I'd say Willis. The SEC is and always will be a line of scrimmage league

I WANT Clifton garret pretty badly.

I think noil or Willis would be 3rd most important though.

Considering the man coverage we play so much with our db's, it's either Brown or Paris. Elite corners enable us to do what we do with the front seven.

The legendary R Hobley from Mobile, Al.

Grades are a concern, but I believe that this is the year.

Yes, we play a lot of man coverage. But, you gotta consider who is on the team. Tre White is just a freshman. RR is a freshman. Mills is a true sophmore. We are ok at CB for a little while.

Same with DE.

Malachi Dupre/ Noil IMO. Elite talent at WR. 1 is a slot/percy harvin type guy. The other is a AJ Green type WR. I think both of them could be THAT good. I think they could come in now and both be top 5WRs on the team.

DT is another very important position, considering Freak and Ego both could go pro after this season. If Godchaux/Willis play inside, then they could very well be the 3rd most important guy for us to get.

Same with MLB. We have ALOT of OLB that can run. But dont really have a true MLB. Garrett would be a huge get.

Paris would be a possible #3 solid #4 IMO. Unless this is strictly a noncommitted recruit...

Tony brown is 6'1" that can blanket receivers on an island and runs a 4.34.

Let that sink in. This dude is Patrick Peterson good.

Tony Brown is an AMAZING athlete. Theres no denying that. I have friends and buisness associates in Beaumont area. They say hes 1 of the best pure athletes that anybody has ever seen. While they say hes a damn good football player, hes a way better athlete than he is a football player. On the field they kinda expect more than they have seen so far. Not saying the kid is garbage or anything even close to that. Because hes not. But, ive been told hes way better with the pads off than he is with them on. And all i care about is what they do with the pads on.

He def has all the tools to be great though. Just might need to be coached up a bit or something like that. Because his potential is as high as anybody in the country. And im not trying to bash the kid or anything like that. IMO, hes a top 5 recruit for us and is a MUST get. Just what ive heard from people from his area. And they very well could be wrong. I think its just that the kid is such an amazing athlete people might expect too much from him sometimes.

Have you watched film on him? Guys from the same area of a high profiled recruit tend to say things like that to either make themselves feel/look better or to minimize their accomplishments. They could be just plain haters. My nephew played against La'el in high school. Said he was nothing special

Tony Brown is the number 1 corner for a reason.

Yes of course ive seen his film. Its called a highlight film for a reason. Ive never seen a bad highlight film.

No they werent haters. Not at all. They really like him and said hes a great kid and all that. I just think its because hes already such an accomplished national athlete that they expect way too much from him. I mean hes a high school kid. He will make mistakes. And they didnt say he wasnt good or anything like that. They said hes a great football player, just hasnt lived up to the "hype" that comes with him. Thats all. But his potential is SKY high.

And i could be mistaken, but hasnt Tony Brown moved up in the rankings because of what hes done at camps and at the SPARQ thing?? I mean he was always a top 25 player in the nation, but wasnt he vaulted in the top 10 after his camps and SPARQ showcase?

Gonna be a stud though.

He is basically the consensus number 1 cornerback. Now I know exactly what you're saying.

I just covet athletes like brown, pp7, Matthieu, over big bodies in the trenches and wr's.

Not that they are any more or less important. Just a personal preference. It's a passing game these days, I love the security of having a phenomenal secondary when that ball is in the air. It's a lot easier to stop the run.

I want slobber knockers and int's.

Same here. And im not bashing Tony Brown or anything. Dude is a MUST GET and has all the tools to be a star. It is a passing game, but you GOTTA stop the run in the SEC though.

Yep. In my humble opinion, he is the best wide out in this draft.

Cameron Sims is the best WR in the class?? WHAT!?!? Have you seen Malachi Dupre??

In my humble opinion, Dupre, Noil, and Quinn are all better than Sims, and thats just the in state players. Quille is too. Come home Quille
