I've seen Davis projected that high before. Very cool to see Weaver getting some much deserved love too.

If this is true, next year could be another 1-11season.

Why would losing players who have run out of eligibility matter for that?

I'd LOVE for both of them to go in the 1st round, but I'm worried that AD's so-so season this year (compared to expectations) isn't going to help him. If I knew Weaver's 40 yd time at the Combine right now, I could affirm or repudiate his going in round one.

He's implying that they are harder to replace than expected.

He needed a random NFL mock draft to figure that out?

I'm very, VERY, skeptical that either is drafted in the first two rounds. Ashton will get drafted purely on his 40-time. If he tests we'll otherwise, he might make it the 3rd round. I don't foresee Weaver having an impressive combine. If he can run in the high 4.5's he could go very high, but that is a really big if. He just doesn't have an NFL body - and that matters.

I recall last year reading some article about Vic Wharton being the best slot receiver in college football (it was before the season) and that he be a high draft pick. We all know how that worked out. I wouldn't take any draft ranking serious until after the combine.

There's a bunch of people recently coming out of the wood works saying they are overrated/won't be missed.

They'll be missed. If you can't appreciate Weaver's game, I don't know what to say. Dude is an animal.

It isn't about being overrated or underrated, it is about how they will fit into the pro game. If Weaver doesn't run a fast 40, I don't see him being drafted in Round 1. Davis is a different story. He had a great junior year but he has not played as well this year. How will that impact his draft status? Again, I don't see him going in the first round.

I think Weaver will do ok at the combine. He shows good mobility in game, so I doubt he runs a slow 40. Not saying he will be a 4.5, but the reality is that Cal uses him a lot in pass coverage. We wouldn't be doing that if he was slow. At 235 lbs, he is smaller than ideal NFL size, but remember that last year he played at 245. If he bulks up to 255 and can keep his existing speed, the size/speed aspects will not be negative for him. His real problem isn't his fault - it's that he is a MLB. That position just isn't as highly valued.

The big question for us draft wise is whether we lose Bynum. He wanted to go last year, so obviously he would this year if he gets a high draft grade.

Weaver may get drafted but I would be REALLY shocked if it was in the first round.

It must've been a little disconcerting to NFL scouts to see Bynum get torched on that deep pass against Utah. There was a point in the play where he finally realized the receiver was going deep and then he was absolutely unable to close the gap on him. Didn't look like an NFL corner on that play.

I seriously doubt he stays for a 5th year, even if he might not go in the first round. Would be good for the team if he stays but can't see that being a good decision.
