It’s fair to wonder why top flight WR talent continues to flock into Baton Rouge. Odell Beckham Jr. and Jarvis Landry aside, it’s hard to stack up the numbers of LSU WRs in the past 15 years and think excellence. Even players that were strong contributors at LSU, like Brandon LaFell, Rueben Randle and DJ Chark, when compared to nationally elite players at the position, look like no. 2 and no. 3 WRs, not the team’s leading target. Many of these players wind up drafted, and most of them were highly ranked HS prospects, but in the in-between they are just kinda.
