Shelvin, Logan and Farrell look like they will develop into nice starters. Go look at Farrell against A&M. He was a key on many of the stops we had when they tried to run in OT.

Shelvin is strong but simply needs to get into better shape. It's why I wish we would start some of these guys earlier so they can see that they aren't ready for themselves and what kind of work it's going to take for them to make that next jump.

I'm not worried about next year. We'll be fine next year. I'm worried about the year after that. If we don't sign some real legit contributors, highly rated or not then we'll be in the exact same position as this year where we have to keep the starters out there bc the second team just isn't ready. If LSU wants to take that next step then we need to sign some real legit DLman in 2019 to go with that great class of 2020. We will also need to sign like 4 more elite type of guys in 2021.

I wouldn't stop recruiting 4 every year until we have a legit 2 man and 3 man rotation. I would also get 1 or 2 rush ends every year. I think LSU should start recruiting the DL, OL and QB position with a different aggression or a different priority then all other positions. These 3 positions can make or break any team.

LSU will have good depth in 2020 with guys like Thomas and Cotton backing up Logan and Ferrell. Much older than the backups we had this year.

The problem is, who is the NFL player among that group? I think that's a bunch of solid players and that's fine when we'll be stacked at CB and LB, but I don't know if it's good enough to beat Bama or what Georgia will have by then.

LSU has to get another 4* DL in this class for that reason. Sopsher, Young, Handy, Ika, etc.
