Tristan Anderson Tristan Anderson 6'3" | 180 lbs | WR Rockmart | 2025 State GA – Rockmart
A small-town receiver in Northwest Georgia who can absolutely play at the D1 level, Anderson is a versatile two-way prospect who can make a major impact on both sides of the ball. At wide receiver, this long, athletic 6-foot-3 180-pounder showed the ability to get open and make big catches down the field. He runs well and brings above-average speed for his size, allowing him to sneak by defensive backs down the field. As a junior last fall, Anderson caught 66 passes for 1,100 yards and 13 touchdowns. He was incredibly productive and should be even better as a senior in the fall. He’s a natural at the position, he’s a promising route-runner and has strong, dependable hands. If he played at a bigger program, a lot more people would know about Anderson and the talent he brings to the table. He’s a difference-maker bound for a monster senior season both at receiver and defensive back this fall. He’s ranked as the No. 200 prospect in Georgia for the 2025 class, but look for that ranking to increase in the next rankings update.
Tyon Jones – Bradwell Institute
One of the fastest and most explosive receivers in Southeast Georgia and around the Savannah area, Jones is an electric weapon with the ball in his hands who can score anytime he has the ball. An easy vertical threat who can fly past defenders with ease, Jones is a big-play machine who is tough to stay with down the field. He can run different vertical routes to get open, and once he has the ball, it’s tough to find any defender around who can catch him from behind. He’s coming off a tremendously productive junior season last fall where he caught 45 passes for 1,083 receiving yards and seven touchdowns. He’s also a playmaker on special teams as a return man. He’s one of the most productive receivers in the area returning for the 2024 season, and his speed should be on full display all season long. Look for Jones to see a new ranking come his way down the road, too.
BuddyRow Garrer BuddyRow Garrer 5'8" | 140 lbs | ATH Aquinas | 2025 GA – Evans
Another explosive playmaker who can outrun just about everyone in the area, Garrer is coming off an excellent junior season where he proved he’s one of the very best in the Augusta area and one of the more slept-on receivers across the state. A track star who can pick up yards in a hurry, Garrer will now take his talent, speed, and playmaking ability over to Evans High School. At Aquinas last year, Garrer caught 56 passes for 906 yards and six touchdowns. He’s still developing as a route runner and an overall receiver, but his speed and ability to stretch the field make him a true difference-maker on offense. He shows strong hands, good body control, and the potential to take his game to the next level. He flashed D1 ability last year, and if he continues to work hard and develop his craft more this spring and summer, Garrer could be tough to stop this fall as a senior.
