If they were of equal value than what would be the point of wanting them other than the fact that they're LSU players. Even the better value thing is stupid. Reid has hardly been better than Vaccaro who by the way graded out in the green last season according to PFF while Reid didn't. Not to mention Reid has had several concussions already.
And there were many teams that passed on players like Landry because they didn't know how good he was going to be. This is where the whole hindsight is 20/20 comes in.
You just want these players just because they played for LSU even though only a few of them could actually contribute significantly.

LSU has the most players in the NFL. Whenever a player especially from Louisiana goes to LSU and then say go to the Saints they are playing for more than what they may be elsewhere. LSU, Saints, and Louisiana are very prideful (probably more so than anywhere else) and I think it should be taken advantage of. I still hope Mathieu returns to the Saints one day. But until then all out on Fournette in 2017.
