Notable 2024 Wide Receivers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With high school football season fast approaching, fans are eagerly anticipating the start of "talkin' season" and the preseason projections that come with it. For many seniors, this is a crucial time as they prepare to showcase their talents and attract offers to play at the next level. Among the players to keep an eye on are several versatile wide receivers from across the state who are poised to make a big impact this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='762620' first='Dylan' last='Greer'] | West Memphis</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='762620' first='Dylan' last='Greer'], who is 5-10 and weighs 165 pounds, is determined to build on his impressive 2022 stats of 41 receptions for 894 yards and 7 touchdowns (21.8 yards/catch). Greer's catch radius is truly remarkable as it extends beyond his wingspan. Moreover, his ability to make contested catches is at a top-tier level. Although he is often utilized as a deep threat in the West Memphis offense, Greer's skills in running short and intermediate routes are also noteworthy. He demonstrates a polished technique in executing stick routes, and he has a quick transition when changing direction to throw defenders off balance. With offers from Henderson State and North Alabama, Greer has the potential to garner more attention if he manages to achieve a 1,000 yard senior season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Omar McCuiston | East Poinsett County</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Omar McCuiston, standing at 6-2 and weighing 150 pounds, is a prime example of an "alpha" receiver for the EPC Warriors. His exceptional athleticism allows him to make those critical catches that turn the tides of any game. He is a reliable target for his team, and his ability to convert any 50/50 ball into a highlight reel catch is a testament to his skills. Despite his lean build, McCuiston's aggressive mindset and towering height give him a significant advantage over smaller defensive backs, allowing him to position himself effectively. He has received an invitation to participate in the Class of 2024 Tiki Bowl in Hawai'i, which speaks to his potential to make a significant impact this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='739029' first='Tauri' last='Brogdon'] | Hot Springs</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>During this spring and summer session, [player_tooltip player_id='739029' first='Tauri' last='Brogdon'] has been quite busy, receiving offers from Southeastern Missouri (SEMO), Northwestern Missouri State, and division 1 UT-Martin. Brogdon has also recently visited UAPB and UCA. With his 6 foot 1, 170-pound frame, Brogdon displays exceptional footwork in his route patterns, making defenders look foolish even without the ball in his hands. He builds up a substantial YAC from his determination to break tackles, which he relentlessly fights through. Brogdon's competitive nature is evident from his film and how he approaches each play, as seen in his tenacious blocking style on the outside of the formation.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='825889' first='Peyton' last='Presson'] | Greenwood</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In 2022, [player_tooltip player_id='825889' first='Peyton' last='Presson'] (6-2, 180) was a dependable target for Greenwood, acting as a safety blanket close to the line of scrimmage. Despite regularly taking on contact, he consistently finished receptions with impressive concentration skills in traffic and while getting jostled from behind. Although not the fastest player on the offense, Presson's reliability and competitive nature make him a trusted option in crucial situations, earning the trust of his play-caller in dire offensive situations. These qualities are highly valued at any level of play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
