Codey, you are correct. M. Kelly will probably get drafted but will never never achieve at this level. Even staying another year probably wouldn't help. He is too self centered and not a true team player. The NFL will dump him. If he would have stayed he might earn a degree and have a future but he will be selling stereos at the local best buy. Too bad.

(As aforementioned in another one of my previous posts, but still applies here) Projection: Kelly, Smith AND Lofton 1st round draft picks.......IN '09!!! (Based upon past improvements, and barring any injuries or other unforeseen variables.) In some cases, it is advantageous (financially, and/or otherwise) for players to leave early. In each of these particular cases, the amount of money left on the table by making the immature decision to "go-for-the-green now" is inconceivable. Each one of these players would have benefited greatly (as a person and financially) if they would have chosen to stay another year (Kelly included, although, with his mother's ailing health, he is hardly to blame). Neither can I blame these "kids" for forfeiting their final year of eligibility to go to the NFL, nor should anybody suggest that money was their only motivation. Ultimately, competing at the highest level is every player's goal and dream, as it should be. The NFL is just that - the highest level. It is just unfortunate that these players do not understand the amount of money they have subsequently lost by leaving a year early.
