A STRONG GROUP OF DEFENSIVE LINEMEN

Led by No. 1 junior college prospect Kelten Mickell, there are seven defensive linemen in the top 10 of the initial junior college rankings. Mickell, a defensive tackle, isn’t a towering prospect but his strength, quickness, motor and hand techniques have the potential to be devastating at the next level. South Carolina, Georgia and Houston are just some of the teams pursuing him.
Joining Mickell as four-stars are Mississippi State defensive end commits Kevonte Henry and Zavion Hardy. Henry is an explosive pass rusher with a great frame that should be able to continue developing at the next level. Hardy is a bull of a defensive lineman with the size and strength to play multiple positions along the defensive front.
Rounding out the top 10 are defensive ends Esaia Bogar and Chandavian Bradley along with defensive tackles Tyrell Brown and Tavion Atkinson.
