He will sign FA and we'll see what happens from here
Playing another year of SEC football means nothing? Mangum had nothing left to accomplish but came back for his senior year.

And I have never seen a CB who runs a 4.6 pull out a timer to see if the receiver he is covering can run 15 hundreds of a second faster than him. It?s like saying a boxer who is 6?3? 225 with a 78 inch reach is going to dominate the boxer who is 6?3? 215 with a 74 inch reach.
Exactly , it really only means something relatively within a certain range. Yea you can?t be a r b in the nfl with a 4.9 forty but when you get down to 4.4 to 4.6 where most everybody is it doesn?t mean much, Emmett smith did not have a good forty time I believe I?ve seen him as slow as 4.6 . Walter Payton,late in his career did likely not have a great forty time but he was still probably the greatest back of all time. Cutting ability, game speed when someone is chasing you , acceleration out of the hole, vision, anticipation...none of that is measured in the straight ahead forty. Physicality, stiff arm, breaking tackles....I?d take an old Payton over just about anybody playing today. Of course early in Payton?s career he was fast as hell. Can?t measure heart.

Hell, basically all of them. There's a reason why they're on an nfl roster and Polk is hoping to survive training camp

Is Polk ever going to see NFL? I just think that Spurrier Jr was right on Polk and I think Polk got bad advice. It was a stacked year for WR's and he could have worked another year at MSU and maybe been a 3rd-5th rounder. Is there no value in playing SEC football? Monetary-NIL, Academic?, Noteriarty? Should everyone who has accomplished all they can acommplish as juniors just not play as seniors? I really don't understand leaving school early if you aren't promised to be a 1st - 3rd rounder. You can improve....Yes, you can improve. You can accomplish more.

Ha don?t even try. I?m convinced people on here watch only MSU tape and convinced because someone is the best player on our middle of the pack college team, they are going to be the same in the NFL

Sure but MLB he will never see. He's a singles hitter

I think we agree on this, so not sure what we arguing.

On a personal level he definitely should have come back to get a free degree and get laid for another year. Might have even snuck into one of the late rounds next year, but with our offense I doubt it. You have to have above average size, speed, or route running to be an effective NFL WR. He definitely doesn?t have the first 2, and our offense is what? 5 routes maybe? So not really a chance to showcase that either

Agree. This was the wrong year to come out as a WR. O lineman, receivers and DBs seem to be the mainstays of this draft. Very reciever heavy. Just based on numbers , Polk would have been better off coming back to school for one more year. That said he will make an nfl roster.
Polk does not have any physical limitations, he has good hands, size and adequate speed athleticism.

It's highly unlikely he makes an nfl roster. Sure some UDFAs do, but I'd bet a big sum he's not on the raven's roster after 4th preseason game

Lol
If Polk doesn’t catch on with the ravens, he will catch on with another roster. I’d be shocked if he does not make an nfl roster. He should sue his agent.

Someone has no idea how hard it is to make an nfl roster. He better absolutely kill it on special teams to have any shot
