HOOVER, Ala. — Bucs fans know all about the recent stream of LSU defensive stars into the NFL.
Tampa Bay has drafted three of them in the last five years (Kwon Alexander, Kendell Beckwith and No. 5 overall pick Devin White). The Bucs looked at Tyrann Mathieu as a free agent and probably had interest in trading for Patrick Peterson, although neither move materialized.
This year’s Tigers have another standout on the way — one who’s putting up numbers unmatched by his LSU predecessors and should draw the attention of the Bucs and every other NFL team in the coming months.
