3. LSU: The Tigers are taking a sizable draft hit (Leonard Fournette, Jamal Adams, Davon Godchaux have declared so far) and will face a grueling second-half schedule in 2017. Ed Orgeron will boast plenty of talent in his first season as the Tigers' full-time head coach, including future NFL stars Arden Key and Derrius Guice, but they had better develop some serious depth this offseason because most teams would be out of gas by mid-November against the schedule the Tigers must play. -- David Ching
