DESCRIPTION
11 Tyler Scott While the comparison to T.Y. Hilton might raise some eyebrows, Scott is a similar player in body type, speed and versatility. With just two seasons of starting experience at receiver, his route running and ball skills are almost certain to continue to improve and become less of an issue for him in the future. He has the speed and shiftiness to uncover on all three levels. Also, he offers jet sweep and receiver screen value. 10 Jalin Hyatt: Hyatt is a wide receiver for the Tennessee Volunteers. He is a speedy receiver with good hands and route-running ability, and was a four-star prospect coming out of high school. In his freshman season in 2020, Hyatt caught 10 passes for 176 yards and 2 touchdowns, and showed flashes of his potential as a big-play receiver. He is expected to be a key part of the Volunteers' offense in 2021. 9 Rashee Rice: Rice is a wide receiver for the SMU Mustangs. He is a speedy receiver with good hands and route-running ability, and was a three-star prospect coming out of high school. In his freshman season in 2019, Rice caught 24 passes for 464 yards and 3 touchdowns, and was named to the AAC All-Freshman team. In his sophomore season in 2020, Rice caught 36 passes for 719 yards and 5 touchdowns, and was named a Second-Team All-AAC selection. He is expected to be one of the top receivers in the AAC in 2021. 8 A.T. Perry: Perry is a wide receiver for the Wake Forest Demon Deacons. He is a big-bodied receiver with good hands and route-running ability, and was a three-star prospect coming out of high school. In his sophomore season in 2020, Perry caught 27 passes for 471 yards and 5 touchdowns, and is expected to be a key part of the Demon Deacons' offense in 2021. 7 Michael Wilson: Wilson is a wide receiver for the Stanford Cardinal. He is a big-bodied receiver with good hands and route-running ability, and was a three-star prospect coming out of high school. In his sophomore season in 2020, Wilson caught 23 passes for 233 yards and 1 touchdown, and is expected to be a key part of the Cardinal's offense in 2021. 6 Nathaniel Dell: Dell is a wide receiver for the University of Houston Cougars. He is a speedy receiver with good hands and route-running ability, and was a three-star prospect coming out of high school. In his sophomore season in 2020, Dell caught 29 passes for 428 yards and 4 touchdowns, and is expected to be one of the top receivers in the American Athletic Conference in 2021. 5 Josh Downs: Downs is a wide receiver for the North Carolina Tar Heels. He is a quick and shifty receiver with good hands and route-running ability, and was a four-star prospect coming out of high school. In his freshman season in 2020, Downs caught 16 passes for 271 yards and 3 touchdowns, and is expected to be a key part of the Tar Heels' offense in 2021. 4 Jordan Addison. Inside/outside wideout with the speed and agility to work confidently on all three levels of the field, but lacking the size and catch strength generally associated with high-impact performers on the next level. Addison’s route running features acceleration, dynamic steering and sudden turns at a moment’s notice. While he can get to the spot effectively, he has trouble consistently winning battles when he has coverage company beside him. While Addison failed to make the same impact he did in 2021, his usage at Pitt might be a better indicator of the type of role and production he could be capable of on the next level. 3 Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Smith-Njigba is a wide receiver for the Ohio State Buckeyes. He is a precise route runner with good hands and excellent body control, and was a consensus four-star prospect coming out of high school. In his freshman season in 2020, Smith-Njigba caught 20 passes for 194 yards and 2 touchdowns, and is expected to be a key part of the Buckeyes' offense in 2021. 0:00-0:22: Introduction and Tyler Scott 0:22-1:47: Jalin Hyatt 1:47-2:44: Rashee Rice 2:44-3:26: A.T.
