Charles and Trevor switched their CB predictions to ga for Jackson Harris.
Listed Gragg, Jalen Harris, and Deandre McNeal as possible replacements. McNeal is more of an h-back, but may help us land Malik Jefferson.

My top 5 impact players we need to land in this class:
1. Hale Hentges- Put simply, we have one good tight end. If Hentges stays, I expect him to start immediately. He may need some time to adjust and develop a bit more, but he has a high motor, and can receive and block equally well. His ability to use his body in his catches may make him our best red zone tight end.
2. Daron Payne- As a 5 star in-state recruit, Payne has always been high priority, but with his weight continuing to rise, he is becoming the perfect DT for our scheme. We have tried and failed to get the right fit at the position for a few years. Add in that he would likely choose Auburn if not us, and it's clear that this is a player we really need to finish with.
3. Deionte Thompson- Only rising up the list as he gets closer to his fifth star. Our depth at safety will be decimated in 2015 with Nick Perry and Jarrick Williams graduating and Landon Collins likely going to the draft. Thompson is also stressing that he wants to enroll early, which could give him a legitimate shot to start for us.
4. Lester Cotton- It's pretty simple. Lester Cotton is a really good guard, and we need depth on the line ASAP. Not much to say here, besides I chose him over Petitbon.
5. Shawn Burgess-Becker (Calvin Ridley)- It's important for us to finish with Shawn Burgess Becker for the same reasons as Thompson, we are weak at safety. I like Thompson more, but the depth will still be valuable, and the 4 star athlete is tied with what could end up being the best receiver in the country. Not a bad bonus.
Honorable mention: Tyler Carr/Martez Ivey: We need to land a good tackle to complete the class.
feel free to voice your disagreements

Carr doesn't belong in the same breath as Ivey IMO

I would throw Drew Richmond in there for Tackle.

For your honorable mention id take Richmond over Carr. Carr is more of a project whereas Richmond could potentially step in at right tackle when Shep graduates.

No Leo Lewis?
List is not legit.

If we land Richmond our last 2 online classes will be the best statistically ever. We will have from left to right in 3 years
Robinson, Cotton, hassenauer, pierschbacher, G.Hill
Backups will be pettitbon, warmack, casher, and 2 other 4-5 stars we will end up with from the 2016 class and maybe someone like Richmond. I could see pettitbon starting somewhere in there as well if one of those 5 doesn't pan out. That line will be better than the 2012 OL

Looks like our 2nd TE will be Jalen Harris.

Yep
@AndrewJBone: Jalen Harris, three-star TE from St. James in Montgomery, Ala., is visiting #Alabama today. He received an offer last week.

I may just be me but I am really not that impressed with his film and he never seems to stand out at the camps ,imo.

Ben Davis is now a 5 Star on 247. We have a great chance with him and fellow 5 star Lyndell Wilson for 2016

Ben Davis is legit.

good. they need to jump on his buddy Kenny Thomas, the big LT that transferred from St. James to Prattville. He's gonna be a late riser. He wont be a 5 star prospect but he's got NFL size and his technique and conditioning are improving greatly since moving to a new school.

2015 OT at Prattville, 6'7 330. 2 star right now, but picking up lots of offers.
Posted on 6/12/14 at 5:11 pm to Rizzy
I think Ben Davis will be our first 2016 commit.
