Gibbs is a no-brainer for an invitation if he is healthy and attends a regional camp. He has attended several Rivals camps over the years and he is a two-time Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge attendee. He made big waves with his play in 2014 and he was a standout again in 2015. He is a five-star prospect and he has shown he is more than capable of shining on the big stage at the Five-Star Challenge.
WR
Trevon Grimes
Fort Lauderdale (Fla.) St. Thomas Aquinas
Grimes entered the 2015 Rivals100 Five-Star challenge as a five-star wide receiver and he did not disappoint. He earned his spot in Baltimore after being one of the top wide receivers in a strong group at the Miami Rivals Camp. Grimes has shown himself to posses a well-rounded skillset and it showed as he earned Second-Team All-Five-Star Challenge honors and he was among the top offensive performers after a strong showing in one-on-one drills.
CB
Richard LeCounte
Riceboro (Ga.) Liberty County
There are not many who have had the opportunity to attend three Five-Star Challenge events, but LeCounte has a chance to make it happen. He attended the 2014 Five-Star Challenge after a strong performance at the 2014 Atlanta Rivals Camp. He was able to return to Baltimore in 2015 and again he had a solid performance.
ILB
Nate McBride
Vidalia (Ga.)
McBride made a strong case for his 2015 Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge invitation with a standout performance at the Atlanta Rivals Camp, where was one of the top underclassmen performers in his first major camp. He showed the performance in Atlanta was no fluke while in Baltimore. McBride was among the top defenders at the 2015 Five-Star Challenge and he has put himself high on the list of linebacker candidates for the 2016 Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge.
OLB
Dylan Moses
Baton Rouge (La.) University Lab
Moses attended the 2014 Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge as a running back and he attended Rivals Camps in New Orleans and Hattiesburg in 2014 and Atlanta in 2015. He is a veteran of the Rivals Camp Series and he has been a standout as the running back MVP at both New Orleans and Atlanta. He was invited to the 2015 Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge before an injury forced him to pull out at the last minute. He is a five-star prospect at linebacker, and a strong candidate to be the nation's top overall prospect.
OT
Josh Myers
Miamisburg (Ohio)
Myers may not have a history with the Rivals Camp Series, but that does not mean he won't in the future. If he does attend a camp, it is safe to say he could quickly make himself a strong candidate for the Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge in 2016. The Ohio State commitment has firmly established himself among the nation's top 2017 offensive line prospects, and he showed very well against the top competition at the Under Armour Elite 50 camp in January.
ATH
Lamont Wade
Clairton (Pa.)
Wade spent his time at defensive back in Baltimore and he turned in a stellar performance. He was one of the top performers at the Columbus Rivals Camp in 2014 and he put together another strong showing at the Cleveland Rivals Camp in the spring. It did not take long for Wade to show he was one of the best defensive backs at the 2015 Five-Star Challenge, and he firmly planted himself as a strong candidate for the 2016 Challenge.
OT
Jedrick Wills
Lexington (Ky.) Lafayette
Wills took full advantage of his Five-Star Challenge opportunity in 2015. He shied away from no one and he proved himself to be among the top offensive linemen in Baltimore regardless of classification. His Five-Star Challenge performance came on the heels of an MVP performance at the St. Louis Rivals Camp in early May. It is safe to say Wills has stepped squarely into the spotlight and it does not look like he will be going away any time soon.
DT
Marvin Wilson
Houston (Tex.) Episcopal
Wilson attended his first Rivals Camp in Dallas in March and he quickly caught attention thanks in large part to his tireless effort. He received his invitation to the Five-Star Challenge shortly after his strong performance, and he put together one of the most dominating performances of a strong defensive line group. Wilson is currently a four-star prospect, but he made a strong case for five-star status, and he established himself as a strong candidate for the 2016 Rivals100 Five-Star Challenge.
