Lee looks like a safety to me. If he can put on 25 or 30 pounds a linebacker.
Palmer is smooth and will be hard to keep him off the field.

But it's hard to ignore Dillon. When they get him the ball the guy makes plays.
if Dillon had really good hands he would probably be our best receiver. Looks like he likes the ball to come into his body and doesn't reach out with his hands very well to make catches, and even then it is iffy. But he is very dangerous with the ball when he does catch it. But unless he has really improved his hands a great deal over the off season I just cant see him starting or even being a primary backup, We just have to many other guys who can catch the ball and while maybe not as dynamic with the ball as Dillon, are still pretty dynamic.

yes, this. We are so stacked already at WR, just seems a better path to PT would be at safety or LB. Plus he is already pretty stout and will just naturally fill out even more as his body matures.

You are missing the point. It’s not about spreading it around.
They're fielding wave after wave of receivers with fresh legs at spent DB's and LB's.

Yeah I'd love for Giles to prove us wrong, but writing has to be on the wall for him being 3rd/4th string slot in the spring game, and of course the coach saying he made a mistake to give him #7 last year. I'd grad transfer and play somewhere else he could get on the field.
I get why we took him last year as we didn't have any experienced WR's returning so it seemed like a big need at the time, but turns out he wasn't quite as good as he appeared to be at Texas Tech and those young guys have way passed him up.
Can a player transfer in and then transfer out the next season? I like the dude and all for wanting to come to LSU but things have changed.,

6 players with 20+ receptions last year.
again, I am not talking about simply spreading it around. LSU spread it around last year.
I am talking about having some sort of semblance of a cohesive offense, and not just haphazardly subbing WRs in and out for no apparent reason at all.

Dillon does have good hands.
LINK
Dillon Jefferson and Chase more or less have the same % in terms of "catch rate" which is simply "how many balls did you catch divided by the number of targets".
whats so depressing about that is that the three of them were the highest and none of them are above 60%.

What gives you the impression that the subbing is haphazard? The strategy is to exhaust the DBs and LBs with fresh legs from the offense. And, to permit the hurry-up offense to operate at full speed without exhausting the WRs, TEs, and receiving RBs.
We heard the same objections to subbing WRs at OSU before last season season started. In 2018, OSU broke their all-time passing record by about 1500 yards.

sorry if you didnt watch. Its ok. I just know that I dont need to discuss this matter with you further because you clearly didnt watch any LSU football if you are still flummoxed as to what I am referring to.

are you under some sort of impression that other teams do not have depth at LB and DB?

you don't think that had anything to do with your QB and the SOS??

And Burrow can run the Spread/RPO with the same high efficiency as Haskins. a little better in some areas - like getting the ball to the RB's - and being a legit running threat that the D has to scheme for.

dude. how can you be this dense?
this is exactly the point I was trying to make. the offense last year did not work. there was no semblance of reason for why receivers went in and out of the game. I think this year we will see a departure from that.
dear lord, I feel like I am interacting with a brick wall.

No disrespect to Palmer and Lee because I think they will play, but you might be right.

Yessir.
All I was saying, is that last year, LSU may have used a large number of receivers, but the subs/rotation didn’t make any sense.
Go back and watch a few games and just keep track of which WRs are on the field. Ask yourself, “is there a reason why (A) came out and (B) came in?”

It’s actually a good thing if they redshirt. It means that the 11(!!!) guys ahead of them are getting it done.
Posted on 4/17/19 at 7:18 am to GeauxJoeGeaux
This WR group is just sick with talent. We just have to hope that the play calling is better and Oline play is better this year. When we play bama and Auburn this year they will have great dline's all that WR talent doesn't mean shite if our qb can't get them the ball. I definitely think having a better running game this year will help. I am stoked about this season though. Our defense will be lights out and looks like this offense will be legit.

Yes they are. They'll probably get to play in the non Texas OOC games, and maybe vs Ole Miss/Arkansas/Vandy.
There are four athletic and experienced seniors, one junior that had over twice as many receptions, yards, and TDs than any other guy, 2 rising sophomores who just my be the most talented of the entire group, and guys that rarely, if ever, played yet from last year. There is no reason to believe Palmer and Lee get any passes thrown to them let alone thinking they won't get redshirted.
