What do y’all think the odds is we could return all WRs and the whole OL minus Brumfield on offense, and the whole defense minus Battle, Devin White and Greedy assuming they leave? Im not sure what the defensive line draft stock is with Lawrence and Fehoko and I realize we are still in the middle of 2018 but it’s pretty exciting to think about having that defense back and adding Chaisson and Stingley to it.

My guess on returning for senior year:

Offense
Burrow 50% (He has said he is treating his time as job training)
Everyone else who is eligible 90% they come back.

Defense
White 5%
Greedy 1%
Lawrence 25%
Fehuko 40%
Alexander 40%
Fulton 75%
Everyone else 90%

I really think the 3 DL go. I think Ed knows his window is short given his injury history so he wants to get to league ASAP. Lawrence is a stud so I think he goes in first couple rds. Fehoko seems like he would end up being a solid pro and I don’t think he can improve his stock much with another year.

I think Fulton stays unless he plays unbelievably well to finish the year.

50% on Burrow is way too high

I have seen less talented players than Cushenberry declare early for the NFL, yet Cush is getting one of the highest NFL grades on the team.

I'd have to believe barrow is smarter than that.

Surely

Greedy and White are high first round picks. They need to go.

Everyone else should stay. But I’m sure that will not happen.

He is staying. He is a late round flyer at best right now.

White


75% gone. Great player and for sure 1st rounder but he also really loves LSU and playing for O. I could see him hanging around an extra year. Wouldn’t bet on it but it wouldn’t shock me.

Greedy


Gone

Lawrence


Is the most questionable. He has a lot to gain by coming back but who knows where his head is at.

Everybody else will either come back or go undrafted.

Greedy, White, Fehoko and Rashard are all gone.

All WR's return except maybe Giles because he's not seeing the field as much as he anticipated (he won't get drafted above the 7th round but I can tell you he's probably not the happiest camper at this point.)

And any OL that starts above 10 games and plays all the way thru while we finish with 10+ wins is a goner as well IMO.

If Alexander is hurt no NFL team is going to waste a draft pick, it would have to be the free agent route which guarantees nothing.
He's better off rehabbing at LSU and coming back for sr year.

I think White and Williams are the locks to leave.

Burrow's draft stock is not much better than Etling at this point. I don't see him leaving.

This is a deep year for DL going into the 2019 draft. I think it’s very possible both Fehoko and Lawrence return.

Everyone capable of returning on offense likely will.

Burrow needs to come back but a Heisman run this year could jeopardize that

He will be a top 10 pick if he comes back

At LSU o expect every single player who is draft eligible to leave.

Anyone who stays is a surprise

I think alot of this will depend on how the rest of the season plays out. If we make the playoffs but not go to the NC game, or just one loss away from the playoffs. You may see more players stay in hopes of winning a NC. If we are 9-3 or 8-4, then i think more players leave to go chase the money.

Greedy will be gone regardless, but i could see white staying because of this reason.

If Burrow’s dad has any input on Joe’s career, then he will absolutely stay. I believe quarterbacks are the ones who benefit the most from staying as long as possible.

If all 3 jrs off the DLineman go we are in trouble upfront. With chassion returning after surgery and many guys such as logan,farrell not really proven and new guys this will be the weakest link on the team .

agreed. He's coming back.

And 5% on White and 1% on Greedy are both too high. The correct percentage should be zero - they're both gone, and they should be since they're both 1st rounders.
