16. #24-ATH, #322 overall - Eric Reed (Shreveport/Calvary Baptist) 6'1" 180 lbs - reported to hold LSU offer along with ND, Duke, uKY, Ole Miss, among others, no lean indicated, but probably an LSU lean
Above are all the 4-star 2020 Football recruiting prospects from LA (there are no 5-stars yet).

17. #68-WR Trenton Grow (Edgard)
18. #70-WR Dartravien Girod (Breaux Bridge)
19. #33 DT Jalen Lee (Walker) 6'3" 285 lbs
20. #24-SAF, #398 overall - Bud Clark (Alexanderia) 6'1" 170 lbs - slated for LSU; reports to hold an LSU offer and is warm on LSU
21. #40-DT, #454 overall - Kenean Caldwell (Oak Grove) 6'2" 305 lbs - no reported LSU offer, but holds offers from numerous programs, including Ole Miss and Ta&m, appears to be a Ta&m lean at present

23. #38-CB, #542 overall - Daran Branch (Amite)
24.#45-RB, #543 overall - Kyle Edwards (Destrehan) 6'0" 190 lbs (maybe a guy to watch out for here, especially if top prospects commit elsewhere out of roster fear)
25. #24-OG, #580 overall- Josh Remetich (NOLA) 6'4" 270 lbs
26. #44-DT, #588 overall - Angelo Anderson (NOLA) 6'2" 250 lbs (that's still a highly ranked DT, though lightweight)

28. #17-TE, #605 overall - Dustin Dyson (Hammond) 6'4" 210 lbs - slated to LSU by some; reports to hold an LSU offer, along with MsSt, uTN, Mizzou, but no leaning reported; seems highly underrated, as are many TEs traditionally

43. #46-ILB, #__ - Geron Hargon (Shreveport/Cap't Shreve) 6'2" 220
There are a lot of 4 star recruits and high 3 star prospects, but on the whole, the class does not look that exceptional, and certainly is not balanced.
Hardly any LBs, especially no ILBs, no DEs/WDEs, but there are a ton of DTs.
OL looks weak right now, except for a couple.
But looking at the prospects list, it does not appear very well or thoroughly worked up yet, as evidenced by the fact that many of the LA recruits listed next to each other in LA are also listed right after one another on the national overall listing, which is very, very odd, but it occurs numerous times in this list.
Need to go look at DandyDon's, they usually are the first to work up a more thorough listing of the top 150 or so FB players inside the State of Louisiana, and often top recruits pop off the page from that list and rise up in national rankings over the course of the year starting about now.
