One of the top defensive ends of the 2017 class is giving strong consideration to playing in the SEC.

Jarez Parks, a four-star weak-side defensive end from Sebastian River (Fla.), dropped his latest Top 8 on Twitter Thursday. He’s rated the No. 50 national prospect and No. 4 Florida recruit in the 2017 class according to 247Sports‘ composite rankings. The site’s Crystal Ball predictions show the home-state Gators as the apparent leader (83 percent), but Alabama, Auburn and LSU are among the other seven teams seen in the above graphic.

Parks, who has 32 total scholarship offers, has been busy lately, taking visits to Auburn, Alabama and FSU in the past week.

Junior highlights for the 6-foot-5, 255-pound pass-rusher can be viewed below:
