On3 imageby: Shea Dixon04/25/26sheadixon

After the first three rounds of the 2026 NFL Draft, former LSU Football players still on the board include quarterback Garrett Nussmeier and linebacker Harold Perkins.

On Thursday’s opening to the draft, LSU cornerback Mansoor Delane was selected by the Kansas City Chiefs as the No. 6 overall pick in Round 1.

Delane became the fourth LSU cornerback in program history to be selected in the Top 10 of the NFL Draft, and as expected, the All-American for the Tigers was the first cornerback off the board.

In Friday’s Round 2, no former LSU players were selected. However, by night’s end in Pittsburgh, multiple Tigers heard their names called as two more Tigers came off the board in Round 3.

First, safety A.J. Haulcy to the Indianapolis Colts with the No. 78 overall pick. Then, wide receiver Zavion Thomas to the Chicago Bears with the No. 89 overall pick.

Friday’s second and third rounds covered picks No. 33 to No. 100.

How many former LSU players will be drafted in Rounds 4-7 as the draft concludes on Saturday?

New Orleans Saints draft an LSU Tiger!

It does not happen often for fans of the Bayou State’s two teams, but in Round 6 of the NFL Draft, the New Orleans Saints continued to stockpile wide receivers by drafting LSU’s Barion Brown with the No. 190 overall pick. Brown, who spent multiple seasons at Kentucky before transferring to LSU in 2025, is staying in The Boot as he begins his NFL career.

With double-digit draft eligible LSU players still on the board to start Round 6 of the NFL Draft, including quarterback Garrett Nussmeier and linebacker Harold Perkins, the fourth Tiger to come off the board is a surprising selection in transfer tight end Bauer Sharp, who started his college career as a quarterback at Southeastern before transferring to Oklahoma, converting to tight end, then transferring to LSU to wrap up his college career. Now, he’s headed to the Tampa Bay Bucs with the team’s first selection in Round 6.

LSU falls flat in Rounds 4 and 5

04/25/2026 03:16:08 PM

After having a Top 10 pick in Mansoor Delane and a pair of third rounders in A.J. Haulcy and Zavion Thomas, the Tigers had no players selected in Round 4 or Round 5 of Saturday’s NFL Draft. It also marked just the second time in the past 25 drafts when LSU has not had a Louisiana high school signee be selected in the first five rounds.

LSU wide receiver and former John Ehret star Zavion Thomas is headed to Chicago. The Bears picked the Louisiana native in Round 3 with the No. 89 overall pick of the 2026 NFL Draft. Thomas, who began his college career at Mississippi State before transferring to LSU, is also one of the best return specialists in the SEC.

LSU DBs go 1-2 with Haulcy to Colts

The Indianapolis Colts selected LSU safety AJ Haulcy with the No. 78 overall pick in the NFL Draft. The Tigers didn’t have a second round pick, but Haulcy became the next domino to drop after Delane – making the first two picks off the board for the Tigers both defensive backs for LSU cornerbacks coach Corey Raymond and safeties coach Jake Olsen.
