"I like the tradition at Auburn and the competition in the SEC. They also have some defensive linemen leaving, so I'd have a chance to go in and play early.
"Rutgers has an even stronger chance for me to play, and I like my position coach a lot. He's done a good job recruiting me."
Sims (6-4, 280, 4.8) also has offers from Ole Miss, N.C. State, Florida and Ohio State, among others. He is rated the No. 20 defensive tackle in the nation by Rivals.com.
As a senior, he recorded 65 tackles, 20 tackles for loss and 12 sacks.
