LSU is #1 for NFL production for the '07 Draft. The SEC is dominating the top 10 rankings. Read the comments below some are pretty funny. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/si...04/ranking-nfl-producing-colleges-for-07.html
Just imagine if Glenn Dorsey would have decided to go to the NFL. LSU is an NFL factory. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad he stayed.:thumb:
dorsey will see his share of double teams this season (what's new?) but if he stays healthy and plays like he has, he'll be top 10 next year depending on DT depth of the '08 draft.
I think Dorsey will the #1 DE in the Draft assuming he stays healthy. Tyson Jackson will also benefit next season from the double teams on Dorsey and rack up some great stats. That is what NFL coaches love about those anchors in the middle of the line. Tyson Jackson could possible go in the top #15 if he decided to leave early. D-Line "U"LSU!
Tyson Jackson has better measurables than Dorsey, and since DE is a more coveted position, he'll probably go higher in the draft. Dorsey will still probably be the first DT taken.
Gotta' agree with 327. Sed Ellis is a contender for the top DT. If indeed DE's will be more coveted, then Lawrence Jackson will also be in the mix. USC's D will move back to a 4-3 without the elephant position meaning many of the other teams will have to give up the double teaming that hampered LoJack's stats last year. Just think about next week's draft if so many juniors hadn't jumped. LenDale White, Reggie Bush, Fred Matua, Darnell Bing, Oscar Lua. RB is the only one who's fared well. The rest are either on IR or continue to struggle. Some players are just ready to leave early but it seems the majority can almost always improve with just one more year at the college level. Can't wait for the lineup for the 2008 draft.
Why Wait?:wink: Look at this 2008 Mock Draft. LSU and USC have a ton of players in the 1st 2 rounds. 1. Raiders McFadden 4. USC OT Sam Baker 9. Dorsey 18. Doucet 19. USC DE Jackson 25. USC TE Fred Davis 30. OG Will Arnold 31. USC DT Ellis 37. USC S Pickard 38. USC RB Washington 44. Alley Broussard He has some work to do. 55. Highsmith 62. USC CB Thomas Are all of these USC players or is one from South Carolina? http://walterfootball.com/draft2008.php
