In a move that should come as a surprise to absolutely nobody, Texas A&M DL Myles Garrett is turning pro.
Garrett announced on Saturday that he has elected to forgot his senior season and enter the NFL Draft.

Garrett has been a force all season for the Aggies, registering 8.5 sacks this season. He is projected as an excellent pro prospect, with Walter Football having him going to the Cleveland Browns at No. 1 overall in their mock draft.
Garrett’s decision to leave College Station for the pros is expected especially given some of the rave reviews he’s reportedly received from NFL teams. Earlier in December, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that the Browns had an astronomical grade on Garrett.

As long as you feel you’re ready for the NFL, there’s no reason to remain in school when you’re projected to be the top overall pick as is the case for Garrett.
