Most interesting to me on that list is FSU.

They lose 6 juniors (but not their QB). I'm feeling real good about returning to the ACC-CG next year.

Take home another National Championship AKA Natty!!

I can’t wait to see our offense grow, can’t wait to see our QB situation work out and watch our WR’s show out.
Tee Higgins an Amari Rogers are going to be so special an I believe our Offensive line will be the best We have ever had with ETN and Beast mode running down hill!

Go Tigers!!

I don't think that we will have a 1st rounder in the 2018 draft, and this will be the first time
without a 1st rounder in a while of the draft. But I would much rather see our junior 1st rounders playing at Clemson next season that I would seeing them play in the NFL!!!

Several schools had at least 6 underclassmen in addition to Srs. That is going to be some disappointed young men in that group. One article I read today said it could be less than 30% of underclassmen are taken. Those are not very good odds.

Jean, just a few days ago I was reading the statistics of what percentage of College FB players that entered the NFL draft, and from all of them that declared for the NFL, ONLY 10% of them get drafted to play in the NFL, and only 8% of that 10% went on to have an NFL career. These kids need to understand that the risk is very high, and the best chance to improve that risk, is to stay in college and play for as long as they can to get every ounce of experience as they can get, and to never leave school without their degree regardless of what they are being told bc that degree is free to them as long as they are in school. I guess it's bc I see things as an adult bc, I don't understand these kids taking a risk that big with the rest of their lives. They should have to talk to parents that are paying that bill for their kids in college, and hear what a strain it puts in their lives to pay the cost of a college education, especially the cost of a Clemson education!!! That NFL risk will still be there after they have graduated. They do have a choice of taking out a very large insurance policy if they are injured before they take that huge risk of 10% of making it to the NFL....

Agree 100% and I think the school pays the premium for that ins policy. I know they did for Deshaun so I would assume they will for these guys too. Especially anyone with possible 1st or 2nd round draft grades

But even then the key word being "possible" 1st or 2nd round. Something may come up 30 seconds before they are picked. In this day and time a jealous family member of another recruit could blow the knee caps off the guy that is about to be drafted as the first pick of the 1st round!!! It's all a risk until the contract has been signed....
