Roman Caywood Roman Caywood 6'4" | 215 lbs | DL Corner Canyon | 2024 State UT || WR || 6’4 || 215 || Corner Canyon High School || 2024
Caywood possesses an impressive frame that makes him one of the classes of 2024’s premier jump ball threats on the outside. 50/50 balls feel more like 80/20 when he’s the intended target. His vertical and large catch radius helps him haul in these tough catches. Caywood’s releases are textbook and help him win at every field level. He is fearless when running over the middle of the field and is tough to take down, racking up yards after contact. Caywood plays both ways, also shining at defensive end but despite so many snaps he never seems to ware down.
Braylon Parker Braylon Parker 5'9" | 160 lbs | WR Weber | 2024 State UT || WR || 5’9 || 160 || Weber High School || 2024
When Braylon turns on the burners, defensive backs can only watch as he flies past them for long touchdowns. He can take the top off the defenses and turn short throws into huge gains. Braylon possesses game-changing speed and can take ankles in the open field with his quick lateral movements. He wins at every field level with short routes and good hands. Braylon fights hard for every ball thrown his way and makes numerous contested catches. He should be in for a monster senior year.
Griffin Faamausili Griffin Faamausili 6'2" | 175 lbs | WR Westlake | 2025 State UT || WR || 6’2 || 175 || Westlake High School || 2025
Faamausili has great body control he uses to survive hard hits and break tackles to get a few more extra yards out of each catch and run. In addition, he does a good job getting his feet down on the sideline before being forced out of bounds. He has a large catch radius and an impressive vertical. Faamausili long arms help him make tough grabs and he does a great job concentrating on balls while they soar towards him. Faamausili has the chance to be one of the top pass catchers in the class of 2025.
Braxton Wilkerson || WR || 6’0 || 155 || Orem High School || 2026
Wilkerson does a remarkable job finding and sitting in the soft spots of zone coverage. Speaking of coverage, Wilkerson can beat press man or off coverage. He isn’t fazed when a defensive back gets in his face, and he doesn’t allow himself to be jammed at the line. Wilkerson does an excellent job tricking the defensive back into thinking he’s going one way before breaking back the other. In addition, he’s a physical blocker who will do wherever it takes for his team to get the win. Wilkerson could break out in the Tiger’s offices as soon as 2025.
