QB Raymond Levine (James Madison)
Levine put up video game statistics in his last year at James Madison and took advantage of this momentum by deciding to move on to a Div I program. Levine has some great qualities like his pin point accuracy and explosive release that compliment his elusiveness in and out of the pocket. Unfortunately he has some issues with his middle of the road arm strength and intelligence. Levine may not ever reach 5 star status but he has a lot of potential and has shown the ability to rally the troops while showing the "it" factor. Very hot prospect moving up boards as teams really look to secure the most important position on the team.
RB Michael Snyder (Dartmouth)
Snyder finally broke out last season with Dartmouth and showed just what he's capable of doing. Surpassing the 1,000 yard mark for the first time in his career he also lead the team with 11 rushing TD's. He has the characteristics of an everydown workhorse back. Has great feet and power with soft hands and great agility in space. The one aspect of his game that scouts have reservations about is his lack of homerun speed. He is very comparable to last year's Freshman All-American Lencho Wicks.
WR Reid Axtell (Southern Utah)
Axtell is a speedy homerun hitter. Used as a running back at Southern Utah, Axtell showed the ability to make people miss and get the edge but doesn't possess the power to be an inside chain mover. His inability to secure the ball and knack for drops has hurt his status in the process but many think he will bring incredible gamechanging moments that could change games at the next level.
TE Joseph Chow (Western Illinois)
Chow has become a very hot prospect in the last few weeks due to his versatility as an inline tightend. He has incredible receiving skills to compliment his top level blocking ability. A player some programs are looking at as a left tackle, Chow compares very well with last year's top tightend Thomas Fanelli. Chow is a locker room leader and looks to be about as clean as it gets with his background checks.
G German Nam (Central Arkansas)
One of the top interior lineman in the class, Nam has elite feet and mobility. His well rounded game is still developing but he has the potential to be a superstar at any of the spots along the line. One red flag popped up during medical checks is a knee problem that may be concerning. If the knee checks out Nam could develop into an All-American type talent but it's if the knee is debilitative it could really change the course of his future.
DE Amos Cooper (Eastern Kentucky)
Cooper is one of the most coveted players on the market in this year's class. Equally adept stopping the run as he is getting after the QB, Cooper comes into the draft with no real question marks about his future. Cooper is currently ranked #2 prospect by Rivals.com
DE Micheal Henrich (Yale)
One of the FCS' best sack artists in his last season at Yale Henrich has a very high ceiling due to his rawness and untapped potential. Despite showing good measurables at his workouts he has mental lapses and doesn't quite look natural when utilizing his array of pass rushing moves. One of the classic boom or bust prospects in this year's class, Henrich will make or break someone's program in year one.
WLB Alvin Cutright (Stephen F. Austin)
Cutright is a very explosive athlete that excelled in Lumberjack's defense last year. The top LB recruit according to Rivals.com, Cutright has the skills to move to defensive back where his coverage and speed could be best suited. A very skillful playmaker that could see many schools fighting over his rare talents.
CB Phillip Bowling (UC Davis)
Bowling has underachieved while playing at the FCS level but his skill set makes him an intriguing prospect for the NCAA. He showed signs of improving his ball skills as he picked off a career high 5 passes last season. He has top level coverage ability but his biggest weakness is his strength and redirect skills when engaging a receiver at the line. Possibly better suited for safety or nickel corner, Bowling is a very inconsistent athlete. With the right coaching he could really explode on the scene due to his fluidity and speed.
FS Louis Peden (Towson)
Peden has good size for a safety and many scouts peg him as a good LB prospect at the Div I level. Not a straight line speedster, Peden has great quickness and burst. One of the most well rounded prospects in the nation, Peden should offer a great deal of versatility to the team that is able to coax him into committing.
