When you can't keep DTs for more than 3 years, you typically run into this problem. It's a nice a problem to have because it means you're an NFL factory. It's natural you're going to have years where you're extremely young when everyone leaves early.

To answer your question: NFL Draft

I'm worried too, but I shouldn't be. Ya see, I want DT's more than any other position. Personally, getting run on is the epitomy of getting beached in football and there's no other position I'd rather have players excel at.

scary to think how good teams like Miss. St. will be on the front line this year. I'm accustomed to it being us, that is looking like maulers in the preseason.

but then again, look at Micheal Brockers. He was a Red-Shirt Freshman and came out of nowhere to anchor our line not long ago. These guys (our current crop) are taking the same exact route. Our coaching staff identified their talent, signed them, red-shirted them, and are now ready to set them loose.

statistically speaking, I'd bet we are slightly better at the position than we were last year. Here's our immediate future outlook imo

may have solid senior campaigns

2015

#42 DT John Washington 6'3" 290lbs west monroe
#20 Darrion Daniels 6'3.5" 290lbs dallas


these three, as you probably know; are all at 100% LSU Tigers according to 247 sports

2016

#2 Edwin Alexander 6'2" 310 St Thomas Hammond LA

#7 Rashard Lawrence 6'4" 300 lbs Neville LA

#15 Glen Logan 6'4" 270 lbs Destrahan LA
