And obviously there's only next year's draft left to add to this. I suspect it will include...

WR - Demetrius Byrd
OL - Herman Johnson
DL - Tyson Jackson, Kirston Pittman, Marlon Favorite
LB - Darry Beckwith

Not counting any juniors.

Also, the # of high draft picks (1st and 2nd) is even more impressive.

** I'm including b/c he would have been a 1st rd if not for character concerns

Also, K Williams has really excelled in the NFL even though he was a second day pick.

behind Miami, LSU has the second longest active streak of putting players in the first round.

Miami has had at least one first rounder drafted for the past 14 years (1995-2008), while LSU has had at least one first rounder drafted for the past 5 years (2004-2008)
