Sometimes having an elite teammate at the same position is a boon for a college prospect. The attention that the teammate receives frees the second prospect up to show of his ability and make an impact he might not if he were the primary focus of the other team.

If evaluators are concentrating on the elite prospect, they might ignore or at least not focus on the less-highly regarded player.
That second scenario seems to have happened to defensive lineman Marlon Davidson out of Auburn.
