Fwiw, Richt talked about this in an interview I heard earlier this year. The reporter asked about draft grades, Richt responded that the advisory committee only gives first and second round grades but that he has relationships with scouts, agents, GMs, and NFL coaches that can give Brad a realistic take on where he might get drafted to help him make a more informed decision. So it is entirely possible that Brad was told he'd likely get drafted in the 4th or 5th round by NFL sources through Richt.

Exactly.
I don't get why everyone is so stuck on the first two rounds grade , there's other ways of feeling out where a kid will get drafted.
 
So he just got his grade back & he got a grade of low fifth round. He's not the type that will impress at combines either. Not really a physical specimen so he pretty much knows his grade. Knowing Angela I can't see her supporting a decision to leave now & brad is every bit as mama's boy. Considering that & our schedule next year I'd have to guess (emphasize I'm guessing here)that he'll be back. With him here next year & oline tightened up well be in the playoffs period.

When are they gonna open up the playbook?

Are they waiting to surprise Manny in spring ball?

You're absolutely right. Next year maybe we'll average 70 to appease you. You voted for Trump didn't you...

Yep... I like really like Cane Dynasty but voting wisely isn't his strongest point.

Aside from the fact that the old hag was a terrible candidate that rightly should be kept as far away from the White House as possible, if your kids were doing what my daughter is doing you'd have voted for Trump twice.

It's a good thing my canephew brother that I don't play the games chise & some of these other characters on here play cause boy did you just open up an awfully big door.
 
The longer we don't hear anything, the more it indicates that he's coming back, IMO. If he was confident about his draft status we would have already heard that he's declaring.

Agreed. Decision is taking a long time. Usually guys announce right after their season is over so they can start preparing.

I'm not sure staying another year is going to help him with the deficiencies that he has. He's not going to get much more mobile.

This offense we run is not well suited for him either. 1 of the 3 options in the RPO (QB Run) is basically a non-existent threat to the defense.

That said, hope he stays because he is a good college QB and it gives us another year to develop his successor.
Whether he likes it or not, putting it on film will play a part in his draft stock. He's not going to get faster or start breaking runs, but if he wants any kind of success in the NFL - even if that means sticking around as a legitimate backup - he'll have to show he can slide in and around the pocket.

If he leaves, and is fortunate enough to be selected in the 3rd round, he'll have to pick up that skill and show it off while being on the chopping block. That's best case scenario if he leaves early. If he stays, he has a year to put it on film, potentially jump into the 2nd round and more guaranteed money, while getting more leeway from an NFL team than a 3rd-5th rounder would. A lot of it depends on where he'd eventually go this year, obviously.
2nd round is a sound decision.
3rd round is questionable to leave but not terrible.
4th or 5th round is an outright bad decision.

What he's told before the draft is one thing. It's still a risk on his part.

More important to me is what it means for Miami. If he can't do anything to improve, then are we sitting in the same boat we were this year with either a very good QB or a terrible one at the helm depending on if he creates pressure in his head?
I think he'd be our best option next year. I have no real idea if the guy stays or goes, but I think it'd mutually beneficial for both sides. Of course, as others have mentioned to me (I'm in no way connected to Kaaya), you never know what goes into someone's reasoning.

I sort of disagree here....I think we know what we are getting with Kaaya. Can he win 10 games next year, yes...can he take us to the playoffs, no. I don't think he's athletic enough, with our o-line, to beat elite defenses. I'm not sure if Allison would, but at least I am not sure he can't.

IMHO the question is are you good with 9-10 wins, or do you want to go with the higher risk higher potential reward and roll with Perry or Allison.
I've heard similar rationales before (San Fran: Alex Smith vs. Kaep) and understand it. Just don't agree with it in this case. Kaaya can get better sliding in the pocket. He doesn't have to suddenly become fast to improve that skill. If he does get better at that skill, it changes his game and our outcomes. I think that at least challenges the assumption Kaaya's ceiling is 9-10 wins. It's all nonsense until he makes a decision anyway. I've heard some say he's really thinking of it. Others have told me he's 100% gone. Who knows.
 
On the other hand, the mock draft for next year posted as part of an earlier discussion on this site, has four quarterbacks going in the first round, suggesting that competition will be greater next year. Meanwhile the UNC quarterback, assumed to be the top in this draft had a bowl game with about 250 yards, one TD and two interceptions.

If Brad was told he's going in the 5th round, then it definitely serves him best to come back. At the 5th round you're not guaranteed anything and it's a good possibility you won't even make a roster. He'd be looking at best 2nd string QB or practice squad.

i am convinced that some people just write caca just for the sake of writing and therefore they have nothing intelligent or valuable to share.

what your original post said was as clear as bimini water. thank you for that information and valuable contributions. disregard the idiots.

i have no idea what he's going to do, but the trend is that people on the fence usually chose to go. he's a pretty different kid though and i think his statement that he is torn is sincere and hence why we havent heard anything. but why should we since nothing is pressing or pending.

his weaknesses are a liability and overwhelm his assets, but do you want to be paid while learning or do it for free at the U? i hope he stays.

These kids here are pikers compared to the liberal press.

he can go but he is not ready because he has no pocket presents. we could have won more games if he would have extended some plays in the pocket by stepping side by side or running, plus he throws the ball to early or holds it to long, facts!!

Are pocket presents similar to presents put in stockings? Is it a Festivus thing? Kwanzaa? Boxing Day?

Fax!
 
After the bowl game he told a reporter he'd have a decision in the first few days of January - I'm assuming that's still his timeline....
