With the initial Rivals100 for the class of 2017 out earlier than ever and college coaches offering numerous freshmen and even some middle schoolers, it has become clear that ranking prospects sooner has become the norm at Rivals.com.
So while this isn't a true ranking -- no stars, no numbers -- for the class of 2018, we thought it would be a good time to take a look at 18 players to keep an eye on for the 2018 class.
Some of these prospects will end up ranked as five-stars while some might not even be in the Rivals250 by the end of their ranking cycle. But, right now, they are worthy of being watched.
Next up is a look at Montgomery (Ala.) Parks Crossing offensive tackle Marcus Jenkins.

OT Marcus Jenkins
Montgomery (Ala.) Parks Crossing
Scouting Report: A man who goes by the nickname "Tank" almost always carries impressive size, and that's certainly the case with Jenkins. He hasn't participated in many national camps, but his size and film make quite a statement. He could stand to reshape his massive body a bit, but he has years to do so before he'll be asked to play a college snap.
Offers and Interest: Jenkins hold five offers. Florida State and Auburn are players in his recruitment, but edging out Alabama will be mighty difficult for the Seminoles or any other program should the Tide pull the trigger on an offer.
National Recruiting Director Mike Farrell's take: Jenkins is a huge, nasty lineman who is a road grader in the run game and has surprising quickness and change of direction in pass protection. What I like about him the most is the way he finishes his blocks and makes sure his opponent is on his back when the play is over. He could end up being a guard, but right now he has tackle potential, which makes him special.
