After the news a few weeks ago that Dontavious Russell was staying for his senior year in 2018, we got the word last night of our first early entry to the NFL Draft in running back Kerryon Johnson. Apparently, his announcement opened the floodgates, and cornerback Carlton Davis made the proclamation as well as running back Kam Pettway.
That makes three early entries for the Tigers with maybe one more to go, as Jeff Holland’s likely to make a decision soon on his status for the future.
I think most Auburn fans figured that we were going to lose Carlton Davis after the season he had, being named an All-American by Sports Illustrated.
