A smooth and explosive 5-star athlete, Terry Godwin could very well play receiver at Georgia. At 6'0" and 168 pounds, Godwin has electric speed and quickness.

He gets off the line in a hurry, which puts cornerbacks in trail-position almost immediately. Godwin then uses his knack for setting up his routes, which allows him launch out of his breaks to create separation. He shows good hands, plus he has excellent run-after-catch skills.

Cecil Shorts of the Jacksonville Jaguars is Godwin's NFL comparison.

A 4-star safety from Texas, Deionte Thompson has outstanding recognition and vision. He understands how to be patient after the snap, plus he does a great job of recognizing routes.

Thompson, who is 6'2" and 181 pounds, drives hard on underneath routes after he comes out of transition. The Alabama pledge also uses his long arms well when attempting to get his hands on balls.

He looks a lot like Denver Broncos safety Rahim Moore on tape.

Minkah Fitzpatrick has a chance to become a complete cornerback at Alabama. He is a great athlete who can jam receivers at the line, but he also has the ability to work well in off-man coverage.

The 6'0", 185-pound New Jersey native is a 5-star prospect. He has great anticipation skills in coverage, and he also has impressive short-area quickness. With his loose hips and quickness out of transition, Fitzpatrick compares to Chris Harris Jr. of the Denver Broncos.

Ofodile's NFL comparison is Keenan Allen of the San Diego Chargers.

Do.Not.Want.

I could also see UGA getting Patrick, UF getting CeCe (Bama has a great shot though), and Bama landing Malik Jefferson

Oh. And I'm not ranking the Dual-Threat QBs. The only one I like is Jarrett Stidham and he can go frick himself.

You don't have to break em up, just QBs could be all QBs, RB would be RB, APB, and FB, DE could be SDE and WDE, etc.

For athletes, just put them at the position you see them playing.

Bama has offered one of the the nation's top 2016 prospects, DT Julian Rochester per 247Sports Rusty Mansell. Tide assistant Lance Thompson was by Powder Springs (Ga.) McEachern on Monday to check on the 5-star rising junior. Rochester also holds offers from the likes of Auburn, Georgia, Clemson, Miami, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas A&M.

Rochester is the teammate of recently committed 2014 5-stars Taj Griffin (Oregon) and Chuma Edoga (USC). The 6-foot-5.5, 280-pound Rochester ranks as the no. 3 overall prospect, no. 1 DT, and no. 1 rising junior in Georgia according to 247Sports. His Crystal Ball has two picks each for both Auburn and Georgia.

Most people think he will eventually sign with Georgia.

RB:

1. Jovon Robinson
2. Damien Harris
3. Jacques Patrick

Admittedly, I have not watched a lot of RB film this year with Flowers in the fold (I’d rank him #4) and, until recently, the likelihood of landing Robinson. I reserve the right to change these in the near future.

APB:

1. Rodney Anderson
2. Taj Griffin
3. Kirk Merritt

I like Anderson more than Griffin. Sue me.

FB:

1. Chandler Cox
2. David Ducre

I don’t know any other FBs.

OT:

1. Martez Ivey
2. Mitch Hyatt
3. Chuma Edoga

Ivey is a prototype LT. I think he is Florida bound though. Hyatt needs to add weight but he stoned the frick out of Robert Nkemdiche as a Sophomore. That’s impressive even if he is going to play for Dabo. Edoga is just a good player. Let’s all laugh at Tennessee for thinking they had a shot at landing him.

OG:

1. Maea Teuhema
2. Jalin Barnett
3. Lester Cotton
4. Richie Petitbon

Yeah I ranked 4 of them again. You want to fight about it? I know Teuhema is listed as an OT, but I think he plays Guard for LSU. I don’t think he can handle the speed rush to be a Tackle. Instead he’ll be an elite Guard. I have Barnett over Cotton but not by much. If Petitbon wasn’t committed to us I would have just left it at 3. I wanted y’all to see where I felt he ranked in regards to the other OGs.

Center:

1. Tristen Hoge
2. Darryll Williams
3. Dallas Warmack

Most of the kids who end up playing Center are Guards or even Tackles in high school (see practically every Center we have on our roster). Hoge is the best Center prospect in the country. I like Williams as a Center. He put Daron Payne on his arse a few times in the Birmingham NFTC last month. I think Warmack ends up at Center too. This is probably the hardest position to rank.
