He has looked really good so far this year, maybe it's because he is playing in the slot more but he has shut his man down and has played the run well. I hope the rest of the corners can play the same.

Tre white for some reason is the most underrated player for LSU for a while now. The magazines never gave him first team and he rarely gets mentioned in the national spotlight. Even his draft stock always seems low.

He's playing lights out. Waiting for everyone to play to his level

He looks better because when he was on the outside other teams wouldn't throw his way at all. Now that he's in the slot, you notice him more and he's done well. He's gonna make some big time money with Aranda highlighting his coverage skills in the slot.

He has definitely played his way into consideration for a 1st-2nder. The only knock is he hasn't gotten much pub before this year.if he was a physical freak like PP7 or KT2 he would be a top 15 pick

He probably would've gone at least 2nd round last year

See I never saw him as overrated. He was OK his first 3 years, but he was also beat a lot. This year he is playing like a 1st round corner and will likely be 1st or 2nd off the board at CB.

Cover corners and pass rushers get drafted high. He will go first round

He really wasn't beat a lot.

The zone was beaten a bunch last year, but he's always been a stud in man coverage. He's got incredible feet and hips which allows him to stay with anyone.

Considering Trae Waynes was a first rounder, I'd say Toliver is playing like one too.

The only knock on him has been that he struggles with the bigger wide receivers. He's always been a great cover guy, but there's only so much you can do when a ball is thrown high and the other guy has 4 or 5 inches on you.

I agree though, he has been lights out this year. He had a honey badger-esque first two games.

You do realize that Tre White has had the lowest burn rate in the country the past 2 years, right? And his burn rate from last season was 1 of the lowest scouts have ever seen.

I said the same thing last night. He's been on fire. Glad he came back.

Serious question: has he allowed any catches in man coverage this year? I don't remember any time his man has made a catch

He played as well last year. It's amazing what good dline play will do for a corner's reputation.
