(Alabama)

Just a beast of a linebacker with range and smarts.

 

3.  DT Terrence Cody (Alabama)

A mammoth defensive tackle can stop a running attack all by himself.

 

2.  LB Brandon Spikes (Florida)

Probably the best linebacker in the country, Spikes has everything you look for.

 

1.   S Eric Berry (Tennessee)

Second to none with both his hitting and ball instincts from the defensive back position.

 

10 Most Underrated Players

10.  LB Chris Marve (Vanderbilt)

Just a sophomore and just getting going, Marve shows great potential.

 

9.  DE Rahim Alem (LSU)

In and out of the starting line-up over the years, Alem is ready to display his supreme rushing ability on the end.

 

8.  DE Chris Walker (Tennessee)

Walker will prove to be an outstanding rush lineman with his quickness and hands.  Also could have picked fellow D Lineman Dan Williams here.

 

7.  LB Dont'a Hightower (Alabama)

Overshadowed by his teammate McClain, Hightower can rush the passer and play against the run both extremely well.

 

6.  CB Myron Lewis (Vanderbilt)

Lanky cornerback played in the shadows of D.J. Moore but is now poised to show off his exceptional cover skills

 

5.  WR Randall Cobb (Kentucky)

Cobb can and will throw, run and pass for the Wildcats as he is invaluable to his team.

 

4.  WR Shay Hodge (Ole Miss)

Dependable receiver for the Rebels gets overshadowed by other flashy ball catchers in the league but he is the active career leader in receptions, yards, and touchdowns.

 

3.  DT Malcolm Sheppard (Arkansas)

Versatile performer has a great work ethic who had 6.5 sacks last year.

 

2.  WR Gerald Jones (Tennessee)

Has not had the production yet because of lack of a good quarterback, but Jones is super elusive in the open field and catches the ball better than most.

 

1.  LB Eric Norwood (South Carolina)

Overlooked with the vast talent of linebackers in the league, Norwood might just end up being the best of them.  Fierce, fast and formidable.
