Wynn's short, stout, powerful build and mobility make his NFL future at guard, but his versatility has helped him meet the team's need at left tackle. He was a second-team All-American and first-team All-SEC selection in 2017, starting all 15 games on the outside to lead the way for the team's excellent running backs and protect freshman quarterback Jake Fromm. Wynn was a four-star recruit and top-10 guard prospect nationally out of Lakewood High School in St. Petersburg, Florida before joining the Bulldogs. He played in 11 games as a true freshman, starting once as a second tight end. Wynn began his sophomore year at the left guard spot, starting eight games there before moving over one spot to his left for the remaining five games. The transfer of Tyler Catalina from Western Carolina to Georgia forced Wynn to slide back to the left guard spot in 2016, where he started 12 times (missing one game due to injury).

Michel (pronounced ME-shell) is the son of Haitian immigrants who found jobs after their son gained fame for his play at the high school level (he began carrying the ball for American Heritage High as an eighth-grader). The USA Today Florida Player of the Year as a senior, Michel was rated among the top 20 recruits in the country. He got work as a true freshman (64 rush, 410 yards, five TD; 7 receptions, 106 yards, TD), playing in eight games and gaining a start in the Belk Bowl against Louisville. Michel was the team's Offensive MVP and earned the Charley Trippi Most Versatile Player Award as a sophomore by running for 1,161 yards and eight scores on 219 rushes and 270 yards and three touchdowns on 26 receptions. The hits kept coming in 2016, as the team captain ran behind his pads, broke ankles and accelerated into the open field on his way to 840 yards and four scores on 152 carries (22 receptions, 149 yards, one TD). Michel won Offensive MVP award in the Liberty Bowl win over TCU by gaining 87 rushing yards and 39 receiving yards while scoring twice. Though he started only two games in 2017, scouts saw his immense potential in 14 contests; Michel ran for 1,227 yards on just 156 totes, an outstanding 7.9 yards per attempt, and scored 16 times on the ground. He also showed his wiggle and power on nine receptions covering 96 yards and a touchdown for the SEC champions.

Even though Cross City, Florida is closer to Gainesville (51.6 miles) than Tallahassee (97.1 miles), Dawson and his father rooted for the Seminoles growing up. FSU, Alabama, and others couldn't match Florida's push for the first-team All-State defender, however, so rooting interests were set aside. Gators coaches got Dawson on the field right away, playing him in 11 games with one start at safety as a true freshman (14 tackles, interception). He played in every game as a reserve in 2015 (10 tackles, forced fumble) before starting seven games as a nickel back (24 tackles, 3.5 for loss, one interception, led the Gators with seven pass breakups)--waiting to turn to be a full-time starter after corners Jalen Tabor and Quincy Wilson depart for the NFL. Dawson got his chance in 2017, garnering first-team All-SEC honors by starting all 11 games, collecting 34 stops, two for loss, a team-high four interceptions and nine pass breakups. His strong, compact build makes him an excellent tackler and his hand-eye coordination allows him to knock away passes at the last second.

Sam was coming off an excellent sophomore year when lining up for the first game of the 2016 season. Unfortunately, a foot injury suffered in that contest shut down his campaign after just one tackle. He rehabbed that injury and returned to garner honorable mention All-Pac-12 honors in 2017, leading the Sun Devils with 127 tackles, 9.5 for loss, three sacks, and two pass breakups. That sophomore season saw Sam compile 98 tackles, 6.5 for loss, an interception, and two pass breakups in 13 starts. Sam started at Allen High School for two straight state titles and was a top-30 linebacker recruit when signing with ASU. He played in 12 games as a reserve, making 16 tackles, one for loss, an interception, and one pass breakup.

Berrios' smallish frame and unassuming statistical lines in his first three years with the Hurricanes kept him under the scouting radar. His 2017 season, however, puts him squarely in line for a shot in the NFL. He was a third-team All-ACC pick after leading the Canes with 55 catches for 679 yards and nine scores, as well as returning 13 punts for 207 yards. Berrios was a four-star prospect out of Raleigh before arriving at "The U" and did start four of 12 games played in his first year (21-232, three TD receiving: 4-20 punt returns). His production dropped in 2015, partially because he missed two-plus games with injury (12 receptions, 86 yards; 11 att., 45 yards on punt returns). Berrios started three of 13 games as a junior (12 receptions, 232 yards, two TD) but became even more of a threat in the punt return game (19 att., 215 yards, one score).

Etling began his career at Purdue, signing up as a four-star recruit and Elite 11 participant from California. Coaches got him on the field as a true freshman, playing him in eight games and starting him in the final seven; he completed 55.8 percent of his 267 passes for 1,690 yards, 10 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. Etling faced competition in his sophomore season from Austin Appleby, losing his job after going 2-3 to start the year (54.9 percentage, 800 yards, six touchdowns, five interceptions). After that benching, Etling decided to transfer to LSU, where he practiced with the scout team in 2015. Again he was the taking over early in the season as a junior, leading the Tigers to a 7-3 record and Citrus Bowl win. Etling completed 59.5 percent of his throws (160-of-269) for 2,123 yards, 11 touchdowns against five interceptions. He started all 13 games in 2017, completing 60 percent of his throws (165-of-275) for 2,463 yards and 16 touchdowns. Etling threw just two interceptions all season.

Former FSU Head Coach Jimbo Fisher snatched Izzo from New Jersey, where the likes of Wisconsin and Boston College were looking to ink the football and basketball star. After redshirting in 2014, Izzo started 11 of 13 games played the following fall (14 receptions, 210 yards, two touchdowns). Much of his sophomore campaign was spent making room for 2017 NFL Draft pick Dalvin Cook, but he was found 19 times for 227 yards in the passing game, scoring once. The Seminoles' passing game struggled in 2017 after Deondre Francois went down in the opener, so Izzo's statistics were not impressive for 13 starts (20 receptions, 317 yards, three touchdowns). But he had built strength on his tall, lean frame throughout his career in order to play in-line as well as make an impact in the passing game with reliable hands, good agility, and tough running.
