K’Lavon is the next closest thing but still not really close. He will be missed

Chaisson certainly has a way to go, but in limited action behind Key he has 19 tackles, 3.5 TFLs and 2.0 sacks. That's not bad from a backup role.

Here's the amazing thing about Chaisson:

Chaisson was also named to the Texas AP Class 6A All-State team after a season in which he registered 50 tackles, including 13 for loss, to go along with state-leading 15.5 sacks and three forced fumbles.

Earlier this spring, he was invited to Nike’s “The Opening” Finals, a star-studded camp featuring more than 150 of the players in the country, in Beaverton, Ore., where he’ll compete against other outstanding talents that have been playing football way longer than he has.

The scary part is that after one year of football, there’s a lot talent that remains untapped.

If you remember he went to camp with friend Eric Monroe and Aranda spotted him running drills for fun and LSU offered him on the spot. He wasn't even on his HS team and in 1 year became the #4 WDE in the country. This kid is raw, but special.
