The later signing day is approaching, and the state of Arkansas still has a number of wide receivers that have not signed a national letter of intent.

Blackburn uses his size well to go up and high point the football. He has the speed to create separation from opposing defensive backs. One area that tends to get overlooked is that Blackburn is strong enough to break tackles and he has the ability to cause plenty of headaches in the passing game. He is a player with the potential to perform well on Saturdays in the future. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="75110" first="Kannon" last="Bartlett"]-Vilonia-6’0” 175-Pounds</strong> Had the opportunity to see Bartlett on two occasions and both times the opposing defense had a difficult time accounting for him this season. Bartlett uses his speed well to get open and he rarely drops passes. Bartlett had almost 1,200 yards receiving this season and found the end zone 15 times through the air. Bartlett is the type of player that can cut an opposing defense to shreds on Saturdays, college scouts should take a long look at the talented Vilonia wide receiver. <strong>Justin Logue-Farmington-5’8” 150-Pounds</strong> The Farmington wide receiver had a strong 2021 season. Logue is a player that just knows how to get open. He does a great job of running his routes and creating separation from the opposing defensive back. Logue hauled in 54 receptions for 842 yards and 10 touchdowns. Logue has flown under the radar; however, he is another wide receiver that can be dangerous when put in the slot and allowed to work underneath. Logue is a prospect that has the potential to be dangerous on Saturdays in the future. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="92904" first="Jackson" last="Cox"]-McGehee-6’1” 175-Pounds</strong> Cox is one prospect that has worked on his speed and has become a prospect that numerous schools are recruiting for the wide receiver position. Cox uses his speed to create separation from opposing defensive backs. He is the type of wide receiver that is always working his way back to the quarterback. Aside from the receiving perspective, he is willing to do the dirty to get his teammates a lane to take it the distance. Cox is another talented wide receiver that scouts, and teams are going to want to touch base with this recruiting period. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="165832" first="Charlie" last="Barker"]-Pulaski Academy-6’1” 175-Pounds</strong> The Pulaski Academy wide receiver always seems to be creating an explosive play. Barker has good speed and does an excellent job of separating from the defensive back using his speed. He is the type of wide receiver that does not drop passes and is a threat in the red zone. However, Barker is a threat to take it the distance from anywhere on the field. He is the kind of player that coaching staffs can put in the slot or kick him outside to stretch the field. Barker is another player that would perform well on Saturdays in the future.
