Presser comeing up. Most are saying he's staying. Colin Cowherd, who never breaks news, stated he had it on VERY good authority that he was staying. HArd to tell when COlin's being serious, but, I think he was.
Looks Like Bradford Is Staying

I have a hard time seeing his draft stock get any higher than it would be this year. The numbers he put up this year were tremendous, and it's not like the questions as to whether he's a system quarterback will go away as long as that shotgun based spread offense remains in place at Oklahoma.

I've had a feeling it would be either Bradford or Sanchez declaring. After this, I can see Sanchez making the jump.

Just confirmed. He's staying.

Also, according to Chris Mortensen, Mark Sanchez is turning pro.

Bradford really didnt care about the money. He wanted to stay and win a championship. Stinks he convinced his TE and T to stay as well. Both would of been first round picks most likely. He has a good shot and heisman number two now
the OT (Trent Williams) should've stayed regardless. He would've been a first rounder, yes, but he'd be drafted behind Andre Smith,Eugene MOnroe,Jason Smith, and Michael Oher for sure, probably even Eben Britton. Next year he's likely the first OT taken.
Sanchez still says he's undecided, but I think he enters (agree with Mort). No matter what, Bradford just made Nate Davis and Josh Freeman a lot of money.

yea i think williams should of stayed. Grisham i think should of entered, him and bradford. Maybe he didnt wanna go to the lions. I guess that would wanna make me stay in school too.

People laugh at this, but, I think there is some truth to it. Literally...That is the worst team in NFL history. Kids that are used to being winners don't want to lose.

yea exactly, i wouldnt be surprised if that was the real reason. The lions are mess, it could potentially ruin him going there. I dont blame him at all for wanting to stay.
the funny thing is, Detroit might hold off on drafting a QB until 2010, when Bradford will be available.
Agreed, I can see them going OT first this year and letting Stanton or Orvolosky get a chance.
Then next year get their guy.
Then again it all depends who is available later in round 1 or round 2. But I think they have 3 of the first 33 picks. Unless they LOVE a QB prospect, I seriously would get an OT and go defense twice.
