Mack to return
(Written by kencraw)
I had not been one who thought it likely that Alex Mack, the Bears awesome center, would head to the NFL early. Nevertheless there were those that thought he may leave. The good news is that he has announced his intention to stay.
Still no work on DeSean, who everyone is assuming will leave, but it seems suspiciously slow for him to make his announcement. I still think he’s going to go pro… and this from the guy who held out hope Marshawn would stay.

Good news about Mack, been reading that he may move to LT to get the $$ next draft.
Regarding the Desean/Marshawn thing, it was obvious Marshawn was leaving early since RBs only have so many carries in their body, and need to get paid before they wear out. Also, RB is one of the easiest if not the easiest position to transition to in the NFL (LB being the other).
WR, on the other hand, is one of the toughest transitions to make and Desean might realize this since his bro has some NFL exp. Right now he might go first round, but more due to his return skills than his receiving skill. Hopefully Desean sticks around, right now I’d say its 50/50 since he had a disappointing season, before the season I woulda said 90% chance he goes pro early.
