Top 100 for 2012 in Louisiana

Sonny's Top 100 in Louisiana for the class of 2012

Rank	Previous	Name	High School	Pos.	Size
1	1	Landon Collins	Dutchtown	S	6-0/202
Collins will make an instant impact at either LSU or Bama
2	2	Torshiro Davis	Woodlawn	DE	6-3/220
Davis has the speed and explosiveness to play DE or LB at LSU
3	3	Denzell Devall	Bastrop	DE	6-3/240
Like Torshiro Davis, Devall could play DE or LB for Bama
4	8	Ronnie Feist	West St. John	OLB	6-2/230
Feist will get a jump on learning John Chavis' system in January
5	6	John Thomas	Airline	TE	6-5/245
Thomas missed his entire senior season but rehab is ahead of schedule
6	7	Lamar Louis	Breaux Bridge	ATH	5-11/215
The only question with Louis is will he end up at RB or LB in Baton Rouge?
7	4	Lorenzo Phillips	Patterson	OLB	6-2/205
Phillips had another banner year for the Lumberjacks despite dropping a few spots
8	5	Dwayne Thomas	O.P. Walker	CB	6-0/175
The opposition rarely threw at Thomas but he still picked off four passes
9	12	Derrick Raymond	East Jefferson	CB	6-0/165
Raymond is raw but the speedster has a high ceiling with his length and athleticism
10	9	Davante' Bourque	Crowley	RB	6-2/205
Size and speed are two of Bourque's biggest attributes but he's a good all-around RB
11	16	Derek Edinburgh	Edna Karr	OT	6-8/315
Edinburgh has worked hard in the weight room and could be a star down the road
12	20	Travin Dural	Breaux Bridge	WR	6-2/175
Dural made one of the biggest jumps in our rankings with a sensational senior year
13	13	Jerald Hawkins	West St. Mary	OT	6-6/280
Hawkins is versatile enough to play several positions but his future is on the o-line
14	22	Deion Jones	Jesuit	OLB	6-2/215
This class is loaded with LB's and Jones proved he is one of the best
15	19	James McFarland	West Monroe	OLB	6-1/240
McFarland's motor never stops and he was the leader on West Monroe's defense
16	11	Dillon Gordon	John Curtis	TE	6-5/250
Gordon is a terrific in-line blocker and has the body to see early playing time at LSU
17	27	Alonzo Moore	Winnfield	ATH	6-2/195
Moore was one of the top players at the state championships and could play WR or DB
18	23	Otha Peters	Covington	OLB	5-11/215
Peters is one of the hardest hitting LB's in this class
19	10	Darion Monroe	East St. John	CB	5-9/170
Size is the biggest question mark with Monroe but he has excellent cover skills
20	18	Jerqwinick Sandolph	Hahnville	S	6-1/200
Sandolph is physical and has a good combination of size and speed
21	21	Kavahra Holmes	Breaux Bridge	WR	6-2/170
Holmes is a big-time deep threat with his blazing speed
22	46	Jacoby Briscoe	Carencro	DT	6-4/285
The knock on Briscoe was that he took too many plays off but he was steady in 2011
23	24	Trey Granier	Thibodaux	MLB	6-2/230
Granier is smart and instinctive in the middle
24	17	Terrell Lathan	West Monroe	DE	6-3/245
Lathan has all of the potential in the world but is too inconsistent
25	15	Julien Obioha	Brother Martin	DE	6-3/235
Obioha didn't have the senior year to support his early ranking but has a bright future
26	25	Bryan Singleton	Destrehan	DT	6-3/255
Singleton is one of two Destrehan DL headed to Houston
27	33	Devon Breaux	Donaldsonville	ATH	6-0/180
Most project Breaux as a WR or CB if he ends up at Tulane
28	29	Lloyd Grogan	Central Catholic	OLB	6-1/200
Grogan could be a terrific safety or linebacker at the next level
29	30	Tylor Harris	Episcopal	DE	6-3/255
Harris backed up his spring and summer on the camp circuit with a good senior year
30	28	Daniel Taylor	Lutcher	RB	5-9/170
What Taylor lacks in size he makes up for with speed and quickness
31	48	Gerron Borne	East St. John	DT	6-2/290
Borne's senior season quieted some of his critics including myself
32	32	Jordan Batiste	Lutcher	CB	5-8/170
Batiste is the top cover corner in the state and only lacks height
33	34	Torrey Bell	John Curtis	DE	6-4/225
Bell can be a good rusher off the edge but can he add the weight to play in the SEC
37	NR	Alex Johnson	Carencro	RB	5-10/185
Johnson led the state in rushing as a senior and is headed to a juco
35	44	Ryan Brown	Archbishop Shaw	DE	6-4/240
Brown will take his pass-rushing skills to Starkville
36	40	Kentrell Brice	Ruston	CB	6-1/185
Brice formed quite a tandem for Ruston along with Cyril Noland
37	31	Alex Paul	Newman	OT	6-4/305
Paul gives a solid tackle prospect with good feet
38	38	Tyree Bracken	White Castle	RB	5-10/215
Bracken enjoyed a stellar career at White Castle
39	42	Quadry Antoine	Belle Chasse	S	5-9/215
Antoine is one of the biggest hitters in this class
40	NR	Brandon Wilson	Calvary Baptist	RB	5-11/185
Wilson stayed healthy all year and proved to be one of the top backs in North La.
41	NR	Jarrell Bennett	Edna Karr	WR	5-9/165
Bennett is a big playmaker and could put up huge numbers in the right scheme
42	41	Trevon Stewart	Patterson	CB	5-11/185
Houston landed a good all-around athlete in Stewart
43	39	Sydie London	St. Augustine	WR	6-3/205
If basketball didn't take up so much focus with London he could be really special
44	47	Raymond Jackson	O.P. Walker	WR	6-3/215
Speed is a question with Jackson but if he grows into a TE then that won't be an issue
45	36	Royce LaFrance	Helen Cox	LB	6-3/220
LaFrance is big and versatile in the middle
46	NR	Melvin Davis	Edna Karr	S	6-0/195
Karr has plenty of FBS-caliber players on defense and Davis is a good one
47	37	Jalen Richard	Peabody	RB	5-9/185
Richard is on pace to recover from a torn ACL and someone will get a dynamite back
48	49	Jaydrick Declouet	Patterson	WR	5-9/170
Declouet may put up huge numbers for the Houston Cougars
49	50	Cyril Noland	Ruston	S	5-11/185
Noland is one of those players that coaches love to have
50	NR	Jalen Nixon	Carencro	ATH	6-2/225
Nixon played QB for Carencro but LB or TE is his future
