PRZ Next Southeast Camp: Most Physically Impressive Prospects

Earlier this month, hundreds of the best middle school players across the south gathered in Atlanta for an intense day of competition. There were numerous very impressive prospects at the event, but there were a few who looked and played like grown men. It will be interesting to watch how these players develop over the next few years, but as of now, they are already incredibly gifted when it comes to their physical traits. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="283827" first="Darryl" last="Rivers"]</strong> - 2026 - 6'4 - WR/TE - Georgia It is only appropriate that we start with possibly the biggest player at the event, at least as far as skill position players are concerned. Standing at 6'4 238,  Rivers presents a matchup nightmare for any defense he goes up against. To go along with his eye-opening build, he is a fluid runner that can eat up grass with his long strides. While he is a bit raw, his size alone makes him a candidate to be a big-time player in the future. Once he becomes a little more twitchy and learns how to use his god-given traits, the sky is the limit for Rivers. <strong>Zelus Hicks</strong> - 2026 - 6'2 - DB - Georgia Hicks has already been mentioned for his showing earlier this month, but he deserves another mention. When you look at Hicks, you would think he is already in CFB with his frame. At 6'2 with long arms, he already possesses the ideal size and traits of a division 1 corner. Oftentimes, kids at that age with that kind of length lack speed or the ability to change direction, but not Hicks. He is already an incredibly polished player with some serious speed, which was showcased with a 4.7 40-yard dash time. Hicks has already been on major D1 campuses for visits recently, which is not shocking at all. If he can continue to grow while maintaining his speed and athleticism, Hicks is set to become an elite recruit on the trail. <strong>Dylan Cope</strong> - 2026 - 6'3 -  WR - Alabama Like Hicks, Cope was such an impressive prospect that he deserves another mention. Cope instantly created a buzz when he measured in at 6'3 before the camp started, and didn't disappoint under expectations. When you look at Cope, you can't help but notice his long frame. His longer legs allow him to get downfield and create separation from defenders while his long arms allow him to go up and high point the ball over defenders. As I've said before, Cope has that elite combination of size and speed that colleges crave, and it will be very fun to see how his recruitment unfolds because of that. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="681152" first="Bryce" last="Perry-Wright"]</strong> - 2026 - 6'3 - DL - Georgia Perry-Wright was another prospect that already had a buzz around his name before the event even started. Measuring in around 6'3 230, Perry-Wright is a big-time defensive line prospect that carries no bad weight. From a pure strength standpoint, you would have to imagine that he is an absolute force when the lights come on. But at the camp, he shocked with his bend and athleticism coming off the edge. There aren't many prospects at that age and position that flash D1 potential, but Perry-Wright definitely does, which is evident by recent visits to Georgia Tech. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="283859" first="Jayreon" last="Campbell"]</strong> - 2026 - 5'11 - RB - Georgia I heard plenty about Campbell during the event, and once I saw him for myself, I began to understand the hype. At 5'11, he is yet another prospect that is built like a D1 player at his position. He has a long frame which allows him to be a fluid runner, but he also has a thick upper body which allows him to run through defenders and break off arm tackles. While that couldn't be showcased during the event, his explosiveness leads me to believe he is not easy to bring down. On top of his explosiveness, he is also extremely light on his feet. Campbell should be a breakout player on the recruiting scene in due time. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
