Minnesconsin Camp, Best I Saw: WRs/TEs Part 1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Use code Johnson30 for 30% off a new subscription to Prep Redzone!</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As is the usual, the WR group was well represented during the Minnesconsin Camp. Because of that there was also a ton of athletes who caught my eyes and ended up highlighted in my notes. To go along with those WR standouts, I also have a handful of TEs who stood out on the field with their work in the combine and one on ones. In total, there was 20+ standouts between the two positions, so we will be breaking this group into two articles. Let's get Part I underway.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["242424"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"My first standout of the camp was Centennial WR [player_tooltip player_id='242424' first='Ty' last='Burgoon']. Ty checked in at 5'10u0022 171 lbs. His combine numbers tell an intriguing story of the 2024 WR prospect. He ran a 4.58 in the 40, 7.09 L-Drill, and 4.44 pro agility drill. With those numbers, Ty checks off the speed and agility/balance boxes. The numbers translate to his tape as well. Burgoon carries his speed throughout his routes and that makes it difficult to DBs to play man coverage on him. It was also very noteworthy how well Ty tracked the ball in the air and found ways to adjust himself to be in position to come down with the ball.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6488fad029697"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["431418"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"For the second straight camp I came away impressed with the Iowa TE product. Kannon checked in at 6'2u0022 205 lbs, and tested well across the board. The number I want to focus on most is his pro agility time of 4.34. That was a number that holds up well against a lot of the RBs that attended the camp. It greatly represents what Bork has shown me on the field. He is an athlete that has already developed the flexibility, balance, and body control to be able to move, bend, and explode out of changes of direction with a natural ease. It has led to him being a fluid route runner as well. Kannon fits as an H-back type player who can be a difficult matchup for LBs.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6488fad029702"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["104984"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Every time Langdon hits the field he seems to improve his stock. Coming off a State Track appearance, Langdon checked in at 6'3u0022 188 lbs, ran 4.72, and broad jumped 9'6u0022. Nordgaard looks even better in action on the field. He is a smooth route runner with quickness off the line that catches DBs off guard. That quickness also stands out coming out of his breaks where the '24 is able to accelerate away from his DB. With the ball in the air Langdon is at his best. He tracks, adjusts, and attacks the ball in the air with the best of the best. His catch radius is all the way maxed out due to his soft hands. The West De Pere standout is only going to continue to see his stock rise.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6488fad029756"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["452186"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"One of the biggest breakout performers of the day was New Prague WR [player_tooltip player_id='452186' first='Sam' last='Helgestad']. Helgestad has a super long frame at 6'5u0022 that will be looking to fill out over time. Coaches had their heads turning during Sam's combine performance. He broad jumped one of the best jumps of the camp at 10'2u0022. He put up a 35.3u0022 vertical, and ran a 4.61 in the 40. Between the frame, speed, and power in his lower body Sam offers one of the largest target radius in MN, and arguably the Midwest. I'm excited to see what the impressive specimen puts on tape this fall.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6488fad0297a5"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["533177"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Hayden spent the spring being one of the top hurdlers in the state. Following his State appearance, Hayden switched his focus to football and showed out at the Minnesconsin Camp. He ran a blazing 4.5 40, jumped 9'5u0022 in the broad, and 35.1u0022 in the vertical. May uses that athleticism to hurt defenses all over the field. He can get downfield on go routes or posts. He is an effective route runner thanks to his balance and the burst in his legs. Hayden is also elusive in the open field.

He made it easy for me to do at the Minnesconsin Mega Camp. The 6'1u0022 175 lbs '24 put up some of the best numbers in the combine. He ran an elite 4.51 40, 10'2u0022 broad jump, and 36.3u0022 vertical jump. Zach is such an explosive WR. He stretches the field vertically with his elite speed and easily runs under the ball. Scher has shown the more nuanced parts of route running as well. He sets up DBs, gets them to bite with head fakes or double moves, and is able to play fast throughout his entire routes. A team is going to get a steal in the Watertown WR. He is still looking for that first offer, somehow.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6488fad029851"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["533170"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Denzel has seen his recruitment pick up steam recently with a roster offer from Oshkosh. Before that, the Thorp standout WR had himself a standout day at the Minnesconsin Mega Camp. The powerful, compact 5'11u0022 188 lbs WR proved to be an explosive threat out wide. He jumped 9'3u0022 and 37.4u0022 and ran 4.75. It was great to get some athletic numbers because on tape Denzel plays so strong that that part of his game sometimes overtakes the athleticism. The jumps do a great job of giving a glimpse into his lower body power that has made him very explosive out of his route breaks. It opens up a ton of space in the 8 man league for his QB to target. The Thorp WR helped his stock last week. He is a strong, athletic name to know.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6488fad0298a3"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Latrell Harrington","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'8u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2410","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Racine Case","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Latrell is a rising athlete to know in the WI Class of 2024 at the WR position. He is a 5'8u0022 152 lbs athlete who wins with burst/quickness. It is all over his film where Harrington wins with route running, body control, and short area explosion. He is a nightmare to cover man to man because of how quickly he gets through his route. We put some numbers on that short area explosiveness with a 9'7u0022 broad jump, 36.7u0022 vertical, and a 6.88 L-Drill. Once Latrell gets in the open field he does have the speed to create yards after the catch. He had a solid 4.68 40 yard dash during the camp.

On tape Tremaine shows that same efficient play style. The long strider eats up yards with deceptive speed. Tremaine's vision with the ball in his hands also gives him an advantage.

On tape you see that pro agility time show up. Hudson is able to get out of his routes quickly and maintains balance while doing so. The big WR is also a physical presence after the catch.
