WPIAL Insider
<div>Having an above average trait can separate one player on a team from the next. We take a dive into some WRs in Western PA that do something very exceptional, and can be recruited at the D2 level. Here are 4 WRs to double check on in Western PA for D2 schools:</div>
<div></div>
<div>[player_tooltip player_id="27260" first="Dakari" last="Bradford"] - Western Beaver - 6’4 - 185: Athletic playmaker. Goes up and gets the ball. Is a basketball player as well. Tore his ACL in camp so didn’t play as a Junior but had some really good sophomore highlights. Good speed, good burst, and good hands. Shows ability to sink hips in a break and stack a DB to make a play. Big athletic target that can be deadly in the redzone.</div>
<div></div>
<div>[player_tooltip player_id="27390" first="Eric" last="Benson Jr"] - Central Catholic - 6’1 - 200: Good frame, long arms, good burst off the line. Decent at sinking his hips. Physical WR, great blocker. Doesn’t create separation as well and has suspect hands. Can make some defenders miss in the open field and has okay speed. Best football is ahead of him. Could develop into a big possession WR that can go across the middle.</div>
<div></div>
<div>[player_tooltip player_id="27389" first="T’Rek" last="Scipio"] - Woodland Hills - 6’0 - 155: Smooth Wr that makes contested catches. Great catch radius. Compeititor. Not great in and out of breaks, more of a vertical threat guy that will win his 1v1 situation. Doesn’t have a lot of routes in the tree down yet, but he can win a 1v1 battle o the outside anytime that ball is in the air.</div>
<div></div>
<div>[player_tooltip player_id="27385" first="Antonio" last="Epps"] - East Allegheny - 5’11 - 155: Decent speed and hands. Makes plays against poor competition. Can play RB, WR, or CB. Not as physical as you would want so probably an offensive player. A little stiff, good straight line speed</div>
