Solid title. But most WRs are quiet at LSU.

Bowe and them were beast

He hasn't really been a consistent target. Needs to get more physical.

The tools are there.

Hopefully he makes a JL - OBJ like jump this year. Requires a lot of work

Malachi needs to really take that next step to All-SEC at least. You're right, he's been quiet this offseason, but the few things I've read indicate he has indeed stepped up. Can't wait to see.

I hope you are correct but can't see BOTH Dupre and Dural going in the 1st/2nd. Absolutely no basis for my opinion but will speculate that Dupre will be 2nd and Dural in the 4th/5th.

If Malachi runs well, he will be a first round pick. He has size, hands, and he jumps out of the gym.

With a decent year, he'll be a 1st round pick.

Is it just me or am I the only one who hasn't seen enough from him to warrant the early departure talk? Not saying he's not a great receiver but I personally just done think he has enough tape on him to warrant leaving this season

I think he goes to NFL after this year for sure. Unless he gets hurt

I completely agree. He's good, but I haven't seen spectacular yet. Of course, I don't put all of that on Dupre because a lot is due to the offensive scheme, OL play, QB play, etc.

However, if his measureables are really good, he'll get taken based on that alone.

Def agree with this.

Actually want our entire WR group to get tougher this year, both mentally and physically. And I believe they will.

I think he's really going to fit the NFL system well with his leaping and ability to catch 50-50 balls. He made great plays plenty of times last year when BH threwith it into his vicinity and I think he saved BH many times. Hid numbers may not be gaudy in our offense but I'm sure he'll make at least a few spectacular grabs this year

I agree that he hasn't shown enough yet to be considered a potential 1st rounder. But I think he'll probably leave early anyway. He can jump, but I'm not sure he's tall, fast, or productive enough yet to be a sure-fire 1st rounder. But like I said earlier, I think he's gonna step up in a major way this year.

He'll grade high on measurables alone. He will undoubtedly be a first day pick. I would love for all the Jrs. to stay but I doubt he does.

That wasn't until his junior year. Beckham had 4 receiving TDs in his first two years, and he started both years. He was not near as known or as highly rated as Dupre has been coming into his junior year. Neither was Landry.
