LINK ]Ask Farrell: Which position group is strongest in the 2019 class?


quote:

We ask Rivals.com National Recruiting Director Mike Farrell to weigh in on which position is the strongest in the 2019 class.

FARRELL'S TAKE

"It’s a tough call this year but I’ll go with the offensive tackles because I still think there are a few more who could be five-stars. It’s a very deep position this year. Led by Darnell Wright, who favors Tennessee and Alabama, this is going to be a class where we see many tackle standouts in the NFL Draft in a few years.

Wright is an elite talent and one of our highest-ranked prospects at his position in history right now while fellow five-stars Kenyon Green (Texas A&M commit) and Wanya Morris (Tennessee commit) are also among the elite this year. Logan Brown, Devontae Dobbs and Quinn Carroll all have five-star potential if they continue to develop and as you work your way down the list the depth jumps out at you.

"There are more defensive ends ranked four-stars or higher and of course more wide receivers and cornerbacks, but compared to recent years it’s not that rare a year at those positions. Give me the offensive tackles this year."

PROSPECTS RANKED AS FOUR-STARS OR HIGHER AT EACH POSITION

Quarterback: 22
Running back: 28
Wide receiver: 43
Tight end: 14
Offensive tackle: 34
Offensive guard: 17
Offensive center: 1
Defensive end: 51
Defensive tackle: 21
Linebacker: 31
Cornerback: 45
Safety: 23
Athlete: 27

Good to see Truss making a visit, didn't know he had family in Bama. I have heard that UA is a popular school for the boys at his high school.

Yep. Btw, the Trussville town name is linked to his relatives' last name.

Doesn’t look like Taulia made the trip tonight to UT. We’ll see if he goes tomorrow or this weekend.

LINK ]2019 Position Rankings Update: Defensive line (Rivals - segments)
quote:

There are six five-star prospects along the defensive line in the newest Rivals250 and the large majority of the defensive linemen near the top of the rankings are uncommitted. There will be plenty of news coming out of this position in the next few months, so take a look at where things stand after the most recent rankings update.

2019 DL RANKINGS: DT | SDE | WDE

Alabama holds commitments from Rivals100 defensive tackle Antonio Alfano and Rivals250 weakside defensive end Kevin Harris. Alfano is a top 5 prospect at his position, while Harris is in the top 10 at his position. They are joined in Alabama’s recruiting class by three-star defensive linemen DJ Dale and Rashad Cheney.

Rivals Ranking Week rolls along with debut of the new position rankings. While most people pay close attention to the Rivals100 and the Rivals250, plenty of moves happen across the board, especially at various positions. Today, we take a look at the new rankings at inside and outside linebacker and look at some of the biggest storylines at the position.

TEAM WITH TOP COMMIT: AUBURN


Owen Pappoe

There is still plenty of dust to settle at the linebacker position, but right now the Tigers hold the top spot with the spring commitment of Rivals100 prospect Owen Pappoe, the No. 1-ranked OLB in the country. The Atlanta-area native has been a fixture on the recruiting scene since before he entered high school and the Tigers surprised many when they landed his commitment in May.

TEAM TO WATCH: GEORGIA


Nakobe Dean

After sending former Rivals100 prospect Roquan Smith to the NFL after three years in Athens, the Georgia staff has been letting elite prospects know that they can follow the same path if they come between the hedges. The nation’s top-ranked middle linebacker, Nakobe Dean, has drawn comparisons to Smith and is believed to be high on the Dawgs. Georgia also seems like the team to beat for No. 4-ranked inside linebacker, Rivals100 prospect Rian Davis.

PLAYER TO WATCH: HENRY TO’OTO’O

Henry To'oto'o, the West Coast’s top linebacker, holds offers from all over the country and thus far has done a nice job of keeping fans, coaches and recruiting analysts guessing about his future college home.

To’oto’o currently sits at No. 3 in the inside linebacker rankings, and because of his diverse list of offers and favorites, his eventual decision will go a long way toward deciding which school has the top group of commits at the position.

Alabama, Cal, Tennessee, UCLA and USC are all heavily involved. Will he leave the comfort of California to head to SEC country? Schools from around the nation will continue to watch how the process plays out.

LINK ]Top Performers: Auburn 7-on-7 Passing Tournament (BamaOnLine -- segments)
quote:

AUBURN, AL -- Nearly 40 high schools were represented on Thursday at Auburn University, competing in 7-on-7 action from morning until nightfall. In between, there was an offensive/defensive line competition as hundreds of players put in work on a bevy of fields, culminating with the championship game at Jordan-Hare Stadium.

Phenix City (AL) Central would hold on to defeat Alabaster (AL) Thompson thanks to a big early lead and late defensive stand on a two-point conversion attempt to claim the crown from Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn. Leading up to that point, several college football prospects caught our attention at 247Sports.

Bo Nix -- What more can be said about Bo? The Pinson (Ala.) Pinson Valley quarterback led his team nearly all the way to the championship on his future home stadium turf. The four-star Auburn pledge did so with a variety of launch angles and wow plays mixed into his usual, consistent, take-what-the-defense-gives-him mentality.

But Nix was willing to take more risks at this event, showcasing more arm strength than often given credit for, and it resulted in a deep run that shouldn't have ended in the semifinal considering his would-be game winner of a throw was dropped by the intended target in the end zone.

The future Tiger went over and pulled up the intended target, embarrassed by the mistake, immediately after it went down to encourage him to focus on the next step instead of the previous.

Taulia Tagovailoa -- Comparisons to his big brother aside, the Alabaster (Ala.) Thompson star continues to showcase a very strong arm and equally quick release in every setting this offseason. Leading the Warriors to the title game out of a deep field of high school teams from three states, no passer created more buzz than the Alabama commitment on the day.

Folks who have seen him for years were impressed just as much as those seeing him in action for the first time with the drive on the ball, touch down the field and ability to fit the ball into tight windows. He also helped some new wide receiver targets emerge for the first time, particularly the guy who probably caught more passes than any other on the day in slot talent Kyle Smoak.

The Tagovailoa vs. Nix Iron Bowl preview never materialized, but the duo was best in show once again.
