CJ is a solid DB overall but excels in zone coverage. He reads routes and does a nice job of picking up keys from the backfield. He has good ball skills and competes. Being recruited by: Ohio State
Darius is fast and quick. He has terrific feet and hips to allow him to play either side of the ball but he is very dangerous with the ball in his hands. He will make the transition from playing QB to playing receiver or corner and returner. Being recruited by: Oklahoma
There's a place on the football field for a guy like this. He plays hard, will hit and can run. He's a better run stopper from the back end than a true cover guy and he'll help on special teams. Being recruited by: Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, LSU, Miami, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, USC, Texas
Jon is a hard hitting versatile player. He fronts the runner up very well and attacks from inside out on anything to the edge with speed and urgency. He can play safety but LB is his best position. Being recruited by: Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Duke, Florida, Florida State, Kansas, LSU, Miami
Janzen is a blur on the way to the ball carrier and throws all of his 174 pounds into every hit. He runs very well and breaks on the ball with speed and an urgency. Being recruited by: LSU
Ro has good feet and flexible, loose hips. He is hard to get a clean shot on. If he continues to grow and hit the weight room he'll get faster and be a very good intermediate receiver or a safety prospect.

Q is a powerful down blocker and will come off the ball with good pad level when he's drive blocking. He gets to the second level and is pretty agile when he gets there. Being recruited by: Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, Maryland, Miami, North Carolina St., South Carolina, Tennessee
Fellows is a big old raw kid that can move. He can really deliver a blow. When he learns ins and outs of playing the DE spot he'll be a force. Being recruited by: Ohio State

Craig looks the part and has tools that will match in time. He's playing on the end but should put on good weight naturally to move inside. He could be a terrific end in the 3-4. Being recruited by: Illinois
Brown is an active, sideline to sideline player. He chases the ball relentlessly and shows surprising closing speed when he gets close. His future looks very bright. Being recruited by: Florida

Goodman is a project that isn't too far from being complete. He has the size, feet, long arms and athleticism to be a really good defensive end. Being recruited by: Clemson
