He’s that talented. Look for Williams to play a significant role offensively as well in the Fall.</div> <div></div> <div>2.[player_tooltip player_id="28833" first="Darrius" last="Clemons"] 6-3 195 Westview<strong> OFFERS: Alabama, Oregon, Notre Dame, Michigan, Penn St 30+ </strong>One of the most recruited athletes ever to come out of Oregon. His (4.37) 40-yard dash time solidified the decision for some of the nation’s best to extend an offer. This next fall he should absolutely dominate his competition.</div> <div></div> <div>3.[player_tooltip player_id="28840" first="Kaden" last="Ludwick"] 6-5 245 DE Clackamas <strong>OFFERS: Colorado, Washington St, Nevada, Idaho-</strong> As stated numerous times already, Ludwick could end up as the top player in the 2022 class collegiately.

He could very well be the state’s top football player as well if that’s what he chooses to pursue. His film speaks for itself. The kid is special.</div> <div></div> <div>5.[player_tooltip player_id="28842" first="Jacob" last="Newell"] 6-5 220 Thurston <strong>OFFERS: Arizona, Colorado St, Fresno St, Nevada, UNLV, New Mexico</strong> When all is said and done, I think Newell could be one of top TE’s ever to come out of Oregon. I would expect numerous PAC 12s and other top schools to be vying for his services after this off season.</div> <div></div> <div>6.[player_tooltip player_id="107623" first="Andrew" last="Savaiinaea"] 6-3 265 DE The Dalles <strong>OFFERS: Oregon, UCLA, Nebraska, Oregon St, Washington St, Cal-</strong> Savaiinaea broke out as a Sophomore putting together some dominant film while playing for Washington power Eastside Catholic.
