Just a quick look at next year's team
The obvious underclassmen departures:
1. Grant Delpit
2. CEH
3. K'Lavon Chaisson

Seniors:
1. Joe Burrow
2. Kristian Fulton
3. Damien Lewis
4. Adrian Magee
5. Rashard Lawrence
6. Breiden Fehoko
7. Michael Divinity Jr.

Possible Early Entries:
1. Justin Jefferson
2. Jacoby Stevens
3. Jacob Phillips
4. Patrick Queen
5. Lloyd Cushenberry
6. Thad Moss

I'm hoping one our inside LB's stick around (Queen/Phillips). I also believe Cush, Deculus, and Charles return. Vincent Jr. will probably recieve a 4-6 Rd Grade and will opt to return. We could potentially lose a ton of starters this offseason.
On the brightside, the LSU staff has relentlessly hit the recruiting trails. I don't see much dropoff outside of the QB position (not a shot against MB).
Thoughts on possible departures?

Cush and Charles are probably real possibilities to leave. Not sure how much Cush can raise his grade by returning, nor am I sure where he would rank as a C coming out.

Charles is probably a risk just because one more suspension and he is done. You know compliance is going to test him 100 more times. So does he have the ability to put down the devil's lettuce to return another year?

Jefferson, Phillips, and Stevens have nothing left to prove. They could easily be gone.

Leave early to be a second or third round pick?

You make it sound like we could have half a dozen or more early departures. I hope Orgeron does as good a job as last year at talking them off the ledge. I'd hate to see what happens if we go back to Miles era numbers.

Phillips could definitely improve his draft stock

And Stevens could use a full year in the role he is playing now (they moved him around a lot earlier this year)

Plus Stevens has become a vocal leader on the defense, so I could see him coming back and wearing #18 next year

Uh yeah. That is pretty high draft picks and they aren’t jumping to the first round.

I'd imagine Jefferson goes, but I don't know why any of the rest would.

Phillips and Stevens have plenty to prove.

Jefferson should leave though.

4 are probably a given. You could easily have 2-4 more, so yeah half a dozen would probably be the O/U, and I'd take the over if I had to guess.
