Canada 2026 Rankings: Wide Receivers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A really strong group of wide receivers in that features some quality route runners and some guys who as they develop their athleticism can really turn into NCAA/USports prospects. There is a solid mix of interesting receiver types in these rankings and a couple of players who are in the discussion for the best 2026 WR prospect in Canada. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Check out the updated 2026 Canada Rankings&nbsp;<a href="https://prepredzone.com/canada/rankings/2026-rankings-2/">HERE</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Just a note about these rankings if players list themselves on twitter or HUDL as a 2026 in Canada and 2027 for the USA I tend to put them in the 2026 rankings because these only include players playing in Canada. If a player only lists 1 grad year they are put into that year's rankings.</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>If a player has already announced a transfer to a USA prep school he is not included in these rankings as they just include players who have played and are continuing to play in Canada – however there will be content on plenty of the quality Canadian players who currently play or plan to play in the States.</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">#1 Overall Wide Receiver</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1260749"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6675c6c5f17ef"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Lacombe has the production on paper that backs some of the high-quality WR traits you see on film. Consistent hands with a good catch radius. Really good route runner who can create separation at all three levels of the field using his quickness and long speed. The ability to make plays after the catch rounds out his skillset and is clear he is one of the top WRs in Canada. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Rest of the Rankings</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/position-ranking-table {"name":"acf/position-ranking-table","data":{"class":"2026","_class":"field_65cfb7374abb9","position":"2410","_position":"field_65cfbfcb19ad6","national_rankings":"0","_national_rankings":"field_660c1d73c0e49","state":"3466","_state":"field_65cfb88a603fe"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6675c6c5f1e23"} /--> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1218539' first='Elom' last='Ametitovi'] - Ametitovi out of Dalbe-Viau is really athletic prospect who can make tough catches and high points the ball well. One of the more explosive athletes in this class in Canada he has the burst and explosiveness to make plays after the catch. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1299864' first='Max' last='Pratt'] - I really like Pratt as a WR prospect who stretches the field really well. Good ball tracking skills, hands catcher, and shows the ability to win with a solid double move. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1299885' first='Tyler' last='Clazie'] - Clazie is a smaller prospect but he is really twitched up and can make things happen with the ball. His quickness helps him separate and he stands as an outlier as a more unique prospect in this WR class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1299888' first='Garrett' last='Cowen'] - Cowan out of Frontenac in Ontario is a solid WR prospect who has really solid production does a lot of quality work on tape after the catch. He shows the ability to change direction, break tackles, and his ability to catch and turn help him consistently make the first guy miss. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1299909' first='Rocky' last='Tavernese'] - Tavernese who had a really solid CFC Prospect Game is a well rounded WR prospect who is can separate and and shows the ability to consistently make plays in space. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
