NFL Draft Grades

Have the NFL Draft Grades been released yet. I wonder if that is what Shipley and Mickens are waiting on or if they have them and that is why Carter decided to come back?
Carter can be a top ten pick if he can clean up the tackling and gap fits.

I'm pretty sure all of them have that info

Shipley is seen as a "poor man's Christian McCaffrey". Everyone loves his versatility, but his flaws are glaring: fumbling and a lack of breakaway speed (crazy for a a guys that came in with such a notable track background). Shipley can get you a 20-25 yd run, but the scouts want you to have the ability to go 50+ if they are going to spend a high draft pick on a position like RB who value diminishes quickly with time. When you have the reputation as a fumbler in the NFL, you quickly find your off a roster.

Maybe Ship thinks a big game in the bowl will give him some momentum to justify putting his name in the draft. If not, he's coming back. He doesn't seem motivated by money.

No motivated by money but hopes his draft grade will improve based on a single bowl game or coming back for a senior year to improve his draft stock? All of those statements can't factually co-exist.

My fault if I'm being thick or misunderstanding.

I love what ship brings to our team and how he plays on the field, but anyone

Who compares him to McCaffrey has never seen McCaffrey play. He’s in a different stratosphere athletically than almost any RB in the world including ship. They’re both caucasion and play RB; that completes the list of their similarities.

The whole team had fumblitis early season. He is a good RB. NFL good? Not right now.
With all of the expertise on here, I’m surprised nobody sees that he needs to slow down and let the holes open.
A year from now he might be ready, but he will not be a high pick right now.
I’m afraid that this will be the norm moving forward - even those bleeding orange will feel unsuccessful should they not leave early.
He committed to 4 years and he should honor that. If he was a first rounder it would be different.
If everyone was honest with him, we shouldn’t be having this discussion. All stud athletes have been babied since age 12. This is the result.
