Safety and LB, Okudah and Drew Singleton would be a great finish to an already impressive top 10 class

Xavier McKinney seems like a great fit plus...

Ideal height and weight at 6-1 192. He was here for the UofL game and that must've made a good impression, or so one would think. And he's a teammate of Tiger commit LeAnthony Williams.
Wouldn't mind also picking up somebody like a Markquese Bell or perhaps even Davondre Robinson as another option as well. Both are very athletic and can certainly make plays but adapting to that position (S/DB) at this level can prove difficult- see Mark Fields. Really a stretch but getting a commit from Devon Hunter would suffice as well.
Drew Singleton would be icing on the cake. That would be great. He's got a banged up knee right now but it wouldn't appear as if we'd need him to play the first snap next year so-to-speak.
Since I'm greedy, gimme another elite WR like Nico Collins. Huge stretch, not gonna occur but fun to think about. Same with landing OL Tedarrell Slaton.
And while we're WAY out on a limb, go ahead and sign up 2018 QB Trevor Lawrence, RB Zamir White, RB Devon Lawrence, WR Brian Hightower, ATH Derion Kendrick, TE Mustapha Muhammad, OT Nana Asiedu, OL Jamaree Salyer, DL Justin Mascoll, DL Josh Belk, DE Stephon Wynn Jr, LB Dax Hollifield and DE Xavier Thomas for next year.

Craziest part of that 2018 class is that's mostly quite possible...KJ Henry more likely than Mascoll, Salyer is a very tough pull but we're good with Ohonba right now, and don't think we're pursuing Hollifield as much as Teradja Mitchell and Jake Venables as the takes there. Talk about an elite class...

Need an elite OT but not happening, need at CB has been filled; needs at safety will be filled by some combo of Bell, McKinney, Avery, Okudah; need at LB should be filled by Singleton; need for DE mostly filled by Williams with 1 other possible take (we're at/near the top for 4 top 70 DEs next year)
