At LSU Pro Day, offensive tackle Will Campbell’s arms measured 33 inches. Offensive tackles in the NFL have arms that measure 33 inches or longer. Campbell, who is expected to be a top ten pick, has said the length of his arms has been an overblown topic.
Receiver Kyren Lacy was also at Pro Day. He ran a 4.47 in the 40. Lacy was not at the NFL draft combine last month because of his involvement in a fatal crash in December. State Police have charged Lacy with felony hit and run.
At LSU spring practice, Offensive Coordinator Joe Sloan loves the depth in the wide receiver room…
Cut 19 (17) “…elite level”
