Was thinking about doing a reranking later this summer for the 2016 in-state class after we took a look at those kids in early spring. After getting a chance to see a ton of them at the last three Wisconsin camps, I decided to reexamine my top 20.
1) OL Ben Bredeson - Clear-cut favorite. Probably headed to Michigan.
2) OL Cole Van Lanen - Expect him to commit to Wisconsin. Not a huge gap between him and Bredeson, IMO.
3) LB Tristian Pipp - Hearing he will not play his senior year after undergoing a shoulder surgery.
4) OL Sam Heckel - Tons of offers. Was good at Wisconsin's camp but maybe not what the staff is looking for.
5) DT Tyler Biadasz - Great camp and his film is very impressive. I think he'll be good.
6) OL Spencer Kanz - Also performed well at camp but is headed to Western Michigan.
7) LB Mason Stokke - Saw him at camp. I think Stokke's a better player with full pads on, not in coverage drills.
8) OL Mike Caliendo - Thought an offer was coming for him. A little smaller but good feet, moves well.
9) QB Nathan Stanley - I've never seen him live and I haven't seen any film. But Chryst still wants him.
10) DL Trayvonn Johnson - He's been really quiet but he stood out at camp Sunday. Could play DE or DT.
11) DE Luke Benzschawel - Headed to Wisconsin. Still has some work to do but a great frame and body.
12) DE/OT Josh Mueller - Didn't look good when working at OT, which is where some schools project him.
13) LB/TE Kritstian Welch - Didn't shine at Wisconsin's camp but just picked up an offer from Iowa.
14) RB Toren Young - Committed to Iowa. I question if he's fast enough to play RB in the Big Ten.
15) RB/ATH Blair Mulholland - Injured right now but a great athlete. Could play all over the field.
16) OT Zeke Gueths - Super high ceiling. Very athletic. I think he'll be a good college OT.
17) QB/ATH Max Meylor - Very good athlete. Wants to play QB in college. Could also play WR/HB.
18) TE Conor Edmonds - Thought he performed well at camp and looked very good physically.
19) OL Airon Servais - Worked at both OT and DE at camp. Just getting comfortable with both positions.
20) DL Colin Sabel - Big body and a hard worker on the line.
