That combination of size, strength, and burst is a quarterback's nightmare! Vega Ioane, 92, Overall for wreaking havoc on the offensive line. Finally, former five-star recruit true freshman cornerback A.J. Harris comes in at No. 3, with a solid debut rating of 91 overall as a pedigree commit with a need to perform early and often.
