Yes. Both McTelvin Agim and Austin Capps are in our ESPN Jr. 300 rankings. Initial player evaluations are done off sophomore film and will again be evaluated with full, more detailed player assessment when junior season is completed. Early impressions for both players are very strong. Agim is a physical, big guy who can anchor a defense and has a quick first step, but a bit straight-lined. As a result he is a stand-up rusher at times -- hybrid OLB/DE 'tweener with nice speed. He must continue to improve hand usage and must continue to develop as a coverage drop guy. With Capps, as a defensive tackle he is a powerful guy who is tough to move off the ball. He is more of a space-eater and two-gap player with a powerful first punch. He needs to be cautious of leverage, but is difficult to block one-on-one. Capps is a stout presence as a 300-pounder who is more advanced as a run-stopper than pass-rusher, but can collapse the pocket.
