Terrace Marshall Jr — Wide Receiver — Junior

Terrace Marshall Jr missed three games as a sophomore, but still managed to catch 46 passes for 671 yards and 13 touchdowns (third best for LSU in 2019).

His 13 touchdowns would’ve led every SEC team except Alabama.

Those numbers are even more impressive when you consider that Marshall was competing for targets with Ja’Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson, Thaddeus Moss, Stephen Sullivan and Clyde Edwards-Helaire.

Marshall has elite size (6-foot-4) and speed, which will make him a very attractive option for NFL teams. Now that he’ll be the clear No. 2 option the passing game, he should be able to put up big numbers (as long as he stays healthy).

If Marshall, a former five-star recruit, plays in every game, and goes over 1,000-1,200 receiving yards, it’s possible that he could be a first round pick.

Even if LSU’s offense takes a step back in 2020 without Joe Burrow in town, Marshall should still be able to stand out as one of the top wide receivers in the nation.
