Video: Damon Payne highlights Nation's No. 1 defensive tackle in action as a junior.
An abundance of talent is still up for grabs in Michigan as five of the state's top six prospects are undecided.
One thing that's not in question is the Great Lakes State's deepest position. Michigan is dominant on the line. Of the state's Top 50 prospects, 24 are offensive (15) or defensive (nine) linemen.
The other stacked spot? Defensive back with nine.
Not surprisingly, Michigan State and Central Michigan are among the leaders with four commits each. Somewhat shockingly, Northwestern and Toledo also have four commits each. Penn State ranks second (three), while Michigan, Pittsburgh and Western Michigan each have two.
See the complete Top 50 as compiled by 247Sportsbelow.
