    DAT must have read my post where I said we should trade him.

    In other news, Mo Williams has declared for the NFL draft as well.

    So what is our depth chart at RB next season. This is a huge loss right?

    it's a huge loss, but at the same time the cupboards have never been so full of top talents. The RB depth order is probably Jr. Byron Marshall, Soph. Thomas Tyner & Redshirt Freshman Kani Benoit. Two highly touted Freshman from this next class will join them.

    I won't be surprised if Tyner leap-frogs Marshall. Kid showed flashes of being really special.

    Could be... I expect both will be drafted as both have NFL size and athleticism. Both were the top rated West Coast backs in their respective classes... good times to be a Duck!

    DAT has been projected to be a late round pick. I doubt he'll be much more than a return man in the NFL, but he could be a damn good one. He's got a similar build and athletic ability to Trindon Holliday, the 5'5 170 KR for the Broncos. He runs a 4.3 and has put up nice stats in the return game.

    There are a few other guys as fast as him, but a lot of those guys can't seem to walk and chew gum. Used in some moderation, he's a matchup nightmare for most defenders and a constant threat to take it to the house. My guess is that he'll go by the 3rd round... wouldn't be surprised if ends up w/Chip
