The NFL Season came to a close and the top priority for every NFL team is building up their roster this offseason. The next event on the calendar for NFL Front Offices is the NFL Combine which kicks off on February 24th running through March 3rd. On Thursday, the full list of NFL Combine invites were released with 8 LSU Tigers invited to the event.
On the offensive line, all four of LSU's NFL Draft entries were invited to the NFL Combine as Will Campbell, Emery Jones Jr, Miles Frazier, and Garrett Dellinger received invitations. All eyes will be on Left Tackle Will Campbell as he's being viewed as a potential Top Ten selection and could be the first Offensive Tackle to hear his name called at the Draft.
Miles Frazier was one of the biggest winners of the Reese's Senior Bowl and will look to continue his ascent up NFL Draft boards while Garrett Dellinger and Emery Jones Jr will also look to build upon what they showed at the Senior Bowl.
Mason Taylor had an incredible week at the Reese's Senior Bowl and will look to continue to build up his draft stock at the NFL Combine. The draft class is loaded at tight end and Mason Taylor is in a battle to be the presumed 3rd best Tight End in this class.
On the defensive line, both LSU edge rushers Bradyn Swinson and Sai'Vion Jones were invited to the NFL Combine. Both players have buzz as Potential Day Two selections and with a strong showing at the NFL Combine, Bradyn Swinson could hear his name called in the Second Round of the Draft.
The Tigers have one player invited in the secondary as Zy Alexander received an invite to the combine. During the East West Shrine Bowl, Zy Alexander was spotted in a walking boot during the game which may cause him to be limited at the NFL Combine.
The most notable omission from the Combine invites is Wide Receiver Kyren Lacy who will miss another Pre-Draft event. Lacy did not participate in the Reese's Senior Bowl after news broke that he was potentially involved in a fatal car accident. As Lacy continues to miss events and as legal concerns remain he may end up going from a Potential Day Two selection to an undrafted free agent.
Other LSU Tigers who weren't invited to the NFL Combine include running back Josh Williams, Linebacker Greg Penn III, and Safety Major Burns.
