Greg Robinson, a top 5 pick in 2014

 Former Thibodaux High School and Auburn star offensive tackle Greg Robinson will go down as the highest drafted offensive lineman from the state of Louisiana in the modern day era of the NFL draft.

Robinson could go as high as the second overall pick, and if he is drafted within the top 5 choices he will join an elite group of players that either played high school football in Louisiana or went to a Louisiana college and was a top-5 pick since the leagues merged their drafts back in 1967.
