He tried. The Seahawks weren't budging.

Our defense wouldn’t have faired any better against the Eagles. It was just their year. They had the football Gods on their side that year kind of like we did in 09.

We'd outscored them easily; they were fortunate that the schedule fell there way...

If you told we could have signed/drafted more LSU talent and come out ahead, I would say we snookered the rest of the league. Countless CB, LB, etc we could've had for less draft capital. Jamal is just the latest example from DBU.

Looks like we'll have two Tigers on the final 53 - WLB Kwon Alexander and IOL Will Clapp...

Kwon said he was recruited hard by Davis. Thank you for #56.
Not surprised at all with Clapp.

+1.

I'd make a case for the LSU WR group too. A lot of these guys are either ELITE or very good on Sundays. Odell Jr, Chark, Justin Jefferson, LaFell etc. Marshall & Chase (rookies) have the potential too. I really thought we were going to snag Jarvis Landry (2014 draft) but we chose some dude with the fancy french name . Stanley Jean Baptiste ... probably Pace's worst draft selection ever.

I'm really impressed at how a lot of the skill players (WR, CB & LB) down in Baton Rouge transition so well to the NFL.

Well, if there is any consolation, Pace is crafting his talents in Chitown. There is a God after all.

Chase had a nightmare start yesterday. Three targets and three drops.
