    I believe we may have two linebackers on the preseason all-SEC list next year. I’m just not sure which two. I would think Graham will be one.

    Just copied this info from a search on google: "The minimum salary for a first-year player is currently, as of 2024, sitting at $795,000. This amount applies exclusively to NFL rookies during their debut season. As they advance, the minimum rises to $870,000 and $940,000 by the third year.

    As for Shemar James, College Networth on November 11, of this year reported the following info: "Currently, Shemar James has an On3 NIL Valuation of $91,000, placing him at rank No. 775 among college football players."

    I am not sure how accurate that info is.

    As for Shemar James staying with UF next year, that is up to what his NFL Draft Ranking/Status. If it is very high, that $91,000 will not keep him with the Gators.

    James started next to Burney in 2022 against Utah. Last year we just said the hell with it and played damn near all of our true freshmen defenders extensively (Ja’Keem, Kelby, Searcy, Kamren James, Jaden Robinson, Castell, and Thorton and Denson late in the season) and just lived with the results and after a few bumps earlier this season, look at the majority of them now.

    Graham looked amazing against ole miss. At the game, his size was very impressive.

    I hate to say this but James might be better off transferring to another school if he decides to stay in college. I'd hate to see it happen but he might get more playing time at another school.

    Hes got SEC size at 18, he's physically impressive. He seems to have a nose foe the ball as well, when he's out there, he's making plays.

    He’s the starter here now? So he goes somewhere else and maybe gets 5-7 snaps more??? That ain’t the issue

    He might get fewer snaps next year because of the other guys.
