The annual LSU pro day is taking place on Friday and as expected, Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert and head coach Mike Tomlin are present for it, along with a few other members of the organization.
Several LSU players are likely to hear their names called during the 2019 NFL Draft with a few of them such as linebacker Devin White and cornerback Greedy Williams expected to be first-round selections. White is considered to be the best off-the-ball linebacker in this year’s draft class with Williams expected to be the first or second cornerback selected in the first-round.
Also draft eligible this year from LSU are defensive tackle Ed Alexander, defensive back Terrence Alexander, safety John Battle, running back Nick Brossette, offensive lineman Garrett Brumfield, fullback David Ducre, defensive back Ed Paris, tight end Jacory Washington, kicker Cole Tracy, and tight end Foster Moreau, who received some attention from the Steelers at the Senior Bowl this year.
Tackle Jerald Hawkins is currently the last former LSU player selected by the Steelers during a draft. Prior to his selection, guard Alan Faneca had been the last former LSU player drafted by the Steelers.

Part of what makes White so desirable at the NFL level is his freakish speed and ability to cover receivers and running backs.
