      Isn’t it always bad teams drafting in the top? What does he expect, chiefs to somehow be able to trade up and get him? Pigs farting rainbows seems more likely.

      Then he can refuse to sign with one of those shitty franchises and force a trade. There’s precedent for that, he has the leverage, and it’s a better decision than playing another unpaid year in college and possibly suffering a major injury.

        He’s a WR. He has no leverage at all. No one is risking the opprobrium that would come with that for anything less than a franchise altering QB.

      Yeah as a Ohio State fan he’s said all year that all he wants to do is beat Michigan and win the Big Ten, with that being said he’d be a idiot not to return. Stroud said similar things last year but at the 11th hour declared, and rightfully so

            He missed like 30 million due to the rookie contract changes. Locker is a great example of why you go pro when you can.

              He also had the quote “If I can’t be happy with $6 million then I’m doing something wrong” paraphrasing but money was never his motivation. He’s my all time favorite athlete. He was talked about this a few times and has said he wouldn’t trade giving UDub their first bowl win in a long long time for leaving early. He’s a country boy living in his hometown of Ferndale and has more than enough money to be happy. He’s the man.

                Would be nice to hear that sort of thing more. Like when a player is insulted by a 200 million dollar contract because they want 220 million. Like at what point does it not make a difference anymore?

                There’s something to be said for the massive changes in your life going from college to the “real world”

                Maybe Marvin really likes his college life and wants one more year of it before 10+ years of similar nfl life. They will likely all be great years for him I bet.

                It always felt like justifying his choice with some regrets, but what do I know. Locker is a badass though, I actually watched college football for a few years bcuz of him.

                  No he knew what he was doing. It was the year that they were going away from those massive rookie contracts. So he already knew he was throwing money away.

        Ironically you can throw another USC QB in that mix with Leinart, guy was the sure fire #1 and stayed his Snr year the fell to 10, obviously not a drop like Barkley but still significant at the time.

          Difference there is Leinart was trying to win a third straight national championship. I don’t think aiming for a third straight Peach Bowl appearance has the same pull.

          Also, his QB is Kyle McCord.

      Why worry about never beating Michigan when he can come to the Bears and never beat another team from Michigan, Minnesota or Wisconsin again! At least he’ll be making millions doing it.

        McCord is his high school QB. He came to OSU to play with McCord. I doubt he cares about McCord throwing to him

      Bears got 2 chances on getting him so my money is on them. If they were strategic they can get a new QB for him with their pick and get him with Panthers pick.

    With how bad offense has been this year, the NFL can’t afford him to wait another year

      of all the teams that look bad, I don’t want any of them getting their hands on him. I can’t wait for Arthur Smith and the Falcons to have MHJR, Bijan and Pitts, 3 of the most hyped offensive prospects of the last 5 years, and still have Jonnu Smith as weapon number 1

        Where the fuck is this take that Atlanta is getting mhj coming from? Aren’t they picking outside the top 5 at the moment?

        I need the falcons to draft MHJ and trade for Justin fields.

        Imagine what algeier could do with 20 touches in that offense!

    MHJ is going to be a Chicago Bear #1 overall via Panthers. He’s a better prospect than Chase who is showing he was well worth the #5 pick.
