DT Dexter Lawrence
High School: Wake Forest (Wake Forest, North Carolina)
Size: 6'5", 330 pounds
Composite Ranking: No. 2 defensive tackle; No. 3 overall
247Sports Crystal Ball Leader: Florida (44 percent)
Bleacher Report Breakdown
"Lawrence makes playing defensive tackle look easy. He's a big, strong, elusive athlete who can either bully the offensive lineman or make moves around him. Lawrence is quick off the snap and deceptively fast."—B/R recruiting analyst Damon Sayles
Dexter Lawrence landed on the national recruiting radar as one of the East Coast's premier young playmakers, compiling 44 total tackles for loss and 15 sacks as a sophomore and junior, per MaxPreps. He solidified his place among America's elite this summer with a strong performance at The Opening.
Prediction: Clemson
Lawrence plans to announce his choice Dec. 14, according to Luke Stampini of 247Sports, and if that remains the case, he is currently closing in on a decision. He's spent time at Clemson, Florida, Alabama and NC State this season while researching options, and a trip to Ohio State is next.
The Buckeyes aim to send him home with a favorable impression of Columbus, but this feels like a battle between Florida and Clemson. We're inclined to lean toward the Tigers.

OT Greg Little
High School: Allen (Allen, Texas)
Size: 6'5½", 305 pounds
Composite Ranking: No. 1 offensive tackle; No. 2 overall
247Sports Crystal Ball Leader: Ole Miss (42 percent)
Bleacher Report Breakdown
"In terms of pass protection, he's already versed in techniques such as hand placement and kick steps. He's physical enough in the run game, but that's one area where he can grow in his transition to the next level. Little is the most complete prospect in the 2016 class among offensive linemen."—B/R recruiting analyst Sanjay Kirpalani
Greg Little started his high school career at tight end but quickly shifted to offensive tackle, where he served as a starter during back-to-back state title runs in 2013 and 2014. His athleticism and evolving strength presents an opportunity for him to make an immediate impact at either tackle position.
Prediction: Ole Miss
Little initially expected to follow former Allen High School teammate Kyler Murray to Texas A&M, pledging to the Aggies before his junior season. Instead, he reopened a widespread recruitment this summer.
It's been a busy fall for the blue-chip bookend, with trips to Auburn, Georgia, LSU and Alabama. He postponed a late October announcement and will visit Ole Miss in January, according to Bleacher Report's Damon Sayles, putting the Rebels in prime position to add a potential elite protector for Elite 11 MVP quarterback Shea Patterson.
