LSU five-star freshman cornerback DJ Picket checked in at No. 8 on ESPN's Top 10 list of freshmen to watch for the upcoming season.
quote:
8. D.J. Pickett, CB, LSU: Previously ranked as ESPN's No. 1 athlete in the 2025 class, Pickett joins the Tigers as the program's highest-ranked cornerback recruit since coach Brian Kelly arrived in 2021. Pickett's combination size and speed at 6-4, 190 pounds should make him a versatile option for LSU defensive coordinator Blake Baker, and the Tigers' lack of experienced cornerback talent behind projected starters Ashton Stamps and Mansoor Delane means Pickett will have an opportunity to compete for snaps on day one.
If you are wondering who No. 1 on the list is, it's Michigan quarterback Bryce Underwood.

Im not sold on Underwood. Strikes me as Terrell Pryor 2.0. Big, fast, and athletic but an average passer. He could improve in that area for sure, but we will see.
