On Sunday, December 5th, we ventured out to Elkhorn, Wisconsin, and the campus of Elkhorn High School for the third stop on the Stock up Showcase Tour. The event featured about one hundred and fifty prospects, plenty of which were hidden gems. The event was split into two sessions, the second of which featured quarterbacks, wide receivers, and defensive backs. Below, we analyzed the top WR & DB performers from session two!

<em><strong><span style="font-size: 24pt;">WR's</span></strong></em>
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="118358" first="Cameron" last="Gray"], Milwaukee Academy of Science, 2025</strong>
An extremely talented route runner with some serious change of direction skills. Gray can make defenders looks silly in a phone booth and was fantastic against competition that was two-three years older than him.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="104494" first="Connor" last="Doyle"], Oconomowoc, 2023</strong>
A crafty route runner that can lull defensive backs to sleep with route tempo before quickly accelerating past them. Doyle showed strong hands, precise double moves, and good build-up speed downfield.
<strong>TE: [player_tooltip player_id="245979" first="Emmanuel" last="Stoffel"],</strong> <strong>Milwaukee Academy of Science, 2022</strong>
A physical tight-end prospect who can work all three parts of the field. Despite being a bigger guy, Stoffel can comfortably drop his hips at the top of his route and work back to the quarterback. He was extremely dependable during 1 on 1's and made some tough contested catches.
<strong>Quinton Henry, Bradford, 2022</strong>
Henry showed off some nasty press releases and seemed to beat defensive backs almost instantly. He uses agile feet, quick hands, and subtle head fakes to give defenders false illusions. To me, he was the most complete wide receiver at the camp.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="105027" first="Tyler" last="Williams"], Waukesha South, 2024</strong>
A shifty slot receiver who excels in 1 on 1 situations in space. Williams bursts off the ball, immediately threatening defenders, getting them to open their hips early before he easily shuts it down. He's got his best ball ahead of him; look for his production to jump in a big way as a junior.
<strong>TE: [player_tooltip player_id="240999" first="Luke" last="Schuler"], St. Joseph, 2023</strong>
I think luke has a very ceiling as a pass-catching tight end at the next level. He moved exceptionally well during 1 on 1's and gave defensive backs some issues with his acceleration & pure size. He understands how to use his body and will box out corners running hip to hip with him before going up & high pointing the football.
<strong>WR: [player_tooltip player_id="118328" first="Christian" last="Crump"], Bradford, 2022</strong>
A productive, quick prospect that was a serious threat on vertical concepts. Crump can separate from corners at the top of his route and showed a big catch radius, despite being a smaller prospect. He plays fearless and is willing to go after any ball no matter where it's placed.
<span style="font-size: 24pt;"><em><strong>DB's</strong></em></span>
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="146560" first="Ian" last="Andrews"], Eau Claire Regis, 2024</strong>
A quick-footed cornerback prospect that loves press coverage. Andrews ran stride for stride with wideouts during 1 on 1's and refused to let his competition beat him inside. He's a fighter all the way and showed excellent body control.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="245957" first="Aiden" last="Burrell-Warfield"], Indian Trail, 2023</strong>
Aiden looked put together in person and had massive quads for a defensive back. He showed a fierce off-hand jam and calm footwork during 1 on 1's. He was poised during the "make ya miss" competition and, time & time again came to balance easily tagging off on opposing ball carriers.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="245937" first="Caden" last="Healy"], Colby, 2023</strong>
A long, rangy safety prospect with great ball skills. Healy ran well in the 40-yard dash clocking a 4.63 on his first attempt. He was outstanding during individual displaying tight breaks and proper leaping ability. I think this young man has a very high ceiling based on his size and god-given athleticism.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="245943" first="Aidyn" last="Vondra"], Brodhead, 2023</strong>
Another speedy prospect who went 4.60 in the forty-yard dash. Vondra showed a clean backpedal, relaxed hips, and excellent deep ball tracking. His feet and hands work in unison in press coverage as he patiently waits for a wideout to declare his release.
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="245955" first="Drew" last="Weis"], Burlington, 2023</strong>
A smooth mover that I think could have potential at corner or safety. Drew ran well, clocking a 4.66 40 yard dash, and translated that speed over to 1 on 1's very well. He played with disciplined eyes and fluid lateral movement skills.
