Main issue with oline recruiting in this class is it lacks depth. At the top it looks great on paper but we should be taking 5 olineman in this class and on the defensive side definitely at least 3-5.

Offensive line recruiting is definitely getting better. A lot better at that. We took 6 guys last year and have another 5 currently committed. We're still missing a great left tackle, but we now have quality depth across the board. If Rosenthal can start at LT next year and we can move Charles to RT, I think our line is going to be incredible next year.

LSU takes too many skill positions every class.
We took 15 OL/DL/LB/TE out of 22 last year. Right now, that number is 10/20. I think Orgeron is working to address the issues in this area, but unfortunately, OL and DL are developmental positions and it usually takes a couple of years for guys to start reaching their potential.

the dline was just very average with practically no pass rush capability at all. I'm not convinced Chaisson is the sole answer there you need more than 1 capable guy.

I agree. D line play and recruiting is concerning. I hope we add some quality guys in this class, because I don't understand how we can only have one actual defensive lineman, and he's an "under the radar" type at that. Still can't fathom how we missed on all the Mississippi guys.
