Message: [QUOTE="oli44, post: 1031985, member: 989"] Not to pile on Brian but another reason why his logic is flawed is the assumption that coming back for another year is automatically going to improve your draft position. This just isn't the case. Take a look at my etcha-sketch lottery breakdown of the last 4 drafts. Upperclassmen (Juniors and Seniors) make up a [I]minority[/I] of the lottery. Where in the lottery are all these Junior and Seniors who are benefiting from the extra "development" they're getting in college ? There just isn't that many. Just off the top of my head guys like Sullinger and McAdoo actually hurt their draft stock by coming back. I'm sure there's many others (hell, maybe even Fair). The reality is whether Grant leaves this year or next year chances are, it's not going to drastically impact where he goes in the draft. So why lose 2+ million to find out ?
