are we looking at any of these WRs to play other positions or are we looking to take 5-6?

Keep in mind we haven't offered Sims...the remaining 3 have an offer though. I don't know what's going on with the Sims situation. Maybe Les and Co. want to see him in person....he didn't show up for junior day last week

Quinn, Dupre, and Sims are 100% WR. I guess Noil could play DB, but he's electrifying with the ball.

Doesn't seem to have much wiggle after the catch but could be a decent possession receiver with his height.

I think we can take as many as 5 WRs, but I see us only taking 4. The coaches want to see Sims run before extending an offer. They can't just throw out a bunch of offers to Louisiana kids like OOS schools can, they have to play their board a little closer to the vest in state so they don't burn relationships. OOS schools don't have to do that. They can throw out an offer and then slow play a kid if he doesn't commit right away and they find someone else.

Other than LSU will implode and cease to exist if they don't offer Cameron Sims......no. But if he has an offer....a legit offer, the staff likes him more than Sims.

i didn't watch all of it but he doesn't have that explosive speed that jumps out at you. maybe he could be a h-back/tightend if he gained 40 lbs.

This kid is not Adrian Peterson good. Anyone who says that is an idiot. He is Eddie George good though.

He was trying to make a funny "dig" at me because I don't think Fournette should be held to such high comparisons. hilarious, wasn't it?

I think we need to be clear if comparisions are to current stars when they were in HS vs what they became. AD was a 5* top 5 recruit in HS like LF, if Fournette's size, speed and tape is similar, then I don't think those comparisons are unfair, as long as people realize that does not mean he will automatically become OU AD, let alone the 2012 NFL AD.
