The LSU Tigers have been a dominant college football team throughout the entire season, going into the College Football Playoff with an undefeated record. They opened the poll as the fourth-ranked team in the country, but have fought their way to the top of the rankings ahead of their CFP matchup against the fourth-ranked Oklahoma Sooners.

But once the College Football Playoff comes to a close, NFL Draft season will be right around the corner. This will be an exciting time for LSU fans, as the Tigers will have a few players that could end up going in the top part of the draft.

Starting with Heisman winner Joe Burrow to a handful of players from LSU's talented defense, it's safe to say the NFL will be infused with some top talent out of Baton Rouge come this April.

With that in mind, here's a look at some LSU players that could be first-round picks come April.
