CNNsi writer says he's hearing Gabe Jackson is going pro, what say ye?
- Thread starter The Usual Suspect
- Start date
wouldnt be a big surprise- he will likely be the 1st or 2nd Guard drafted from what it is looking like
this projection has him 5th right now and a 3rd rounder...if he stays there, might be best for him to return

I don't see it
He's yet to be able to get out and block the screen pass. No way he's a 1st or 2nd rounder if scouts watch film. He hasn't had a great year.

for what it's worth kiper has him as his top junior guard prospect. at least he was a couple weeks ago.
Would depend somewhat on who is going to be eligible next year. I have absolutely no idea what kind of OG talent is coming out next year, but Im sure the NFL scouts will be able to tell him and help him make a decision on whats best. 3rd round is pretty decent for a junior OG, but if there isnt a ton of legit talent coming out next year then a late 1st or 2nd round is a lot more money and worth sticking around.
If that's the case
I think you definitely stay in school. If you come back, there's a decent chance you could be a first round pick rather than a third round pick.

Almost all jrs around the country do this, just so everyone is clear about the process...
Gabe most likely comes back. Everywhere I can see, he is looking at a 1-2 round improvement by returning...and is a likely first rounder as a SR. Much like Banks, it will likely be to his overall benefit to return. That is, unless he just feels like he HAS to go ahead and go pro for whatever reason...in which case he's a late 2nd-early 4th rounder...
