Leading 5A in receiving yards, the Kennedy senior has been nothing but efficient and electric all year. He is more of a tempo route runner that doesn't necessarily beat you with speed but can easily set you up to create some major separation. He is quick in and out of his cuts, precise in his timing and he knows how to high point the ball and win at the catch point. Whether playing on the outside or moving to the slot, I would label him as an explosive possession receiver, who pretty much can be your safe blanket but also the guy you want to take a shot with.rnrnrnrnPlay-style: Explosive Possession/Deep ThreatrnrnStats: 54 receptions, 898 receiving yards, 9 touchdownsrnrnu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/14924609/Cyrus-Courtney/highlightsu0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/14924609/Cyrus-Courtney/highlightsu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":1063347,"_player_evaluations_1_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"Carson Robbins","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"2410","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"Southeast Polk","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_1_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_1_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"I think Robbins needs more recognition for his game. The Rams' senior is the second leading receiver on the team but perhaps the most agile and twitchy out the group. He understands defenders leverage then exploits them, he knows how to create major separation and is just a smooth route runner. While he consistently switches between the outside and the slot, I think Robbins will be perform exceptionally well in the slot at the next level. He just has that natural ability to find open spots in zone and be very successful in your short to intermediate pass game.rnrnrnrnPlay-style: Explosive Technical SlotrnrnStats: 33 receptions, 558 receiving yards, 7 touchdownsrnrnu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/12808733/Carson-Robbinsu0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/12808733/Carson-Robbinsu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":1063344,"_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1278273' first='Sam' last='Zelenovich']","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"2410","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Southeast Polk","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Zelenovich is the other half of the SEP duo that torments secondaries, the junior is an explosive play-making deep threat.

However on the flip side, a  program may grab him and simply get him faster which may even be more dangerous. Either way, the Mount Vernon product will continue to be a problem for defenses as he grows. Brase is just an exciting receiver to watch. At 6'4 the catch radius he possess is electrifying, as he has made a highlight reel of catches over the season. He has good body control when the ball is in the air and knows how to win at the catch point. He has some of the best hands on this list and arguably is one of the best redzone targets as well.rnrnrnrnPlay-style: Playmaking Flex-Y/Big ReceiverrnrnSeason Stats: 43 receptions, 821 receiving yards, 8 touchdownsrnrnu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/11832304/Evan-Braseu0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/11832304/Evan-Braseu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["247960"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_player_featured_image":1063299,"_player_evaluations_5_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Rodman is a receiver who just knows how to get open and make plays.

The Norwalk senior plays with a gritty and tough attitude that allows him to outplay the man in front of him. His awareness is perhaps some of the best as he is very good in scramble drill when recognizing  the pocket collapsing and finds room to make a play.

The Ankeny product is another prospect who just can make circus catches all day due to his ball skills and catch radius. He also has some long striding speed that allows him to work downfield and be an efficient deep threat. Where he shines is being productive with contested catches. His length and physical traits allow him to be very effective in this aspect of the game.  I think Akers will excel at receiver at the next level once he just adds some weight and gets adjusted to the speed of play.rnrnrnrnPlay-Style: Match-up Nightmare/Deep ThreatrnrnSeason Stats: 36 receptions, 744 receiving yards, 7 touchdownsrnrnu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/15966169/Devon-Akersu0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/15966169/Devon-Akersu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_8_player_details_selected_featured_image":1063233,"_player_evaluations_8_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_8_player_details_player_name":"Richard Stewart ","_player_evaluations_8_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_8_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_8_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_8_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_8_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_8_player_details_position":"2410","_player_evaluations_8_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_8_player_details_school":"Sioux City East","_player_evaluations_8_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_8_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_8_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_8_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_8_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"Stewart is another play-making deep threat on this list.

He only has time to develop his skill set and Miller could perhaps be a name that'll start popping up on radars.rnrnrnrnPlay-style: Speedy Playmaking SlotrnrnSeason Stats: 60 receptions, 804 receiving yards, 12 touchdownsrnrnu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/16019599/dallas-milleru0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/16019599/dallas-milleru003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_11_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_12_player":["320791"],"_player_evaluations_12_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_12_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_12_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_12_player_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_12_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_12_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_12_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_12_evaluation":"Madlock is a burner. The kid is a big play waiting to happen. Along with exceptional speed, the senior has some serious explosiveness to him. When he gets going, he uses his strides which allow him to easily eat up cushion. He releases off the line very fluently and precisely which  shows he knows how to create separation. Madlock also has the ability to start and stop out of his routes quickly and effectively. He is a receiver that can flip between playing in and outside at the next level with his ability.

Snyder plays bigger than he looks and brings that edge with him. He shows the capability of being a precise route runner with having some routes look better than others.  Make no mistake though, he has some nice speed that allows him to get behind defenses and he has some good catching ability. He's also shown some run after the catch ability when receiving screens and short routes. Snyder can be a productive on the outside at the next level, it would be nice to see what he can do in more of a pass heavy or multiple scheme.rnrnrnrnPlay-style: Possessive PlaymakerrnrnSeason Stats: 32 receptions, 464 receiving yards, 3 touchdownsrnrnu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/14929491/Max-Snyderu0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/14929491/Max-Snyderu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_13_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_14_player":["208615"],"_player_evaluations_14_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_14_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_14_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_14_player_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_14_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_14_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_14_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_14_evaluation":"Explosive, three-level play-maker and vital piece in one of the most efficient offensives in the state.
