This is yet another dead period ranking of position-specific Southeastern Conference football commits that will look much different/better come national signing day.

Brandon Jones (Nacodoches, Texas) and Deontay Anderson (Manvel, Texas) are ranked No. 1 and No. 3 respectively per 247Sports Composite rankings for the class of 2016. Both could be SEC-bound (Jones to Texas A&M, Anderson to Ole Miss or Texas A&M).

The nation’s No. 4 safey prospect, Nigel Warrior (Suwanee, Ga./Peachtree Ridge), is high on Tennessee, Alabama and Georgia, so it’s a safe bet that the U.S. Army All-American could end up in the league as well.

Looking at the current top five SEC safety commits, it’s clear that LSU, which currently has the nation’s second-ranked recruiting class, continues to recruit at an elite level in the secondary as the top two prospects are committed to the Tigers.

1. Eric Monroe, LSU

The Houston (Texas) North Shore product is yet another Lone Star State secondary prospect that the Tigers have crossed the border and snatched. The nation’s second-ranked safety prospect is a ball hawk and is physical against the run. Monroe is an Under Armour All-American.

2. Cameron Lewis, LSU

The 6-foot-1, 182-pound Lewis, from Monroe (La.) Wossman, is yet another outstanding safety prospect committed to the Bayou Bengals. Lewis has good range and is a good enough tackler to make plays in the box.

3. Marlon Character, Auburn

Character, from Atlanta (Ga.) Grady, previously was committed to South Carolina as a cornerback before flipping to the Tigers. The versatile prospect has excellent ball skills and is very good against the run.

4. Jaewon Taylor, Florida

The Gators have plucked a couple of prospects out of Alabama this cycle and Taylor, from Montgomery (Ala.) Park Crossing, could be a steal. On film, he shows everything you want in a safety and is an excellent evaluation/developmental addition to this cycle’s Florida class.

5. Ikenna Okeke, Texas A&M

The Aggies dipped into the Nashville area and landed Okeke from Smyrna (Tenn.) High and they’ve got a good one. To go that far out-of-state for a safety prospect, they must see something in this prospect that they like. When you watch the film you understand why. Okeke is the No. 10 overall prospect in the state of Tennessee this cycle, a testament to the improved talent depth in that state.
