re: Will LSU's streak of 1st round draft picks end this year?

Probably but that doesn't mean he'll be the first one taken. Bryant could look bad in the combine compared to Lafell.

I really don't think Lafell's hands are going to hurt him that bad because hes so polished in other areas of his game. Like I said...one of the biggest reasons for WR busts in the NFL, starts with route-running. I don't think anyone can argue Lafell is the best route-running in this class.

Coaches are stubborn like that, they see something that only is natural...they fall in love with it. If its something that can be coached(concentration with hands) they always think they can...its why so many players turn out to be busts.

I'd say Lafell's major concern right now outside his hands is his breakaway speed. If he runs a upper 4.4, first-rounder, IMO. I think hes going to surprise people with his quickness in the combine.

lafell and hopefully mr jones gets in

Ciron should

no he shouldn't. He's gonna get exposed at the combine because his knees are so awful. I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't make it out of training camp.

Lafell is all but a first round lock. Hands are pretty far down on the list of qualities nfl coaches worry about. Bowe had way worse hands.

I say Lafell and Black

BL will be a 1st rounder, depending on how bad his injury is.

Good left tackles are very hard to come bye, look for C. Black to be a late first round pick

---

he may not measure up, literally

Lafell for sure and Black probably. Everyone saying that Ciron won't because of his "bad season" doesn't know what they're talking about. OLmen are graded more on technique, skill, size, ect. Not what kind of "good" or "bad" season they had. The guy was the best of our OL all season and when he doofus next to him misses assignments he suffers for it.
