The best of 2017
There are more 2017 prospects than ever that will be in attendance at The Opening including the No. 1 prospect in the country for 2017. It would be highly unlikely that anyone would unseat Dylan Moses at No. 1 for 2017 based on a camp performance but there's certainly a strong possibility that he'll get some company at the top.
Already Moses will have fellow 2017 five-star Calvin Ashley in attendance but Suwanee (Ga.) Peachtree Ridge defensive back Deangelo Gibbs and Fort Lauderdale (Fla.) St. Thomas Aquinas wide receiver Trevon Grimes are nipping at their heels for that fifth star and both will have an opportunity to earn it in a 7on7 setting.
Other 2017 prospects that are in striking distance include wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones, linebacker Markail Benton, running backs Najee Harris and D'Andre Swift, offensive guard Jack Anderson, offensive tackle Trey Smith and cornerback Jamyest Williams. If you're an underclassman at The Opening, you're already in the five-star conversation.

Side by side comparisons
Who's this year's DUDE at wide receiver?
There are a lot of wide receivers in this class that are elite but if I'm starting my team tomorrow, I don't think there's a clear No.1 or even a clear 2 or 3 that I'm confident will take over a game or a team. Just about every major name at receiver will be facing off head to head at this event so if an alpha dog doesn't emerge in this group then we need start expanding our search.
To me, the best candidates are Binjimen Victor, Nate Craig-Myers, Kyle Davis and DeKaylin Metcalf. All of those guys have the elite size you are looking for in a No. 1 and all of them have the athletic upside you need. Each has his warts though. Maybe this is the year that a smaller guy is the top receiver.
No Demetris Robertson?
