If he has a good year he'll be a 1st rounder for sure. He doesn't even need to put up huge numbers he just needs to show his potential.

8 LSU players and 40 SEC players in the top 100 if I'm reading it right

Pretty unbelievable considering last season was a "down year" for LSU and for the SEC

List is invalid if Fournette isn't #1 (I bet it's Deshaun Watson).

Darnit, thought he was going to be better. Guess not anymore, we are doomed.

There aren't. But when you rank #167 in receptions per game and and #118 in total receiving yards, you tend to get overlooked.

That's not Dupree's fault at all. To me, he has the potential to be the next AJ Green. However, as we know, LSU doesn't put any real emphasis on the passing game. He might be an all american on most other power conf teams (I think he could be that good). Unfortunately, that's just not the case here. The good news for him is that NFL scouts recognize his potential regardless of his relative lack of production.

Geez, at least edit the title to say top 100. Give us a little mystery.

He is only as good as his qb will be.

Dupre was the leading receiver by a good margin last year, even before the Dural injury. No way there will be two LSU receivers in the top 100

There aren't. However, there are at least 98 doofuses who don't know a trancsendental talent when they see it. I'm always knighting for Dupre, but I'll say it again: He'll be a top 10 pick, probably higher.

Not really.

Before Dural was injured

Dupre 39 rec 602 yards 6 TDs
Dural 28 rec 533 yards 3 TDs

If this is the same list from yesterday, they have Dural ranked a few spots ahead of Dupre.

IMO, yes the QB needs to improve greatly from last year, but so do the WRs. I watched the Texas Tech game again last week, and it was embarrassing the amount of passes dropped that hit receivers right in the hands. On 5 of Harris's 9 incompletions, 4 of them hit WRs right in the basket and another was close that the receiver hand both hands on it. Harris threw another away. For the amount of passes Harris threw (20) that is an insane amount of drops and worse when nearly all of them were right on target. This happened plenty throughout the season as well.

All the WRs still need to improve on route running, catching, and aggressiveness, but the talent is definitely there.

They listed Dupre 8th at LSU.

I would have to think LF, Adams, Beckwith, White, Key, Godchaux, Pocic are the other seven ahead of him.
