| Clemson DE Merling to turn pro Clemson, SC (Sports Network) - Clemson defensive end Phillip Merling will forgo his senior season to enter the National Football League draft. Merling had 78 tackles in 2007 and led the Tigers in tackles for loss with 17 and quarterback sacks with seven, helping Clemson to a top 10 national ranking in scoring defense and total defense. "We wish Phillip the best in his pursuit of a National Football League career," said Clemson head coach Tommy Bowden. "He has the ability to be successful in his professional career. I advised him to remain for his senior year, but he felt this was the best decision for his future. I will help him any way I can as he prepares for the draft." Merling joins running back James Davis as Clemson juniors who will enter the NFL draft. Yet another RB declairing. timesunion.com : sports
