Jefferson was an absolute star at LSU and had 111 catches for 1,540 yards and 18 touchdowns as a junior. His 14-catch, 227-yard, 4-touchdown performance in the playoffs against Oklahoma was an eye-opening game.
As a senior this past season, Duvernay had 106 catches for 1,386 yards and 9 touchdowns. Gibson, a transfer, had 38 catches for 735 yards and 8 touchdowns last season.
