I updated just off of LSU's list of NFL players. I'm sure we've had other kids go out of state to TX, MS, AL, or FL and get to the pros. Center was the only spot where I couldn't come up with anyone. At safety we could also have Ryan Clark, LaRon Landry, or Tyrann Mathieu. CB we could also have Morris Claiborne. Another DL possibility is Bennie Logan. I can't believe how much of our DL talent is from out of state, but I'm thinking LA players that made it had to have gone to school elsewhere.

At RB, you could also slide in Stevan Ridley or Jeremy Hill if he pans out. At WR, Jarvis Landry and OBJ in if they do well. Donnie Jones at P and Trindon Holliday at KR/PR.
