Has it seemed like everyone thus far in our nine-part series previewing Georgia's early enrollees is in line for early playing time?

That's certainly the case with offensive lineman Cade Mays.

The former five-star prospect is already learning what it takes to compete in the SEC, and if you believe position coach Sam Pittman, is someone Bulldog fans can expect to see in the lineup sooner rather than later.

The native of Knoxville, Tenn., plays with a bit of a mean streak and that's something offensive line coaches like Pittman simply love.

In Mays, Georgia is getting a player who goes about his business with a high motor, and despite being as young as he is, plays the game with excellent technique.

As the nation's 19th overall player and the top player in Tennessee according to Rivals, it's easy to project Mays having quite the career for the Red and Black.

We touched on it above, but Mays is expected to make an early impact for the Bulldogs.

According to Pittman, Mays has already been told he's going to get the opportunity to compete with Isaiah Wilson for the starting job at right tackle, so this will be something that bears watching once spring practice gets underway in March.

Although the final verdict probably won't come in until sometime during fall camp, there's every reason to expect that Mays will put himself in position to at least be part of the two-deep for Georgia in 2018.

Being that he's a redshirt freshman, Isaiah Wilson has the leg up when it comes to winning the starting job at right tackle.

However, Pittman obviously sees something in Mays considering his announcement prior to the National Championship against Alabama that the Tennessee native would be given an opportunity to compete for the starting job.

Nobody's ruling Mays out by any stretch, but even if he doesn't win the job, he'll be in line for early playing time as a key part of Georgia's two-deep.

He may even get a look or two at left tackle behind Andrew Thomas. Regardless of what happens, Georgia got itself a good one.
