re: So does LSU get 3 into the 1st round of NFL draft???

I haven't heard his name mentioned as a potential overall #1 pick since the end of 2016. He had baggage coming in to this combine...now he just compounded it.

Key hurt himself more than anyone else has in this draft.

not that he hurt himself more at the combine than anyone else.

There's a good chance we have zero actually.

Orlando Brown might be lucky to be drafted what are you talking about?

Do the Saints want him

If key doesn't get taken by the time the Saints are picking in round one and they pass on him with the glaring need for a pass rusher opposite Cam Jordan it's gonna be hard to not be quite livid. The guy was a sure top 15 pick since this injury plagued year where his weight and motivation came into question, but the fact is when he's 100 percent and in an NFL nutrition and lifting program, Key is going to end up having double digit sack potential year after year and really doesn't need much time to be at that level. I see at most a couple years learning the pro game and speed of it all and then blowing up into one of the premier pass rushers in the entire game. I still say he's worthy of the grade given to a first round talent and should be taken far before the Saints could get him, but it looks like the chance he is there will be a reality and sadly I think the front office might see him as a player they can wait on or have a need higher up on the board than a pure stand up rusher, most likely a more complete linebacker prospect that could play multiple positions and can do more than Key can in total...but it's a mistake to let him get by. I'd be open to trading back into either the first or second round to aquire him if we go another way with 27, but please of all the LSU guys who could've been in the black and gold, none made more sense than to get Key and not look back.

Because he got up to 270 pounds within a couple months knowing that he could be a top 5 pick, knowing he was going into his Junior year. He was horribly out of shape.

In fairness to key, he was bulking up in the offseason prior to his junior year and got up to 260 solid arse muscle (I recall him tweeting about it) before his "issues" popped up. This whole "key ballooned up to 270" thing is way overblown.
