Message: [QUOTE="steve deberg, post: 4420882, member: 2856"] This is the most important factor. The calculus for leaving early is; what will I make on my first contract, and how old will I be when I sign my second contract (likely four years after being drafted). RBs don’t go in round 1, and don’t go often in round 2 (generally speaking). I’ve always seen Tucker as a round 3-5 pick. RBs don’t look to make their generational wealth in the draft. Being 26 in the first year of his second contract vs being 27 could be big difference in total compensation and (most importantly) guaranteed money. He doesn’t stand to gain much at all staying another year. [/QUOTE]
