delete and userfy, and then bring back if he makes the NFL. "Serious consideration for the draft" is not the threshold of notability for college football players. The coverage I have found seems to be a few local news mentions and blog discussions, but that's not enough to pass
WP:GNG or any other notability measure I can think of. He's probably going to get drafted, he's probably going to play in the NFL, and then he would be a clear pass for notability at that point... but that's two "probably" hurdles which means he hasn't done that yet and no subject achieves notability for what they haven't done yet. If significant sources can be found for his current achievements (such as his college career) I'd be willing to change my position, but I was unable to find that level of coverage. Other editors may be successful at that.--

Delete even getting drafted into the NFL does not make notability. I still think it is ludicrous that playing in one NFL game gives notability, but the fact of the matter is that NFL teams cut many men from their roasters before the first game.
