The 6-foot-3, 252-pound Cowart is strong and athletic and has shown the ability to dominate nearly every high school opponent he's faced - including game, camp and 7-on-7 settings. In fact, at the Rivals Five-Star Challenge Presented By Under Armour, he single-handedly helped his team to victory by winning the defensive line drills. He's already built like an NFL-ready linebacker and has four to five years to add to his frame before an NFL executive calls his phone on draft day.

Ramsey (N.J.) Don Bosco Prep
Feder is so big he looks like he climbs a beanstalk to get home after practice. He is every bit of his listed 6-foot-9 and has very little fat on his 305-pound body. On top of all of that he is incredibly strong and has excellent length. His quick feet and great aggressiveness will serve him well as he continues to learn proper offensive tackle technique.

The only reason Gustin managed to fly under the radar until the end of his junior season was because he moved from Idaho to Utah midway through his career. The 6-foot-5 Gustin could easily play defensive end at the next level and carries next to no bad weight. He's built like a college junior as things stand now and moves like a much smaller prospect.

An athlete who stands at 6-foot-2, 195 pounds usually screams "safety position." Yet, McFadden can run with the slot receiver types and stick to them like peanut butter and jelly, best demonstrated by his performance against Miramar receiver Jovon Durante in a game played earlier this season. The play called for an isolated one-on-one, Durante ran to the corner of the end zone, but there was McFadden to make a highlight-reel, one-handed interception to ice the game. That play also went viral on Vine.

Even in a group of top college prospects, Guice is a standout before a snap has been taken. Guice stands out at a rock solid 5-foot-11 and 215 pounds. He has a stout build and he has the ability to intimidate as soon as he steps off the bus. He already has a college build and the strength to go along with it. From his barrel chest to his powerful legs, Guice is easy to spot in a crowd.

OT
Apopka (Fla.)
An offensive lineman weighing 271 pounds, yet still a five-star, you ask? While there are plenty of offensive linemen surpassing the ideal 300-pound mark, here stands Ivey, a superior athlete who could find success at the next level at other positions, especially tight end. But he's proven to demonstrate exceptional technique against defensive ends and has time to add weight to his 6-foot-5 frame.

TE
Avon (Conn.)
Rarely do you find a tight end that is an excellent blocker that has maintained his athleticism and speed so that he can still be a major threat as a receiver. Clark has done just that and that's what has made him the No. 56 prospect in the country, just one spot behind No. 1 tight end Alize Jones. At 6-foot-5, 253-pounds, Clark has the size and strength to matchup with and successfully block any defensive end. He also has the quickness and explosiveness to beat any linebacker that tries to keep up with him, and his size and athleticism make it very difficult for any safety to cover him.

Greenbelt (Md.) Eleanor Roosevelt
How many players are able to come back from a broken ankle in the third game of their junior season to become the No. 41 player in the country going into their senior season? That's exactly what Prince has done. That setback allowed Prince to focus on his upper body strength and once he completely healed, his lower body strength quickly returned and is improving. The most impressive things about Prince are his size, flexibility and technique despite being forced to stay on the sideline. At 6-foot-6, 270-pounds, Prince has some of the longest arms in the 2015 class and he puts that great upper body strength to good use with those arms. While continuously strengthening his legs, Prince has maintained excellent flexibility. That helps him get lower than his opponents and gives him more leverage.

Haines City (Fla.)
Any time you have an athlete of James' capabilities, there's a war room-type battle between offensive and defensive coaches over which side of the ball he lines up on. He could be a dominant receiver. Maybe he could be even more of a dominant safety. Or corner. Maybe he could be the next Devin Hester in the return game. That's the decision Florida State will have to make.
