Best photos of LSU’s NFL draft prospects at Tigers pro day

The Tigers’ draft hopefuls took the field in front of NFL scouts on Wednesday.

On Wednesday, LSU’s draft hopefuls took the field at the team’s pro day in Baton Rouge looking to put on a show for the NFL scouts in attendance.

The major story on the day was [autotag]Kayshon Boutte[/autotag], who struggled at the NFL scouting combine. His pro day was highly anticipated, but he only participated in drills and not in athletic testing, meaning his subpar combine numbers — including a 4.50 40-yard dash — will stand.

In addition to Boutte, [autotag]Sevyn Banks[/autotag], [autotag]Anthony Bradford[/autotag], [autotag]Ali Gaye[/autotag] and [autotag]Jay Ward[/autotag] didn’t participate in athletic testing.

Who are LSU’s offensive and defensive players of the week following blowout loss to Auburn?

LSU may have suffered a 48-11 loss to Auburn last week, but the Tigers saw solid production from a few playmakers on both sides of the ball.

The LSU Tigers enter their open date ahead of what’s sure to be a tough home matchup, following a 48-11 loss at Auburn last weekend.

In that loss, the Tigers fell to 2-3 on the season and only totaled 32 rushing yards in the game.

Instead of taking a next step, as head coach Ed Orgeron and company were hoping he would, freshman quarterback T.J. Finley threw two interceptions in his first road start and was benched for Max Johnson in the second half.

Here’s a look into who shone on both sides of the ball in an otherwise dismal day.

Offense: QB Max Johnson

Johnson stepped in for Finley and completed 15-of-24 passes for 172 yards and a touchdown. The lone touchdown pass was a 43-yard completion to freshman wide receiver Kayshon Boutte to make the score 48-11 nearly halfway through the fourth quarter.

The Tigers’ freshman signal-caller showed signs of the future in his playing time, and could potentially give Finley a run for the back-up spot to Myles Brennan for the remainder of the season.

If Brennan isn’t able to play against Alabama on November 14, Johnson has a solid case to earn the start for the game.
