4. D’Marcus Hayes, Offensive Tackle

Offensive tackle D’Marcus Hayes is one name Georgia Bulldogs’ fans could be hearing early off the offensive line. Hayes is four-star junior college prospect out of Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. He ranks 15th overall, second by position and sixth in the state, according to 247 Sports.

The 6-foot-6, 320-pound prospect has all the tools to crack the starting lineup right away. Hayes enrolled in January and will be a junior in 2017. He highlights a good group of offensive lineman, something the Georgia coaching staff really put an emphasis on this recruiting cycle.

The Mississippi native chose Georgia over Auburn and Mississippi State. He fits a glaring need at the tackle position for the Bulldogs coaching staff. With his size, length and athleticism, Hayes could be in the starting lineup in no time. Enrolling in January will give him an opportunity to get acclimated to SEC play.
