Wasn’t the Godchaux or Dorsey player id hoped when he was being recruited.
But solid

You can't support this. There were zero teams who would have passed on Roy.

I actually think Godchaux is a great comp. Both were very good but not elite. Both left prematurely after 3 years. I think Roy will be a solid pro just like Godchaux. Only real difference is that it seemed like overachieving for Godchaux because he was a 3 star/low 4 star recruit. It didn't seem as impressive for Roy because he was a high 4 star recruit. Like someone else said though, Roy isn't the problem. The problem is that you need a half a dozen Roys-- especially if they're going to leave after 3 years.

He took on a lot of double teams this year and freed up others to get better stats. He played his arse off in a position that is hard to notice and doesn’t get a lot of glory. He will be a solid layer in the nFL for many years and he want get talked about a lot

Solid career, but at LSU the standard at DT is set high. He is a notch below a Drake Nevis or Bennie Logan.

And there’s not a thing wrong with having a solid career at DT. I can see him having a solid NFL career as well

I think he is at worst a 4th rounder.

I could see him coming off the board in the top 100 picks easily.

Tough crowd man. Not saying they will retire his jersey but saying a multi-year starter that will be drafted to the nfl is considered average or a disappointment is perhaps a bit out of touch. Gained more respect for him this year first just by sticking around after the turmoil and coaching change then by playing probably 80% of the snaps or more because of lack of depth.

Other posters have touched on it but a really good tackle may not put up a bunch of stats, especially if the defense is designed for them to hold their gaps and not be penetrators. I think he has pretty good measurables and if he does a good job of preparing for the combine he could be a possible 3rd rounder although likely a little lower.

I would agree that he would likely even be better next season if he stuck around but I just can’t fathom calling his career a disappointment. I also don’t think the career should be judged based on star ratings from recruiting. How did he produce while here and will he have a career in the league would be my criteria.

Bro, Orgeron didn’t rank and put stars by these dudes names. Be mad at Rivals, ESPN and 24/7.

I honestly thought he would be an AA type and dominate. He looked so good coming out of HS.

He isn’t a bust by any stretch but he wasn’t the guy I thought He would be and His legacy feels incomplete leaving this year.

Solid with steady improvement ( B ) I thought both he and Guillory were eventually going to develop into A+/- type level players when initially signed but even though I think he may have left a little potential growth on the table I'm still grateful for what he eventually provided this year.
