from Espn. Who else yall got from your own team?
•Alex Collins, RB, Arkansas: Collins is the type of back first-year coach Bret Bielema needs to get his offense going. He can be both a tough, downhill runner and a slasher. The Hogs don't have much experience at running back, so Collins will be expected to step in right away.
•O.J. Howard, TE, Alabama: Howard is just a missmatch waiting to happen with his 6-foot-6, 237-pound frame and receiver-like speed. He enrolled early and seemed to catch everything thrown his way this spring. He does have to improve his blocking, but with Michael Williams gone, Howard should be a very valuable receiving weapon.
•Tray Matthews, S, Georgia: The Bulldogs are rebuilding all over on defense, but the free safety spot is more than covered by Matthews. He was outstanding this spring and was pegged as a starter the moment he stepped on campus. He's not only a big-hitter but can cover a ton of ground with his speed.
•Robert Nkemdiche, DE, Ole Miss: The No. 1 recruit in the nation should play immediately. The coaches know that hype could be a distraction, but they also know that Nkemdiche already has the talent to see the field now. He has to get comfortable with the playbook, but people around the program think he can have a Jadeveon Clowney-like impact.
•Demarcus Robinson, WR, Florida: The Gators are desperately looking for a go-to receiver. Robinson possesses the skill to be that guy, but he has to get his head in the playbook more during summer workouts. He certainly got a head-start by enrolling early and made a lot of plays stretching the field and making the tough catches this spring.

Good list. VH3 will make an impact at UF as well IMO.

I can't wait to see Dorial Green-Beckham for Mizzou!
I hear he's a stud.

I can't wait to see this guy on the field this year.

I really wish AU could have pulled Matthews from Georgia. We are not deep at Safety and could have used his talent. I think he's going to be one to watch at Georgia.
I have a feeling Nkemdiche is going to be a bit of a flop. Feel like the kid had a lot of hype about him and may let that get to his head. Hope he proves me wrong.
Florida's problem isn't receivers, its the guy throwing the ball to the receivers thats the problem. Driskel is so hot and cold its a coin toss to see which one you're going to get that game.

Alex Collins will be an all-American rb eventually, but Tre'devious white for LSU could be the next great corner

WR - Kwinton Smith. IMHO in the same mold as Alshon, only more gifted and had a redshirt year to morph into the system.
Kicker - Nick St Germain. Big time leg - he's going to make a name for himself this year IMHO.

When Carl Lawson cuts Tyler Russell in half...the SEC will be on notice.
