I love the enthusiasm of Tiger Fans, but a little perspective is needed:

Kyle Williams = 5th Round to Bills, and Kyle used to blow shite up in the center of the line all the time, Bennie not so much this past season.

Chad Lavalais = 5th Round to Falcons, and Chad was a badass his senior year, Bennie while solid is/was not that type of badass.

RJF = 7th Round to 49ers, and when he played he was a disruptive force.

Love Bennie and his play at LSU, but he is not a 3rd or 4th round selection IMHO, late round is more probable.

As for Simon, he is not NFL ready at this stage in his development.

Both need another year at the college level, do they stay - I don't know, but I think it would be wise for each to return for their Senior season.

You are so wrong. Players get drafted based on potential. I would take a bet for any amount of money if Logan comes out that he gets drafted by the end of the 4th round.

This is painfully wrong.

He was a "tweener", didnt have a for sure NFL DT position at the time. Undersized to be a 1, too slow to be a 3.

RJF = 7th Round

He really didnt play all that much. Made big plays, but this was no shocker come draft day.

Kyle Williams and Chad Lavalais were drafted in the late rounds because of their size.

Logan has much better size for an NFL DT.
