LB Darron Lee (National Champion, Super Bowl Champion, Fugitive)

Projected as a first rounder by the guys that give 70 first round projections? 3rd sounds on the top end to me. 4th sounds more realistic. Could easily go lower. He has speed and was used a ton as a blitzer and ST guy but does he have the prototypical LB size and playstyle? See too many guys go early as project top 3 rounder and end up in the 6th or 7th and struggle.
I think the only reason Darren would stay is because of his love for Ohio State and possibly to get his degree for his mom. On the football side of it, I would be shocked to see him go lower than the second round… perhaps early third but that would be it but that is just my opinion.

Lee, Apple and Jalin. All 3 guys are on the fence to me. Of these 3, Lee is the more convincing one that will/should go early but he still has some things that will help him by coming back. He's not going as high as Shazier this year but he has the potential in the next draft.

There are arguments on either side whether these 3 should stay or go. Now Bosa, Bell, Zeke and Thomas are pretty clear. Their last game will be the destruction of the leprechauns.

Agreed. The last 4 are all but gone. But the first 3, are in a unique case because if they tear up the combines, they could really move up. But all still could greatly benefit from another year. But I'm one who's all for a kid leaving early, since football is such a violent game and you have to get the money while you're still young and strike while the irons hot. Selfishly I'd love for all 3 to return, but even if 1-2 return we'd be in a very good position next year
