3rd round because he clog up the middle!

Steve Walker

I wish this question specified early, late or not at all concerning the draft. I think he will be taken 5 round or later. Of course if he blows up during the combine then that changes everything. I just don't think as it stands now that he has enough on 2015 film to justify an early pick.

Jonathon Siminoe

Low 4th or 5th round pick, but probably has the size and strength for the pro game now. If he'd have put in another year he could have been far more prized. Still I like his shot. GBR.

Travis Rager

I think he is more ready than Collins for the pro game. Collins needed another year in the weight room. Valentine will be a plugger in the nfl. 3-4 nose or runs stuffing 4-3 dtackle. Collins has Pro Bowl potential, but is not ready.

Brian

Not sure he'll be happy with where he's picked but I think someone will see his potential and give him a shot.

Jerry Williams

He has shown a force to reckon with.

Wasn't ready to come out

Tom Gray

He'll play in the NFL, but he doesn't have the numbers to warrant being drafted.

Robert Dodd

I dont think so. I think another year with the Huskers would have prepaired him alot better for the NFL.

Darrin Sollars

he needed one more year

Kevin Hamilton

HE NEEDED TO STAY IN SCHOOL ANOTHER YEAR AND SHOW SOMETHING.

Nate Zirbel

He didn't have a productive year he was hurt most of the time and when he was in he didn't have that much of an impact when he was one on one and he can't split the double team very well

as long as it works

Larry Johnson

I do not care HOW the punting is done. Only that it leads to WINS.

Steve Rentzell

If something is broken, what does it hurt to try something different. Insanity- Doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

Danny Purcell

taking full advantage of college rules

Ron Graf

I like this style of punting. With the roll-out, it keeps the defense honest by keeping them in position in case of runs/throws by the punter.

Anything less than a drop kick just isn't trying. Additionally, NU had a punter who averaged 44 yards a kick and he had to transfer for a player to be named later. Maybe get the rugby guy in and set in place before upending what would have been a solid punting game.

Too much hassle (200 miles away) for an unknown event.

Tom Cullinan

The event is a non-starter compared to the structure of actual plays and the support of young men working to find their place on the team.

Richard Johnson

No interest in 7-on-7.

Dan Larsen

Live in Dayton, Ohio! 800 miles one-way.... but I am a season ticket holder. See you during the season.

Ryan Goecke

If I want to see a carnival or a faire I'll go see one. This change shows fear of being a competitor on the part of Rhule and NU Athletics. It's embarrassing.

Dave Kapke

I live in Colorado

Kent Haynes

I can see both sides. But it is losing a tradition.

Bruce Craig

Losing the best recruiting tool of the spring and losing the money it would bring in is not smart in my opinion.

Robert Lloyd

It's not a game. This was our tradition. Not a good decision on Rhule's part.
