I see comparison's being made in other threads between the Honey Badger and Mo Claiborne. It's a fun topic to discuss. This team is loaded in many areas, on both sides of the ball. So, if you were starting an NFL team, and with your first pick in the draft, you had to take an LSU Tiger (offense or defense), who would you select?
on offense, i'd go with Mett (franchise QB if he lives up to it) Hilliard (going to be a great big back) or Randle (Big possession WR) Defense: You honestly couldn't go wrong.
The most important two positions in football are qb and defensive end. You said pick a tiger. I don't know what mett can do for sure. I wouldn't pick lee or jj. Big Sam can win you football games. He will get better. He can play the run. He can rush the passer. He makes plays. He's the one I would pick. Mo would be second. Tm is a great college player but I have my doubts about the NFL. His lack of height would put him at a great disadvantage on the fade in the endzone. Drew brees and colston would expose him.
Mo fa sho. His progression has been unreal the last couple of years. He's got the potential to grow into a shut down corner at the next level. The size and skills are there.
No way, start in the middle and work your way out IMO. If you can't stop the run, a pass rush is irrelevant.
