LSU has a pretty stout Defense. Loaded with a lot of hyped up Juniors. Which Juniors do you think will be returning to school next year?

Barkevious Mingo
Bennie Logan
Sam Montgomery
Kevin Minter
Larmin Barrow
Craig Loston
Eric Reid
Tharold Simon

8 of our starting 11 are Juniors

Ultimately it's up to them. Montgomery could have gone last year and been a top 10 pick. Could he do the same again this year?

I didn't realize we didn't have a single senior starting. Well depending on who starts between Downs and Johnson.

3 Freshman
1 Sophomore
8 Juniors

If you count the Nickel.

Wouldn't that be something if they all come back, Tyrann returns, and Mett improves and becomes a steady QB for 2013. I know, dreaming, but man it would be nice.

Montgomery is the only that should leave.

Mingo and Minter could leave if they want to...

The rest need to stay if they want a better draft status.

Only one gone for sure is......
Montgomery- could've gone last season but stayed. I'm thinking since he has had an ACL injury in the past, and we all know what happens when players try and come back for another year, injuries do occur and production could drop. He's a top 10 pick, he's gone.

Iffy....basically will these guys be locks for first round is the question?

Mingo- Was projected to be a top 5-10 guy, at this point he would go in the first but idk about that early. Production hasn't been there and with his size he needs that.

Reid- Hasn't played up to his potential so far, I'm not sure if he's a lock to be a first rounder at this moment. In terms of talent/potential, similar to Mingo.

Minter- probably won't be a first this year based on size, but production is there, could be interesting.

Logan- if first round, he's a goner

Will be staying IMO....

Barrow- prob a 4-6 round pick at best

Loston- prob a 5-7 round pick at best

Simon- has said he wants to be first rounder, would be a 2nd-3rd rounder this year.

This!

Plus Ware, and maybe Ford.

Guys don't have to be first rounders to consider going. Minter's stock may never be higher than it is right now. MLB's rarely go in the first round, but a good third round grade will probably be enough to make him declare. Sam goes for Logan. What you have to remember about these two guys is that they have already been here for four years.

Ware and Ford may go because of lack of touches next year. Won't be able to improve stock next year, so if they can get a third or fourth round grade, they probably will go.
