Rosenthal will be on the OL for LSU, with certainty


It would seem that his measurables say OT and that's what a lot of posters want and believe. But hasn't it been said often on here that he wants to play DE? In fact, wasn't it said that one reason he eliminated Alabama was that they insisted on OT? So, if that's what he wants, then it would seem likely he would start at DE and not move unless/until he sees for himself that he would be better off on the other side.

For whatever it's worth, I think he would be a better fit at OT and better off there as well. Those are premium positions of need and through tickets to the NFL; DE not as much.

You are correct. The coaches will give him a fair chance to make it at his position of choice.

There is a certain amount of waxing and waning going on. Overall, I think tackle is going to be your best "guaranteed" pay position after QB, very close with elite pass rushers.

But I was surprised to see how many LBs and WRs are at the very top of the non-QB salary list the past couple of seasons - considering how undervalued those players are from a rank-and-file/depth standpoint.
