Always fun to see which players come out of nowhere to be big names. The SEC has a lot of talent that flies below the recruiting radar.

For Georgia, I'll say 3 star DT Daquan Hawkins, 6'4", 301, can also play OG. He was lightly recruited early on because of grade concerns. I hope he makes it because I think his senior video is impressive.

Josh Allen, a 3* DE/OLB from New Jersey.

He's 6'4 220 and led the state of New Jersey in sacks last season with 22.5 and added another 23.0 TFL. It was his first season playing the position. The previous three years he spent playing WR at a 3A school in Alabama and was 1st Team All-State as a JR at WR.

No idea how he flew so far under the radar, NJ is a state with pretty good football. He had offers from Hawaii and Kansas but his HS coach was going to send him to prep for a year if Kentucky didn't offer him.

Roney Elam- long athletic CB who is a bit raw but could be a great one if he fills out his body a little bit and refines his technique

Would probably be my answer if we had been able to flip him. Should be a great one for the Vols

Isn't it impossible to tell who the best "sleeper" is at this point? Isn't that why they are "sleepers"?

Trent Thompson. We're hoping he gets arrested soon so we can outbid auburn for him. He's a beast.

not sure if Jon Taylor would be considered a sleeper, but his talent is more than his star rating suggests.

I think Lester Cotton will be the next beastly Bama OL.

not sure if bama has many recruits in this class that would be considered sleepers, but judging their hype vs their talent, I'd say Anfernee Jennings, DE from Dadeville, 6'3 256 is a pretty good choice.

I'd say either Matt Womack or Keaton Anderson. I don't think I've seen Bama work so hard to steal a three star, as we did with Womack.

I should have said, "who is your favorite sleeper of your new class".

Try this: Which one of your less heralded recruits will end up being the biggest sleeper in the class?

Kiffin's fault. Somebody told him Chance's little brother was out there, and he didn't realize the kid is white and his name is spelled differently.

Very good, but it has to fit in the subject line.

Rawleigh Williams will be the latest in a long line of great running backs at Running Back U.

Good point. You need something that says the same thing, but is shorter.

How about this:

Franklin Agbasimere - 3* OLB from Nigeria. Never attended a camp. Has played in less than 20 football games ever. He was way under the radar. Scouts noticed him while looking at a teammate, I believe.
