Last night’s first round of the NFL Draft saw three LSU Tigers go in the first round. LSU Quarterback and Heisman winner Jayden Daniels was selected with the second overall pick to the Washington Commanders and he says that he’s all in on bringing back a winning culture to the Commanders.

Cut 13 (11) “… some fun.”

LSU Wide receiver Malik Nabers didn’t have to wait long after Daniels to hear his name called. The New York Giants selected Nabers with the 6th overall pick and LSU wide receiver Brian Thomas Junior was also selected in the first round of the draft by the Jacksonville Jaguars with the 23rd overall pick.

The Saints had only one pick in the first round last night and selected Oregon State Offensive Tackle Taliese Fuaga (Tall-ee-s-a Foo-ah-gah). The Saints needed an offensive tackle heading into the first round and selected Fuaga with the hopes that he can develop into a starter for this upcoming season. Fuaga did not give up a sack while playing at Oregon State.
