Tommy Casanova. I am too young to have seen him play but his daughter is pretty cute so he gets my vote

TM7 is the best player I've seen, but I'm not sure if he's the most "talented." His instincts and football IQ are both insane, off-the-charts, ridiculous, whatever, but does the classify as talent?

He also has great physical gifts like hands, agility, quickness. He's probably the best overall I've seen.

To this day, no one has impressed me more than Kevin Faulk, but Cory Webster, Tyrann Mathieu, Pat Peterson, and now Leonard Fournette have all come close. I'm probably going to say Fournette when all is said and done, though.

Tyrann gets my vote. Or Jamarcus.

Patrick Peterson and Leonard fournette are right there.

Tyrann just did things on a football field that were unreal.

Mathieu is the greatest. Hands down. If he played 4 years he would be hands down the Goat of all cfb.

Hilliard and Alexander do not get nearly enough credit for the talents that they were. They were both amazing players. Fournette is probably the best though. We’ll know for sure after this year.

Tyrann Mathieu. Nobody took over games from the defensive position and ST like he could.

pure talent....honey badger

He did things I've never seen ANYONE do, at any size.

Jamarcus was a beast, from a physical talent perspective. Probably in the top 3 strongest arms to ever play football. I still remember the first throw I saw him make. Cbs put it in slow motion and it still looked like a normal throw.

if I hear one more time about Cecil Collins and his 5 games against garbage opponents I'm going to jump off a cliff

No doubt in my mind. I hated that he/we missed out on two more years...but now I'm just glad I got to see him at lsu for the 2 years he was here. We were blessed.

I don't see any way you can put Casanova over Cannon though.

Billy cannon scored the go ahead touchdown with 10 minutes left and stopped ole miss from scorning the game winning touchdown later in the game.

Billy cannon has the most fantasy points in a football game.

Lots of arguments for billy cannon most talented of any program

If NFL production matters, we have to go with Y.A. I can’t think of another Tiger that was a four time NFL MVP.
