Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase: WR Standouts

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>JAMESTOWN-- Time to meet our long list of wide receivers that stood out in our eyes at the Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase. The defensive backs had a lot of ground to cover with the depth of this group as I believe from an upside perspective there is plenty of next-level talent in this wide receiver group from Jamestown. From WR prospects just scratching their potential to some of the best route runners in North Dakota and Manitoba, this list was a fun one to show off to our Prep Redzone Dakotas subscribers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["951995"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":1122813,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"I loved watching the balance Logan brought to the table in the reps I watched at our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase. Even while dealing with higher traffic routes, Logan stayed on his line with sizable physicality when he grasped the ball into his hands despite being the biggest wide receiver in the world. This kid also showed off how athletic he was with his route-running in Jamestown. Logan is a two-way prospect to watch out of Berthold, ND and has position flexibility for those college coaches to know at the next-level as this kid's downhill presence on tape show off plenty of his football IQ too.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/LTommy23u0022u003eTwitteru003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["929809"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"According to my sources at Deuel, Oliver posted some of his best testing numbers in the 40-yard dash at our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase, and also had the best 40 yard dash time at 4.57 and 4.37 in pro agility amongst the massive wide receiver group we had in Jamestown at our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase. Oliver started his reps I watched last Sunday with plenty of finesse and long-versed fluidity with his agility he showed off. One of the developments Oliver can grow is the physicality he shows off on his routes, as he certainly has the change of direction to be a productive slot receiver at the next-level, but I believe improving his ball instincts will do him well this offseason with his growth. He also excels getting plenty of separation, as a Cardinal to watch in the 2026 class as we update our rankings here soon in South Dakota with verified numbers on the track that college coaches will want to keep seeing.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/ofieber8u0022u003eTwitteru003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["1113079"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"One of the longest wide receiver prospects overall at the Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase was South Prairie 2025 wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id='1113079' first='Jaxin' last='Anderson']. At nearly 6'4, Jaxin showed off some raw skillsets that have a high ceiling of growth this offseason. What stood out in Jamestown was his length of his catch-radius, as Jaxin showed room for development going thru the motion of bringing the ball full-circle to his chest with his hands. He also can develop his burst and agility thru his routes, but one thing that is certain is Jaxin has the football IQ to constantly know where the first down markers are as that shows on tape. He probably has one of the biggest ceilings amongst the wide receiver groups at our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcases.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["1112986"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"If there was one prospect that made the longest haul (nearly 7 hours) and made his long trip worth it, it was Oak Park (Manitoba) 2025 wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id='1112986' first='Marcus' last='Zaluski']. Talk about a prospect with excellent agility, I thought Marcus showed off some of the best agile movement from testing into Indy drills and later in 1v1s. He was a top tester in the wide receiver group with his L-Drill logging a 7.13 and a a consistent 4.4 on both reps in the pro agility drill. Marcus showed off to me right in front with his excellent balance he has around the sidelines as his instincts certainly excelled during my live evaluation of him during Indy. Marcus showed off great hands on every rep I watched, and I would expect him to get some exposure from the schools in attendance at the Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase and beyond in the coming months, as Marcus is a 2024 prospect in Canada (if he goes the U-Sports route) or a 2025 prospect in the United States as one I will be tracking with our Prep Redzone Canada site going forward.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/ZaluskiMarcusu0022u003eTwitteru003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["1047983"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Drake was a 2025 wide receiver prospect that I could feel with my conversations with college coaches last Sunday, that this kid is certainly on the rise on everyone's recruiting board, including mine at Prep Redzone Dakotas. Drake showed off a 6'2 175 pound wide receiver that had an instinctive downhill release off the snap that trended with smooth separation especially on intermediate and deep routes on Sunday in Jamestown. The athleticism he showed off with his hands and the long-strides he showed off to his advantage to stretch the field certainly was why he was one of our top wide receivers last weekend at our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase. Drake is up for a big time bump to our 2025 North Dakota rankings, as this young man shows off a scholarship-level fit at the next level.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/DrakeSchlosseru0022u003eTwitteru003c/au003ernrnu0026nbsp;","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["670031"],"_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":1122838,"_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":"A name that I had circled prior to our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase was Warner 2026 WR/ATH [player_tooltip player_id='670031' first='Jesiah' last='Baum'], who showed off tons of electric skillsets that I watched especially in the Warner Monarchs state championship run. The instinctive nature that Jesiah showed off with his route-running was the first skillset that popped out and anytime a prospect shows that off consistently throughout one of our showcases, that is a  great sign for their football future. Not only did Jesiah have the instinct, but the fluidity I engaged in is what put him on my 1st Team All-Camp Team from Jamestown. At 5'8 155 pounds, Jesiah plays way bigger than his size, and showed the change of direction with his testing numbers too that shows off his ceiling as just a sophomore. Yet another stockriser from this WR group in Jamestown that you will see jump up our 2026 South Dakota rankings.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/jbaumer_4u0022u003eTwitteru003c/au003ernrnu0026nbsp;","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["506330"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_player_featured_image":1122858,"_player_evaluations_6_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"In now his 3rd Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase, Teagan continued to raise his skillsets higher in Jamestown last Sunday. Where I thought Teagan has improved over the season and our last showcase is with the versatility of his football IQ. While watching his route-running, Teagan excelled with the speed of his vision from what I watched from Indy drills, as you can tell the game has slowed down for him over the years of the evaluating him. He also was quick with seeing the open field faster from the reps I watched. Teagan is one of my favorite prospects in the Dakotas with his outstanding character and certainly shows off a demeanor for the next-level of a prospect that will do absolutely anything to benefit his team, as Teagan also has an elite amount of position flexibility to bring a college program.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/TeaganCoonrodu0022u003eTwitteru003c/au003ernrnu0026nbsp;","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_7_player":["944403"],"_player_evaluations_7_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"Ian might have been the smallest wide receiver at our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase, but man did this young man shine in my eyes with the physicality he showed off showing way bigger than his measurables. He was not phased either by the size of the competition he went up against in 1v1s, he just put his head down and went to work, showing good bases of separation with his agility and quick hand to rotate the ball to his chest. Ian also shows on tape a prospect that has some upside to be  a contributor in the return game, as he showed off his speed with a 4.72 40 yard dash time which caught my eyes as well from this West Fargo product. He also has verifiable track numbers, which showed off an 11.1 100 yard dash times from last Spring.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/ian_skariu0022u003eTwitteru003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_8_player":["1113084"],"_player_evaluations_8_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"Ryder showed that he is a 2027 WR prospect to know out of Bismarck with some of the catchy testing numbers he put up at our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase in Jamestown. The one that checked out the most in my eyes was his production in the L-Drill and his pro agility which showed off the fluidity and the finish that I saw with his burst in my eyes. If he can hit the weight room hard this offseason, this 5'11 2027 wide receiver can certainly raise his ceiling, as a WR prospect that showed off some quick growth from the reps I watched from him in Jamestown.rnrnu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/Rydermorehouseu0022u003eTwitteru003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_9_player":["174165"],"_player_evaluations_9_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_9_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_9_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_9_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_9_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_9_evaluation":"Last but not least, we meet our WR MVP from West Fargo Horace 2024 wide receiver Gavin Olson, who you can find out more about his rising skillsets here from our u003ca href=u0022https://prepredzone.com/2023/12/gamechangers-meet-the-mvps-from-the-prz-dakotas-showcase/u0022u003eGameChangersu003c/au003e article on all of our MVPs from the Prep Redzone Dakotas ShowcaStill uncommitted and very under the radar.","_player_evaluations_9_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":10,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6583b1d09973c"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>More WR Prospects to Know:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"fontSize":"medium"} --> <p class="has-medium-font-size"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1113071' first='Caleb' last='Haas'], WR, West Fargo Sheyenne (ND) 2025 <a href="https://twitter.com/CalebHaas06">Twitter</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Caleb showed off impressive change of direction in his pro agility, with a 4.52 top time.
