He was a sure fire 4th rounder (which means he would have been drafted by the end of the draft) after his 3rd year but decided to return for his senior year. Now, he most likely won't be drafted at all.

My bet is he is a 5th or 6th rounder.

Same and in terms to sticking with a team this is probably what is best for him.

This.  Picking your landing spot is much better than getting drafted into a overcrowded position room.

Normally teams don’t waste a late pick drafting someone into an overcrowded position, they expect their draft picks to have a good shot of making the roster.

I would agree with for the first 5 rounds but 6th and 7th are often seen as borderline game day roster guys due to to the obvious deficiencies in their game. It's after all why they are picked so late. Teams often "take fliers" on guys later for numerous reasons. Teams love to "add competition" to send a message or straight away plan on drafting guys who they know will probably be practice squad guys. 

In the end, having agency over where you get your first shot is an advantage over possibly being drafted into a bad situation.

    We've talked about getting back to being the toughest, most violent people out there. Let's be the best version of ourselves and really get back to the culture of how we (USF) used to step across the line and play anybody. Let's hold on to the culture of when they were tough … and they (opponents) knew it was going to be long damn day for themselves.
