Auburn is on quite a bit of a run when it comes to elite defensive ends huh? What started in 2013 with the commitment of Carl Lawson, No. 4 in the country, continued in 2015 with Byron Cowart, the nation's No. 1 player, and now with Marlon Davidson (pictured above) in 2016, the nation's No. 8 player. So has a team ever recruited national top 10 defensive ends in three out of four recruiting cycles? The answer is never, not ever. Now we still have two more rankings cycles left in the 2016 class so there's a chance Davidson could slide out of the top 10 and ruin my point, but there's also a chance he could move up into the top five and make this even more astonishing. Time will tell on that one and I am very high on him - think Marvin Austin athleticism playing outside (and yes that's a huge compliment despite Austin's troubles after high school). -
