LSU LB Depth
Posted on 2/4/15 at 11:59 am

I think we'll be able to make it through this season with Beckwith at the helm, and next year I know there are some good ones coming out. What exactly does the depth of the LB's look like for the Tigers this year?

Probably. I'm not too worried. I have faith Steele can coach up some hole pluggers and we'll be able to have, at the very least, a decent year at LB

Debo finna do work

We just picked up Mouton, we have a ton of TE's and at 6'2" 235lbs, he's built like a LB.

Looking pretty thin after next year...

michael divinity and keion joiner will be hearing from O and steele for 365 days

What about Key, as well, on the Hybrid DE side? He is a little on the light side as a DE right now, and Steele tends to prefer bigger LBs than Chavis did. Wouldn't be shocked to see him get some early cross training, especially if we play with 3-4 sets on occasions. Steele has also been known to mix and match fronts.

that kid is h-back/full back all the way
he may even get some carries; he's a stud, grossly underrated

Beckwith, Louis, and Debo will most likely be the starters, with Riley and Garrett providing quality backup. Those 5 LB's will all be playmakers. And yes, it does look like Voorhies might be changing positions for depth. Teuhema will be a key weak side pass rushing DE. Would probably only be a LB in a 3-4 situation.

Yeah, he's short, small, and we don't throw to the TE so he's a candidate to be moved

Need them BOTH and at least 1-2 others. Also due to the depth chart, we will be an attractive choice for a TOP JUCO LB. O and Steele for a full recruiting cycle will make it happen.

i feel strongly about us landing joiner and divinity

Key is 6'4"-6'5" 230 lbs. He can easily add 10-15 lbs by the fall. Plus we have bigger DE's, we want him to be a pass rusher primarily. I think he will be just right. Sione will also be a good OLB-DE guy.

Mouton and Lanard Fournette can play linebacker!
Posted on 2/4/15 at 12:16 pm to HC87
It's definitely an issue going forward, but a great 2016 class, which it looks like it will be, and the position will be solid. I'd rather we didn't depend so much on a class, but it's what we are facing. Just glad we have O and Steele doing the recruiting. Brick and Chavis still here I would be freaking out.
