  Draft Scout by Conference









  North Carolina coach Mack Brown tried to bring clarity on Sam Howell's future, where there's still some confusion, while speaking Wednesday about the Tar Heels' invitation to the Duke's Mayo Bowl in Charlotte. Howell, a junior quarterback, will be playing in the game against South Carolina on Dec. 30 in Bank of America Stadium. What is still somewhat unclear is if it will be the last game in a UNC uniform for Howell before he embarks on an NFL career. "I'm really excited about Sam Howell playing and all he's accomplished and what he's done," Brown said. "This could be his last game. He hasn't told us for sure yet." That's the part that has some Carolina fans wondering if Howell is open to the possibility of returning for his senior season.

He participated in Senior Day activities during the Heels' win over Wofford 34-14 on Nov. 20. But even that week before the game, Howell said he hadn't made a decision about his future. His reasoning for being involved with Senior Day was because he will complete his undergraduate degree this semester. Brown is still proceeding as if Howell is going to leave. Brown has been saying since last season that Howell would leave for the NFL after this season because his draft stock is so high. "He's going to be a first-round draft choice in my estimation," Brown said. "His family is getting information just like all the other guys to make that decision. Normally, we've told our guys if you're a first-rounder, go, but he doesn't want to be a distraction for the team." - Raleigh News Observer
