L.C. and L.F. - This of the team that put 18 into NFL last two years... USA Today sux anyway. I know we're young this year, but who else should be on this list from LSU? Who from LSU will be on this list in December?

Fournette being on there is a joke. He's a true freshman. He's not near all-american status in college football before ever playing a snap.

He would probably be a first or second round draft pick if he could declare right now, pretty sure he is Top 100 material.

Why do you care what USA today says? Odds are that they discussed what each selection would do to boost their distribution.

The draft is 200+ players. We had 5 in the top 100 this year.

Only if they're drafted in the top two rounds. Remember this is a top 100, and some of those won't be draft eligible, like Nick Marshal and Jameis Winston weren't this past year.

Agreed, Danielle Hunter and Rasco set for Break Out Years. Going to be the best LB corp LSU has had in a long time. The DB's are going to be back to usual standard and all of that will allow them to pin their proverbial ears back and go for those pass happy SEC QB's.

no, i'm really not. this is akin to the argument that a college team could beat a bad nfl team. i don't care how talented fournette is, no nfl gm who cares about his job would ever draft an unproven 18 year old kid. y'all seriously need to chill out with the expectations. you're setting yourself up for a huge meltdown if he doesn't end up being barry sanders

Tredavious and Rashard both need to be on that list.

lsfball19... I couldn't agree more. There is no way you can say a player who has never played is one of the top 100 players. Now, at the end of the year... It may be a different story, but the reality is that a running back cannot have much effect on the outcome of the game. It's all about passing, blocking and receiving...then running back skills after that so even if LF is as good as advertised, and I think he will be, it just doesn't impact a game that much any longer.
