DE-Lewis Neal: our most productive pass rusher a year ago.Smart, High-effort player with a good motor.
DT- Christian LaCouture: has been a pretty effective, reliable starter the past few years. Seems to be a leader.
DT-Davon Godchaux: Disruptive interior lineman.6 sacks this year(I think). One of the most underrated Defensive lineman in the SEC.
DE- Arden Key: the young long limbed pass rusher looks to continue a fabulous start to a career for the Tigers. Tons of potential.
SLB- Lamar Louis: been here for a while. I always felt he was pretty average. Never really a game changer compared to the stud lbs that resides around him.
MLB-Kendell Beckwith: backbone of our defense. One of the top Inside line backers in all of the land.
WLB-Deion Jones: a breakout year for the senior. Really upped his draft stock. I see a poor man's Kwon Alexander.
CB- Tre' White: Has arguably been our top corner since his freshman year. Leader, and even though he had a bit of a down year, I have no doubt he will be successful in the NFL.
FS- Rickey Jefferson: He has his highs, but he has his lows, too. I see potential with him, great athlete, big hitter. Still fairly new to DB.
SS-Jamal Adams: At least a top 3 Safety in America. Plays with a ton of passion, great instincts, range, and tackling ability.
CB- Kevin Tolliver: another stud corner out of SoFlo. Had a great freshman year, and will have a wonderful career.
Nickel- Jalen Mills: seems like he's been here forever. Solid Playmaker. He's been making plays since 2012, I believe. He can play in the NFL. 3rd round.

I'm may be missing some, and I could be wrong, but I'm probably not. I wonder how our new starters do..??????

We will miss Debo's speed, the dude could fly for an LB. Safety spot will fill in nicely.

I don't. He shut down anybody he covered before the injury. QB's were barely attempting throws to his side

People are putting the down year of all our DBs because of Steele on White.

I actually like it when they used Donte at Corner and White at Safety in the Bowl game...Might see more of that, and White in the Mills role, at least some...

It seemed to me this past season that two LSU DBs were targeted over and over: Mills and Thomas. Mills is gone. And with White returning, I am hoping Thomas' snaps are limited (although his struggles could have been not being completely healed).

Where is the analysis? You just listed out perceived strengths of each player.

Not quite sure on consensus of Beckwith. I think he has good athleticism but did not play great this year at mlb.

He was on the Butkus watch list. I don't think he had a break out year, but he was solid.

Who is going to start with Beckwith? Duke is a special teamer only. I still do not know what is up with Feist. I would like to see Thompson moved to LB.

Duke is going to replace Jones nicely. Most will be surprised like they were with Jones this year but I won't. Thompson will take over Louis' lb spot. That'll be a good group.
