<p><strong>ED O.B.'s QUICK THOUGHTS</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Jermaine Smith had a "quiet" month during May when it came to offers. If he's on the camp circuit in the upcoming months, that'll change quickly. [player_tooltip player_id='1644118' first='Bryce' last='Smalls'] is someone who has seen his recruiting stock go up another notch in his early career. Cornerbacks with [player_tooltip player_id='1419182' first='Ryan' last='Drakeford']'s ability and length at his age are hard to come by. Drakeford will be a double-digit offer guy before July. If [player_tooltip player_id='959451' first='RJ' last='Cruz'] camps in the upcoming months, his stock will skyrocket even more. Cruz keeps a low profile, but he is an absolute beast on the field. I think [player_tooltip player_id='1134909' first='Japhya' last='Rouson']'s recruitment will continue to be a slow burn. I expect Rouson's stock to rise even more as he camps in the upcoming months.</p>
