In this story:

The Texas A&M Aggies are looking to find a way to replicate the success found last season, which was capped off by the program's first-ever appearance in the College Football Playoff.

One of the ways to capitalize on that success is using the momentum on the recruiting trail, causing a snowball effect, and helping head coach Mike Elko have the talent on the roster to reload every off-season, rather than rebuild.

The Aggies have done exactly that, holding the No. 1-ranked recruiting class in the country, and now they are adding even more talent to the top class as they have landed a commitment from Damani Warren, one of the most intriguing receiving prospects in the cycle.

What Makes Warren A Top Recruit

Warren is ranked as the No. 37 pass-catcher in the class, and is a top 300 prospect in the country. Standing at 6-foot-4, 210 pounds, he has a clear height advantage over defensive backs, using that to his advantage, and has shown that he isn't afraid of contact at the point of attack when going up to make a catch.

He isn't known for his blazing top-speed, but he more than makes up for it with a great initial burst off the line of scrimmage, and acceleration that helps him create space from defenders. Warren knows how to use his frame and put himself in advantageous positions, showing great body control and sturdy hands to make him one of the top contested catch receivers in the cycle.

Warren is still raw from a developmental point of view, but his frame and physical attributes make him a potential game-changer down the line.

How Warren Impact the Aggies Roster Outlook

The newsroom for the Aggies is one of the most homegrown in the country, only adding one transfer option in Isaiah Horton, to go along with a deep room of returning talent. That's to say that the offense will most likely lose their top two options, Horton and Mario Craver, to the NFL draft at the seasons end, and will have holes to fill.

There are plenty of options on the roster, and the Aggies already have two other receiver commits, with potentially one more slated to join the class as well. Finding early playing time won't be easy for Warren, but because of his frame and skill-set, it sets him apart from the other options and there could be a path to early rotational minutes.
