Can we field a great offensive line? I feel like everything else is solid to great. But man, for a guy who wanted to pound the rock, Miles did not recruit offensive linemen well.

RT - La’el Collins
RG - Trai Turner
C - Will Clapp
LG - Jerald Hawkins
LT - Andrew Whitworth

ETA: I made this list based on current players, not ALL TIME. Pocic would take Hawkins spot if he gets healthy again.

LSU has had an absolute incredible amount of quality NFL talent over the past decade. This list doesn't even count guys who have been solid players for the last decade and just got out of the league...this is just guys who are currently on rosters or IR and guys who are about to be drafted, and you could still almost fill out two teams worth of starters, and they wouldn't completely suck. As one team, that's a DEEP defense and an explosive offense.


ETA: Faneca/Mawae. Dumbass. I'm going to bed. Rest should be accurate though.

Man I never see Todd McClure on these lists dude played center for the falcons for 13 years. He only missed one start in his entire career from 2000-2012. He needs some love as a great.

Don’t forget YA Tittle. And Bert Jones. Bert Jones was a freaking beast.

Thinking of other sec teams and how they might compare. Gumps would be solid
With Starr, stabler and Namath at qb. Don Hutson and Julio Jones at wr.
John Hannah and Dwight Stephenson on o line

Miami would be freaking nuts as would usc. Too many hof guys to list.

Side note LSU’s 03 d line was insane

Sadly one freak injury ruined Ben Wilkerson’s NFL career. As a 6’ 4” 310 lbs Center, Ben was a HS All-American, #2 player out of Texas, 13th best player coming out of HS , 5 star .9944, 1st team all SEC, consensus All American, Rimington Trophy winner, National Champion on the 2003 team. Kid was an absolute BEAST.

Ruptures a tendon in his knee and goes undrafted, only playing 3 yrs in the NFL. Based on HS & CFB awards and productivity, Wilkerson is arguably the best Center in LSU history. He came back as a GA on the 2011 team. Current OL coach for the NYG
