The Auburn Tigers have made a couple solid signings this window in an attempt to dethrone LSU in the SEC West next year.

Gus Malzahn and the Tigers have signed two 4-star recruits, one on the offensive side of the ball and one on the defensive side.

Linebacker Desmond Tisdol is a 4-star recruit out of Wilcox County in Georgia. He doesn't necessarily have the size of traditional linebacker, but he should help Auburn's pass defense and play a vital role in coverage.

Ze'Vian Capers is a 4-star wide receiver out of Denmark High School in Georgia. Last season he hauled in 60 catches for 1,182 years and 11 touchdowns. At 6-foot-3, he's a larger receiver capable of winning jump balls and is a red zone threat.

In addition to these two players, Auburn had 21 recruits in the 2020 class sign their letters of intent.

The Tigers currently have the seventh-best recruiting class in the nation and the fifth-best recruiting class in the SEC.
