QB: A - Jacob Park was a highly rated EE. Bobo was content enough with him that he did not send out another offer or accept commitments after Park got on board.

RB: A+ - You're all fricked and you know why.

OL: B+ - Solid line haul with plenty of guys who should contribute. Dyshon Sims and Isaiah Wynn will be starters and Jake Edwards could be a diamond in the rough. Lacking that Theus or Tunsil type big name to really make this class stand out, though.

WR: B- - Had we not nabbed McKenzie this morning, I'd put this as a C. It's not a bad group, but missing out on guys like Josh Malone isn't great. McKenzie may end up being our kick returner in the Fall, though.

TE: A+ - As far as TEs go, you can't do much better this year than Jeb Blazevich. Adding a solid prospect in Atkinson and this was a nice set of recruits to add to Jay Rome. Hopefully Chris Clark jumps on board TEU soon.

DL: C - Even with Andrew Williams, this wasn't going to be a stellar haul. Lamont Gaillard should be good (assuming he drops the weight and keeps it off). However, Kendall Baker is expected to go to the OL so Gaillard is our only DL commit of the class. With Ray Drew,Mike Thornton, and Toby Johnson gone after next year, we needed at least 3 DL this cycle. We will have to pick up a few more guys in addition to Trenton Thompson in 2015 to make up for it.

LBs: A - Detric Dukes, Lorenzo Carter, Keyon Brown. Given that UGA stocked up on LBs last year with guys like LEonard Floyd, Johnny O'Neal, Tim Kimbrough, etc., these three new guys only make a great group even better.

DBs: B+ - Malkolm Parrish is a stud. Add to that a tall JUCO CB in Shattle Fenteng, Shaq Jones, and Dominick Sanders and UGA has done well to build up its reserves for Pruitt to work with an already crowded defensive backfield.

QB: B - Jacob Park He needs some work but he has the measurables. Solid recruit

RB: A+ - Sony Michel and Nick Chubb Yeah we gone go ahead and book that one as a homerun.

OL: A - - No big names but landed alot of guys that should fill depth and lots of big bodies. Dyshon Sims, Isaiah Wynn, Kendall Baker and Jake Edwards all have talent and could really push this class up. I think we had a great haul.

WR: B with potential for an A. We took a chance on alot of under the radar guys that are small but blazing fast. Isaiah Mckenzie is easily my favorite recruit in this class. Watch his videos. He is insanely fast. Rico and Gilbert are guys that probably need to redshirt but provide good depth.

TE: A+ - Love the 2 TE's we got. Hunter Atkinson and Jeb Blazevic will contribute early. Atkinson is huge and Jeb can catch passes like a boss.


DL: D , Our only guy needs to get in shape. I will place Lorenzo in the LB group even though he could end up on the DL.

LBs: A - Detric Dukes, Lorenzo Carter, Keyon Brown. Beast group. Keyon Brown and Carter have elite pass rushing skills. VERY HAPPY here.

DBs: B - Malkolm Parrish, Fenteng, Sanders, Shaq Jones are solid group. Parrish is the star of the group and the others have legit talent but I am not sold. We went after alot of solid guys and missed so we picked up Jones and Sanders who need work. Jones is probably the better of the 2 but Sanders provides versatility.

QB: A - Jacob Park was South Carolina's Mr Football. Other SC Mr. Footballs have been Marcus Lattimore and Jadeveon Clowney. He finished the Elite 11 qb camp as the highest rated. The only reason I don't grade this A+ is because we let Deshaun Watson slip away to Clemson. They took GA's best QB, and we took theirs. A+ would have been us getting both.

RB: A+ Signed the #1 RB from GA and the #1 RB from Florida.

OL: C Although we signed two solid 4 star guys, and another 3 star, we really needed another 1 or two guys on the line, considering how much we lose in the next two years. I know we didn't have alot of room this year, but for any grade higher than a C, I would have liked to see another 1 or 2 4-star guys in the class on the OL.

TE- A+ Jeb Blazevich is one of the best TE's in the country, he went to some Nike Camp during his recruitment and drilled with the Wide Receivers, and he actually won the Best Wide Receiver award, as a 6-5 230# tight end. Excellent speed and great hands. What gives this class the A+ in this position is the fact we took another 3 star TE for depth.... which is needed after losing Lynch to the NFL and Flournoy-Smith to weed/Saban.


DL: C Gaillard was a 5 star before he got a little chubby this year and was dropped to a high 4 star. He will be a great player. But for the same reasons tyler mentioned, needed more DL in this class.

Linebacker A+ for the same reasons Tyler said. Lorenzo Carter by himself gives it an A+. The other guys are just cherries on top.


DB (and WR)- C I think we have enough DB talents on the team already, young, lots of potential, with a limited sized class this year I would rather have only signed 2 or 3 DB's and picked up a few more big uglies on either line. Crazily, I'd rank this unit higher if we had taken fewer. Same goes for wide receivers, but to a lesser extent.
