9. Jonathan Ledbetter

The red teams defense was dominant during the G-Day Game and one of the squads most dominant players was Ledbetter. Georgia will have one of the best front-sevens in the nation this year and Ledbetter will be a big reason why.

During the game, he had 1.5 tackles for a loss for 13 yards including one sack of 10 yards. He terrorized Jacob Eason and helped shut down Brian Herrien.

We knew going in that Georgia’s front-seven should outperform the offensive line, but we didn’t thank that they would obliterate them. If that unit dominates like that in the regular season, Ledbetter will have himself a fantastic year.
