*JaMarr Chase, LSU, Player News

Ja'Marr Chase being picked to the Cincinnati Bengals at No. 5 wasn't exactly a surprise, but a text from the LSU star's former quarterback offered a bit of hint. "Get your bags packed," Burrow texted his former teammate before the draft, as relayed by Ch ase after his selection. It only took Chase a few words to get to his excitement about the reunion as he spoke to ESPN's Suzy Kolber on stage. "It's a blessing coming true, being out here with my family, you know, especially having this great experience, " Chase said. "But for the most part I can't wait to get to work with Joe...I'm ready to work."The biggest roadblock to the reunion was likely the Atlanta Falcons at No. 4. When Atlanta picked Florida tight end Kyle Pitts at that slot, the crowd a t Chase's watch party in New Orleans cheered, according to a report from NOLA.com's Rod Walker. The pick marked the first time since 2007 the same team picked LSU players in the first round of back-to-back drafts. - Baton Rouge Advocate

Star LSU wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase will attend the NFL draft in person in Cleveland, which means the highly rated prospect will participate in the league's ceremonious return to its more usual fanfare after the coronavirus pandemic forced the annual ev ent to be done virtually last year. Chase is projected to be a high first-round pick, and some mock drafts have him going as high as No. 5 overall to the Cincinnati Bengals, where he'd rejoin former LSU teammate Joe Burrow, or No. 6 overall to the Miami Dolphins. The NFL announced last month that the draft, which takes place April 29 until May 1, will be held in iconic Cleveland locations, including FirstEnergy Stadium, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and the Great Lakes Science Center. - Baton Rouge Advoc ate

Last week, LSU announced that its NFL pro day is scheduled for March 31, and, on Tuesday, the university released of the eight players who will participate in the wake of a canceled NFL combine. The pro day, when NFL scouts test and time LSU's draft-elig ible players, is all the more important this year because the annual NFL scouting combine did not happen because of coronavirus concerns. The list includes four players who opted out for the full 2020 season or at least part of the year. LSU wide receive rs Ja'Marr Chase and Terrace Marshall, both considered first-round talents, headline the offensive side while linebacker Jabril Cox, a Butkus Award semifinalist in 2020, is one LSU's top names on defense along with defensive back Kary Vincent, who starte d at nickel safety in three seasons in Baton Rouge. Safety JaCoby Stevens, fullback/tight end Tory Carter and wide receiver Racey McMath will also participate in the scouting event. - Baton Rouge Advocate

Ja'Marr Chase will next wear LSU's coveted No. 7 jersey. The New Orleans native was an All-American as a true sophomore, the second player to win the Biletnikoff Award in school history, a unanimous All-American wide receiver who set single-season Southe astern Conference records in receiving yards (1,780) and touchdowns (20) in 2019. Ja'Marr Chase sets more records for LSU in title game: 'I got to come up with new goals now' Chase was the first receiver in LSU history to record three 200-yard games in a season, and he was the top target for quarterback Joe Burrow, who won the Heisman Trophy in LSU's national championship season. "He's very deserving of having the opportunity to be the next LSU player to wear number 7," LSU coach Ed Orgeron said in a st atement. "I know he will do a great job of representing that number and all of those who have worn the number 7 before him."The former four-star from Rummel High enters the 2020 season as the Tigers' offense top returning play-maker, and, as he co ntinues the jersey tradition of Tiger greats like Patrick Peterson, Tyrann Mathieu and Grant Delpit, he's laid a promising foundation that could lead to him becoming one of the best wide receivers to ever play at LSU. "This was a tough decision for me," Chase said in the statement. "I've been thinking about this for a couple of weeks. I look at No. 7 as a competitive number. I think the No. 7 at LSU is a challenge. There's a lot of things that go on in the year when you have 7 on, a lot of critics, a lo t of people, a lot of expectations from 7, and I want to have that challenge upon me." - Baton Rouge Advocate
