In this series, Nebraska has 3 of the top 10. Those are Ameer Abdullah, Todd Peat, and Charles Jackson.

On No. 10 Ameer Abdullah: "He finishes higher on the list than Aaron Green because of his ability to pound the ball through the tackles and his pass receiving skills. At 5-foot-9, 177 pounds, Abdullah seems small but he's built, especially in the legs. He flew under the radar until last summer, when he became an unqualified star at a variety of camps. As a senior in Alabama, he was spectacular, rushing for 1,795 yards, and catching 26 passes for 561 yards. Tack on four return touchdowns, and it's easy to see why USC and Auburn put on late pressure to grab Abdullah. He stuck with the Huskers, however. "

On No. 8 Todd Peat Jr.: "The upside on this kid could be higher than any defensive tackle in the 2011 recruiting class, and he's headed to a program that knows how to develop great defensive tackles. The 6-foot-3, 300-pounder has freakish athleticism. He appeared to get bored, frankly, in high school, and it showed in some inconsistent performances. He throws offensive linemen and ball carriers like rag dolls, spinning them to the earth with violence and ease. His frame is such that he can redistribute some of his weight to make him more effective against the run. Peat's high school film bears an uncanny resemblance to Ndamukong Suh, another inconsistent, occasionally-bored player in high school.

On No. 7 Charles Jackson: "No. 7 Nebraska cornerback Charles Jackson: He plays the position like he loves to live on the edge. He challenges every receiver. Trusts his instincts won't fail him when he makes a break on the ball. Tackles well. Although a bit undersized at 5-11, 180, Jackson's vertical leap and catch-up speed make up for it. It's rare that high school cornerbacks come to college ready to play out of the chute. But Jackson can – and he just might."

I was more impressed with Abdullah's film than Green's myself. Abdullah reminds me of the running style of Rozier. It would be awesome if he can achieve similar heights.

I think Heard will be the best of the 3, personally

I just can't tell who's the fastest of the group because people speed up highlight clips... Until we see them play live or in person, I don't know how we can tell. The one with the most hype is obviously AG...

Even though Lendale White is an idiot off the field, I wish Braylon Heard would turn out to be as talented as White. Thing is, they are two different kinds of runners. Heard might be a bit shiftier, but is about 50 pounds lighter.
