I would give Stevens a very slight edge.

But this is a very solid group and these players also possess a lot of athletic ability: Mannie Netherly, Grant Delpit, Kary Vincent, Jr., Stephen Guidry and Jontre Kirklin.

If he signs with the Tigers, Devonta Smith is also right up there with any of them.

Kirkland supposedly has a vertical over 40 inches. That's pretty athletic

Jontre Kirkland. Just need to find a role for him, I hope it is on offense.

Definitely Stevens. Watching some of his film on 247 makes me think honestly of a 'better' J. Adams at this stage. He is very ATH (guy moves like a RB with the ball), with a frame that will allow him to add more 'good' weight as a S at LSU. He'll be a ball-hawk and play-maker in the secondary. See him on the field with the ST unit next season week 1, and maybe even some D sets in the non-conf games to gain exp. No reason to think he will not be a starter as a SOPH.

Stephens is effortlessly athletic. A cut above the rest.

Stevens could be our Safety version of Patrick Peterson

Kary Vincent will be the fastest player on the field 99% of the time in his career though

If we'reverything talking freak athletic abilty, Stevens. But for their size and position Marin Wilson can move, great hands, great feet!

The answer here is Narciss when healthy, but since he has barely played in 2 years go with Stevens

Stevens

He has really good genetics. I went to school with his dad. His dad had crazy hops. All-State high jumper and played basketball, could jump out of the gym.

Kary Vincent Jr and it won't even be close. Best player in this class.

ETA: if we get Wilson and/or flip Allen then I'll be less sure of myself
