8. Brandon Peters, QB, Michigan
The four-star QB enrolled at UM in January, getting an early start with Jim Harbaugh's program. He's got great size at 6-foot-5 and an arm that can make any and every throw from the pocket. He came into Ann Arbor ranked as the #61 player in the nation.
7. Demario McCall, APB, Ohio State
The #44 overall recruit and #2 all-purpose back in the class, McCall uses his lack of size to his advantage -- burning through and around defenders while cutting and changing directions on a dime.
6. Shane Simmons, WDE, Penn State
Simmons is a huge get for Penn State's defense, providing edge rushing and the ability to seal the edge while pushing runners to the sideline. He's ranked as the #41 overall player and #4 weak-side defensive end for this cycle.
5. Ben Bredeson, OT, Michigan
Bredeson is a beast at 6-foot-5, 293 pounds. He's almost impossible to move when he sets his feet, and that'll only be more apparent when he begins his weight-lifting program in Ann Arbor. He comes in as the #39 overall player and #5 offensive tackle in the nation. More from the Michigan football recruiting trail inside the Chat Sports iPhone and Android apps!

3. Michal Menet, OG, Penn State
