Should they stay or should they go? That’s the burning question on the minds of Florida Gators fans, coaches and players in regards to UF’s draft-eligible juniors.

Perhaps more than anyone on campus, Florida defensive coordinator Dan Quinn knows what teams will be looking at when the 2013 NFL Draft begins April 25.

No decisions will be made public until after the Gators play Louisville in the Allstate Sugar Bowl on Jan. 2, but Quinn’s defense stands to take the biggest hit as far as playing leaving early. He offered NFL-type evaluations on juniors Dominique Easley, Matt Elam, Sharrif Floyd and Jelani Jenkins.

Quinn coached 10 years in the NFL (2001-10), which included stints with the San Francisco 49ers, Miami Dolphins, New York Jets and Seattle Seahawks.
