Prediction: Isaiah Campbell

Isaiah Campbell, DL

A young, moldable player with good burst and size, Cambell is currently eyeing North Carolina, Clemson, Tennessee, Alabama, and Auburn.

247Sports' Director of Scouting Andrew Ivins said of him, "Overall, should be viewed as a scheme versatile point-of-attack defender that can slow down the run and add some value as a pass rusher. Could take a major step forward after a developmental year or two in a college strength program. Sunday upside if he can keep progressing."

The site lists UNC and Tennessee as the two schools Campbell is warmest toward, but there is no clear indication of which he favors. If proximity proves to be significant in his decision-making process, the Durham native could choose to stay put and play for his home state Tar Heels.

Prediction: Campbell signs with North Carolina

Prediction: Jahkeem Stewart

Jahkeem Stewart, DL

The 54th-ranked recruit in the world and ninth at his position, Stewart is nicknamed "Thanos." According to 247Sports, Stewart has made visits to Oregon, USC, LSU, and Ohio State.

A young, potentially explosive defensive lineman whose development will be key, he has "encouraging technical awareness" and "overwhelms overmatched opponents," per Gabe Brooks. He has the potential to be a "serious NFL Draft candidate" and any team will be lucky to have him on the defensive line for the next three or so years.

On3's Steve Wiltfong predicted the Trojans would land Stewart. If so, he has a potential to be an anchor on that defense for his entire collegiate career.

Prediction: Stewart signs with USC
