Colorado hosted two highly-rated blue chips over the weekend. Pinson (Ala.) Clay-Chalkville four-star offensive lineman JacQawn McRoy made it to Boulder. The Oregon commit was joined by fellow four-star athlete Drelon Miller from Silsbee (Texas). The duo took in the sights of Boulder and met with Coach Prime.

McRoy respected the entire process and how Deion Sanders said he was trying to get them NFL ready. He'll have to flip from Oregon to join the "Prime Effect" at CU. 

“(Prime) was pretty straight forward," McRoy told 247Sports. "He said you want to go to the league he’s going to treat you how you need to be to go to the league. I like that."

The 6-foot-8, 365-pounder has a massive frame with outstanding athleticism either end on the line. McRoy display good footwork and is quick with his hands. Don't be surprised if he's an All-American at some point in the future.

Colorado can use the skillset McRoy brings to the table. He can be a weapon at either tackle spot and brings passion to the way he plays. It's a rare combination to have at the next level

As for Miller, he fits perfectly into Sanders mold of a two-way standout. He's a beast on offense, playing receiver, running back, and Wildcat QB. He also plays in the secondary and returns kicks. Miller's football IQ is vast with an all-around approach.

Miller has entertained many offers after earning a spot in the All-American Bowl, but remains undecided. He would be tremendous asset for CU on both sides of the ball. He's a very high four-star and rated as the No. 12 player from Texas. Sanders was built to coach talents like Miller. 

Colorado has less than 24 hours before the transfer portal opens back up. Coach Prime and his staff will be addressing needs on both sides of the ball before early Signing Day on Dec. 20.
