LSU senior DL Neil Farrell will return to school in 2020.
“Last ride baby … Gotta make my last season my best one. Let’s go get another (ring),” Farrell tweeted. A top-200 recruit in the 2016 class, Farrell isn’t the biggest returning name to LSU’s defense, but he has an argument for both most underrated and biggest breakout candidate of the veterans in 2020. Farrell has become a big factor in the run game -- with a strong PFF run-defense grade of 83.7 -- and his pass-rushing, while lagging behind, has improved every year on campus. Another step forward in that category, certainly possible when noting the uptick in his havoc numbers, would improve his NFL Draft outlook in kind.
