LSU'S 2021 VETERAN TIGERS OPT OUT FOR THE TEXAS BOWL: WHO'S LEFT & WHO'S NEXT?

Yesterday, LSU's 6th year senior defensive tackle Neil Farrell Jr opted out of his final appearance for the Tigers, beginning his NFL Draft preparations on the West Coast. Farrell Jr ends his career topping all defensive tackles nationally, according to 2021's performance grading from Pro Football Focus.

I am told there are a few players who will also be joining him in California with LSU appointed NFL trainers:


Linebacker Damone Clark should be no surprise, joining him as the nation's leading tackler at 135; Regardless of the manner in which he was shortchanged by the awards committees, Clark should be the first LB selected in the 2022 NFL Draft.

Also, running back Ty Davis-Price I'm hearing will be joining the other two on their trip to California for NFL Draft preparations, though we're waiting on official confirmation from these players & their families.

At the moment, I don't have any sources or information on whether CB Cordale Flott will also declare for the NFL Draft, as is largely expected, although the second we get confirmation, we'll be posting that here.

Each player is a 2019 National Champion, finishing off their fantastic Tiger careers in the best manner possible.


I'm in contact with a few other Tigers who are mulling their options over the next few days, wondering whether another season would be worth it, or not.....I can give you a few hints and clues, although you could probably guess most of their names....however, there's two of these players who's move to the NFL would be a major shock.
