247 just rated him an 88

I wouldn't worry too much about where guys are rated right now. Lots of players are still under the radar. We're a full year out. They often gloss over players until they get a major offer and LSU is Alexander's first so they probably haven't given him more than a cursory look to this point.

I know the general consensus was 2 (or maybe 3) linebackers, but what's the feeling on how many overall?

We're going to take a full class of 25. I'm guessing we're still taking only 2 or 3 LBs. Probably limited numbers on the DL as well.

My guesses are:
1 QB
2 RB
1 FB possibly
2 TE
4 WR
4 OL
4 DL
2 LB
5 DB

If we don't take a fullback, that adds a spot somewhere else.

ETA: I just signed up on TexAgs to post on their recruiting forum. Anything I should be warned about?

I'm thinking we only take 2-3 DL since we got so many last year plus the possibility of Beckwith and Melvin moving to the line

I agree with those numbers. I don't think LSU will take a fullback but maybe convert a DT

This class is going to be nasty good..... Rivals ranking 6

like any forum, there are a lot of people that will take offense at anything you say simply because you went to a different school. But honestly that forum is pretty dead. I also think you need a certain number of posts before you can post there but am not sure.

It's sad that would be 6th. But you are correct. They will find a way to drop us from 2nd to 6th.

This is a prototypical Chavis type of LB: slightly undersized, extremely athletic, technically sound and very versatile.
