4. Christopher Henderson, 4-star CB (Miami, Fla.)
Yet another cornerback on the list. Obviously, a school that has two projected first-round picks in the 2017 NFL Draft will have no problem reeling in talent in the defensive backfield. Christopher Henderson, a four-star from Miami, has a final three of Alabama, Florida and Miami with the Gators leading the way.
Henderson committed to the Hurricanes back in February of last year but reopened his recruitment back in October. The chances of him committing to the Hurricanes again seems slim at this point, given that he has been high on the Gators over the past couple of months.
In fact, he officially visited Florida on Jan. 20 and could be nearing a decision that would give the Gators their next elite corner. The 2017 class does have some talented prospects committed at the position such as Elijah Blades, Marco Wilson and Shawn Davis.
The four-star from Miami is listed as the No. 116 overall prospect and No. 17 cornerback in the 2017 class, according to 247Sports. He’s one of the top-rated uncommitted prospects left in the class and could be the fourth big-time cornerback prospect to sign with the Gators — if Blades doesn’t de-commit.
Having the last official visit definitely gives the Gators the upper-hand here.
