Following an impressive junior campaign capped by a 9-111-1 day in the Sugar Bowl blowout win, Florida tight end Aaron Hernandez is likely to seriously weigh whether he'll enter the NFL Draft or return for his senior season.

With a whole bunch of losses on offense and defense in Gainesville next season, there may be a little reloading taking place. And now may be the time for Hernandez to move on as it's hard to see him improving his draft stock in 2010.

Aaron Hernandez - TE - Gators

University of Florida strength coach Mickey Marotti tells The Orlando Sentinel that 8-10 Gators have likely submitted their names for NFL draft status evaluation. The paper speculates that tight end Aaron Hernandez and running back Chris Rainey are in this group.

With Tim Tebow's departure we're already looking at a new era in Gainesville, and the losses of Hernandez and Rainey will lead to a more expedited youth movement...rather, changing of the guard.
