I've become skeptical of guys entering the portal at the end of their careers after putting up good stats. it seems like everyone we've had who fit that description were guys who didn't have the measurables to go to the draft and ended up being disappointments
You don’t think he’s better than what we got?
 
No idea, but safety isn't one of the more valuable positions for NIL

If he had the measurables you'd think the draft would make more sense. But maybe he wants a year of film against better competition
And you think a safety from SDSU who is possibly going to follow his DC is going to command a big NIL check or what? We can still take a dude in the portal without giving him much NIL.

No, you missed my point entirely. If a guy like that has the measurable it makes more sense for him to go to the draft. That makes me think he doesn't, so he might not look nearly as good against better competition

I mean your first point was about NIL. I don’t disagree with that statement but there are a lot of good college football players who don’t make it in the NFL. Ive never watched a snap of this dudes career but im just talking in general.
