused on so those questions may get him back for one more year.
