Would have helped this defense way more than playing rush edge. IMHO I wish him the best moving forward !!!! Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Are these guys getting class credit for these announcements? Is it just me or do they seem to be getting longer and longer? 2 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 I, for one hate to see him go. Would have liked to see him under a new staff. And, if he got beat out by someone better, fine. Team is better. But, good luck to him and understand the decision. 1 Quote Link to comment
chamrocck Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Good luck to Garrett. As Matt Millen would say like a thousand times kid has a motor, and it never turns off. I would have liked to see him one more year as easily would be a defensive captain and improve his draft stock. Quote Link to comment

Does he even get drafted? That's the question he should be asking himself bc even JoJo didn't get drafted. Best of luck!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment

I think he's simultaneously in position that he's a mid-late round pick but probably wouldn't improve his draft stock with another year here. He's shown what he can do. He's given a lot to Nebraska and, frankly, cared more about the Program than his head coach. He's the only player that played with passion most of the time. 4 3 1 Quote Link to comment
chamrocck Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 I think he’ll get drafted as he was a Big 10 second teamer. Not sure if anyone knows but I imagine first and second team all conference guys I think are pretty well drafted. Not sure why peeps saying he wouldn’t benefit from another year as I think his stock would rise but it’s not 100% a certainty as anything can happen. If the team improves he’d certainly benefit but I understand he’s in a good enough spot right now and has to consider a lot. Can’t blame him for striking while his iron is somewhat hot. I’d easily draft him over Mathis. 4 Quote Link to comment
Big Red Viking Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 I wish him luck and hope he gets drafted. Some of last years player learned the hard way about the draft. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

I put very little stock in him getting selected 1 Quote Link to comment

If we think our coaching has improved along with our scheme, I don’t see why he wouldn’t have a chance to play better. Heck, just having some better players around him, could improve his own performance. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 I gotta think someone like Nelson does a bit of outreach to the draft analytics and coaching community to get a rough estimate of his draftability before making this announcement. If you even get some non-binding Priority Undrafted endorsements it would tempting to earn NFL practice squad coin next year rather than risk injury, demotion, or a lower profile on a better defense. Prefer he'd stay another year and think Nelson would be well-served on a better team with better coaching, but don't think there's much to read into this. Honest question: for guys on this fringe, would a modest NIL package make the decision to stay easier, and wouldn't a Garrett Nelson get some local NIL love? 1 1 Quote Link to comment
