NFL talent on the offense - upperclassmen only . . .

Ciron, Lafell, Scott, Williams, arguably Trindon. Definitely Richard Dickson.
Problem is that Dickson gets about 1 ball per game. He is PROVEN and will catch that 7-12 yard pass to pick up nice yardage.
I don't agree with Coach Miles philosophy of letting the older guys play while the younger guys watch, when they could probably be contributing but at least I understand that. What I don't understand is why doesn't Dickson get 5-7 balls thrown his way per game. It's an easy throw, not too risky and he'll usually make the grab. My fear is that 2-3 years from now we're going to be watching Dickson on Sunday afternoon make 3-4 catches per game and wish we had used him while we had him. Geaux Tigers!

which older guys on offense do you want to bench? Blackwell for Hitt? take Lafell out and put in Rueban Randell maybe? just curious who you had in mind when you said that.

Why only count seniors? How about JRs since they are techinically upperclassmen?
Then you have Barksdale and Toliver. Both have definite NFL talent.
When Ciron, our supposed best OL and a potential 1st round pick can't block anyone, what can you expect from the other guys?

We always overestimate our NFL talent and then the draft rolls around and we realize how NFL ready some of these guys are.
Right now, Lafell and Ciron are the only two who get drafted at all. Ciron in the middle rounds now because of lack of production. Scott maybe in the late rounds.
