Matt Kalil to stay at USC. Does Barkley follow?

NFL Draft 2012: Matt Kalil stays at Southern Cal despite being top OT prospect - NFL - Sporting News

Changes things a bit. Good for them if they do, but for my own selfish reasons that may be 2 less players to dilute the crop of players when the Pats pick.

Personally I think they both stay. They are going to wreak havoc on the Pac 12, Bowl eligible, could go 1 and 2. Then again if they left they could go 2 and 3. If it were me I'd think about my future and bolt.

He would have gone top 3. Don't quite get it.

Bad for NE, we wouldn't have drafted Kalil or Barkley.

Scout.com has gotten confirmation from Kalil himself that the report he's staying in school is just a rumor.

Thats two spots ahead of us. Lowers our chance of getting who we want.

Re:Update: Kalil will go pro

PFT is reporting that Kalil will go pro afterall. And Barkley will probably join him.

They'll probably both be top 5 picks. That should help push someone decent down to us.
