The other 5 are probably in jail or suspended by the NFL. And you cant really count these from this year...............could be a total flame out.

None are in jail, but I can think of a couple that should be.

This could be said for every player that was drafted this year, right?

I think it is too funny that LSU fans still say shite like this after their basketball coach was caught on tape trying to pay a player. Really displays the delusion that is so prevalent around here.

Since 2000, LSU has actually done the best job at getting players to the NFL by position. This is from 2 years ago, so some things may have changed.
QBU LSU 7
RBU LSU 13
WRU LSU 16
OLU Alabama 17
DLU LSU 22
LBU Georgia 19
DBU LSU 20

Not a bust at all in terms of on the field performance. He flamed out of the NFL due to off the field issues. That can be considered a "bust" though since the net result is the same.

He did well in Dallas and would likely still be a Cowboy if not for the off the field drama that he never seemed to escape.

Well, they aren't getting quite the "rookie minimum" but they're doing alright.

Going back further 2008 Bama beat Clemson 34-10, different circumstances (regular season) but all the early Saban NFL guys were on that squad.

The number of Bama players there that never lost to LSU is pretty amazing.
