I don't think VV is NFL material at this point. Too many injuries, not enough time on the field to prove he can remain on the field.

Collins I can understand, but insurance can be taken out to cover injury. Suh benefited greatly by staying his senior year, Collins could be the same.

The financial considerations of Suh and Collins are completely different. The rookie scale in the NFL has significantly changed since Suh signed his huge rookie contract. NFL players make significantly less money on their rookie deals, and don't get huge money until their second contracts. That is why spending an extra year at NU isn't that beneficial too Collins. He should go pro, hope he kicks a$$, and get to this 2nd contract a year earlier than he would if he came back for his senior year.

it's all relative i guess, money, injury prone, development.......they both need polish and conditioning to be dominate players in the NFL.

And where are they going to get the best training, when they are full time players in the NFL and not having to deal with the hassles of college.
 
VV has the desired size for the 3-4 and nose guard in the NFL. He could drafted on that alone, as finding one while not impossible, makes the 3-4 very effective.

 
VV has tweeted a couple things about getting money and taking care of yourself. Which I have no problem with someone taking that opportunity. Think he has made up his mind and just not announced it. I bet he is gone.

 
That sucks, good luck to him. I think another year for VV would really improve his draft stock but understandable.

Time to unleash the Davis twins?

 
I really hope he reconsiders, not just for selfish reasons. From what I've heard from the local media guys, due to production, and injuries, he's a 6-7 rounder at best.

 
VV has been tweeting things all season here and there that would suggest hes just not happy in Lincoln right now for a variety of reasons and that hes ready to move on.
