(Page 2 of 7)

Arial; font-size: 10pt;">Blackwell is an athletic prospect that hasn't even come close to reaching his upside. He possesses terrific size and open field running ability and he also displays very good straight-line speed for his size.

WR Rashad Greene, St. Thomas Aquinas (Ft. Lauderdale, FL); 6'0/175 (committed to Florida)

Posted a time of 4.4 seconds in the 40-yard dash at the Under Armour prospect combine and catches the ball well out in front of his body. Greene is a smart player who gets open using athleticism and technique.

TE Troy Niklas, Servite (Anaheim, CA); 6'7/243 (considering Notre Dame, Penn State, Stanford, and California)

His large build makes him an extremely productive blocker, but his athleticism allows him to be an equally effective pass catcher off the line.

OT Cyrus Kouandijo, DeMatha (Hyattsville, MD); 6'7/322 (considering Alabama, Florida, Notre Dame, and West Virginia)

Arguably the best offensive linemen in all of high school football, Kouandijo runs very, very well for his large size and is explosive out of his three-point stance. This prospect shows a bit of a mean streak, will punish defenders when the opportunity presents itself, and is basically a lock to be an immediate starter in college.

OT La'El Collins, Redemptorist (Baton Rouge, LA); 6'5/285 (committed to LSU)

Collins combines agility, flexibility, and brute strength in his game, which makes him an ideal lineman for quarterbacks. Ran the 40 in 5.37 and has a vertical jump of 24 inches.

C Andrew Ness, Christian Brothers College (St. Louis, MO); 6'4/298 (considering Arkansas, Rice, Wisconsin, and Missouri)

With great size and excellent technical execution (specifically the center-to-QB shotgun exchange), Ness makes for an outstanding offensive center. He is considering the likes of Wisconsin, Kansas State, Missouri, and Purdue.

OG Trai Turner, St. Augustine (New Orleans, LA); 6'5/340 (committed to LSU)

Explosive lineman who overpowers defensive opponents with his quickness off the ball (has fast feet for his size) and force behind his drive.

OG Ryan Klachko, Sacred Heart Griffin (Springfield, IL); 6'4/287 (committed to
