I saw this and figured that all the LSU players going pro now are just trying to capitalize on the fact the team won the national title and people might give them a second look.
For Mauck, it makes sense. Why come back to college and play another year when its extremely unlikely that LSU will repeat. Someone on ESPN made a good point that Saban should've left while the going was good. That LSU roster is full of local kids, really. Its not a program that recruits nationally and probably never will be, even after winning a national title.
Anyway, you all pretty said it best. It seems like a smart move, even if he's a low round pick.
