2022 Rankings Risers: Wide Receivers

<i>Taking a look at the senior wide receivers that climbed PRZ’s latest 2022 rankings including in-state signee [player_tooltip player_id="186983" first="Jayden" last="Davis"]. </i> <b>[player_tooltip player_id="141947" first="Louis" last="Brown"]- WR, Inglewood</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Brown was a valuable weapon for one of California’s top QBs [player_tooltip player_id="25247" first="Justyn" last="Martin"] and the Inglewood offense. He’s a talented vertical threat with a D-I combination of speed, concentration and body control. He’s a smooth athlete that can create separation with natural speed over the top and creative routes underneath. Brown will likely follow head coach Jay Norvell to Fort Collins after flipping his commitment from Nevada to Colorado St. on December 14th.</span> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">COMMITTED‼️<a href="https://twitter.com/InglewoodSports?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@InglewoodSports</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/premiumsportsla?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@premiumsportsla</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachJayNorvell?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachJayNorvell</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachChadSavage?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachChadSavage</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/Coach_TChang?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Coach_TChang</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/GregBiggins?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@GregBiggins</a> <a href="https://t.co/zs4ID9V02o">pic.twitter.com/zs4ID9V02o</a></p> — LB4🏁 (@Louis4Brown) <a href="https://twitter.com/Louis4Brown/status/1470793116273688584?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 14, 2021</a></blockquote> <a href="http://blockquote%20class=twitter-tweetp%20lang=en%20dir=ltrCOMMITTED‼️a%20href=https://twitter.com/InglewoodSports?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@InglewoodSports/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/premiumsportsla?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@premiumsportsla/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/CoachJayNorvell?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@CoachJayNorvell/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/CoachChadSavage?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@CoachChadSavage/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/Coach_TChang?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@Coach_TChang/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/GregBiggins?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@GregBiggins/a%20a%20href=https://t.co/zs4ID9V02opic.twitter.com/zs4ID9V02o/a/p—%20LB4🏁%20(@Louis4Brown)%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/Louis4Brown/status/1470793116273688584?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwDecember%2014,%202021/a/blockquote%20script%20async%20src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js%20charset=utf-8/script"><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></a> <b>[player_tooltip player_id="186983" first="Jayden" last="Davis"]- ATH, Bullard</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Davis was an athletic two-way standout at WR and DB for Bullard this season. He possesses elite ball skills at both positions and proved to be a dangerous playmaker as a deep threat and with the ball in his hands. He shows quick acceleration off the LOS and instincts finding space in coverage particularly in scramble drills.

He’s extremely effective operating out of the slot creating separation off the line showing agility and acceleration. He has the speed to burn defenses over the top and shows balance and elusiveness with the ball in his hands making him an extremely difficult player to tackle in space.

He has great technique with his releases off the LOS and shows strong hands and toughness catching in traffic over the middle.

He showed versatility in the La Jolla offense this season catching over 60 passes, taking carries out of the backfield, returning kicks, and scoring 13 total TDs. He’s a tough and balanced ball-carrier who bounces off tackles and utilizes a nasty stiff-arm. He shows great ball skills and concentration going up over DBs and making plays over the top. Smith has picked up offers from Southwest Minnesota St., Black Hills St., Benedictine, and Adams St. since November.</span> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="und">💪 <a href="https://twitter.com/Makai_21_Smith?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Makai_21_Smith</a> 💪<a href="https://twitter.com/GregBiggins?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@GregBiggins</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/adamgorney?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@adamgorney</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/BrandonHuffman?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BrandonHuffman</a> <a href="https://t.co/XzgDjU978v">pic.twitter.com/XzgDjU978v</a></p> — Tʜᴇ sᴘᴏʀᴛs ᴄʀᴇᴡ (@TSCSports) <a href="https://twitter.com/TSCSports/status/1426549759796342792?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 14, 2021</a></blockquote> <a href="http://blockquote%20class=twitter-tweetp%20lang=und%20dir=ltr💪%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/Makai_21_Smith?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@Makai_21_Smith/a%20💪a%20href=https://twitter.com/GregBiggins?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@GregBiggins/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/adamgorney?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@adamgorney/a%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/BrandonHuffman?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw@BrandonHuffman/a%20a%20href=https://t.co/XzgDjU978vpic.twitter.com/XzgDjU978v/a/p—%20Tʜᴇ%20sᴘᴏʀᴛs%20ᴄʀᴇᴡ%20(@TSCSports)%20a%20href=https://twitter.com/TSCSports/status/1426549759796342792?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwAugust%2014,%202021/a/blockquote%20script%20async%20src=https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js%20charset=utf-8/script"><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></a> <b>[player_tooltip player_id="187262" first="Sam" last="Mikaele"]- WR, Bishop Diego</b> <span style="font-weight: 400;">Mikaele brings a tough, physical skillset to the WR position.
