Early on this season Morgan has caused a lot of trouble for opposing secondaries and shows no signs of slowing down. At 6'4 220 Morgan has great size and plays with a ton of speed and physicality. Morgan has a set of strong hands that allow him to highpoint the ball and haul in some tough contested passes. It's super impressive watching Morgan, he can do a lot of things at his size that make him an unbelievable pass catcher. It's been easy to see this season, so far this year Morgan has hauled in 33 receptions for 557 yards and 9 touchdowns. It's been exciting to watch him take the field this season, he's consistently developed into a more dominant receiver each year and he will continue to this fall. With how well he's played, Morgan has picked up offers from schools like Alabama, Ohio State, Auburn, and plenty more. Be sure to keep watching him down the stretch- he's one of the top prospects in the country and is sure to make more plays.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["741055"],"_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-66f7037eb5b7a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='741055' first='DJ' last='Vinson']</strong><a href="https://prepredzone.com/player/dj-vinson/"></a> has been making play all season long as a terrific wide receiver out of Montgomery Academy. So far this year, Vinson has been off to a terrific start in his senior season and has continually been a reliable playmaker for his team's passing attack. Vinson has great speed and a set of incredibly reliable hands- he easily gains separation from defensive backs and can make a wide variety of difficult catches at every level of the field. Throughout the season, Vinson has been a reliable target for his team- he's already hauled in 34 receptions for 594 yards and 7 touchdowns this season and shows no signs of slowing down. It's been really impressive watching Vinson this season, he's a dynamic wideout that does a ton of great things with the ball in his hands. With how well he's played, Vinson has picked up offers from USF, Jacksonville State, Samford, and plenty of other good programs. Be sure to keep watching Vinson the rest of this season, he's made a ton of plays this year and is going to continue being one of Montgomery Academy's top targets!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1507895"],"_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-66f7037eb5bd5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1507895' first='Brayden' last='Collins'] is a super-talented wide receiver out of Ohatchee that has been dominating opposing secondaries every week this season. Collins has a ton of talent and skills as a pass catcher that have allowed him to become one of the top leading receivers in the state- he consistently finds ways to get open, has a great set of hands, and has the speed and athleticism to take short plays the distance. It's really impressive watching Collins run his routes- he makes some sharp cuts and gets in and out of his breaks with ease, allowing him to consistently beat defensive backs all around the field. It's been easy to see this season, Collins currently lists 44 receptions for 839 yards and 9 touchdowns in just 5 games played, making him an explosive playmaker. It's been really exciting to watch Collins in his breakout season, he's had himself a great start to the year and is only going to keep getting better. Be sure to watch him the rest of this season, he's bound to keep making big plays!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1507896"],"_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-66f7037eb5c15"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1507896' first='Jay'lin' last='Taylor'] is a dominant wide receiver out of Oxford that has been terrific for their passing attack this season. So far Taylor's junior season has been one to watch- he's made explosive plays against a bunch of really talented secondaries this year and has been QB [player_tooltip player_id='495323' first='Mason' last='Mims'] favorite target week after week. Taylor plays with a ton of speed, quickness, and toughness he uses to beat defensive backs downfield- he runs great routes, consistently gets great separation, and can make difficult catches along the sideline, in the open field, and when heavily covered. All of this has shown up on tape this season, Taylor has hauled in 37 receptions for 607 yards and 4 touchdowns in just the first half of the year. It's been really exciting watching Taylor this year, he's come a long way in his development and is putting the entire state on notice. Be sure to watch Taylor going forward, he and this Oxford team have been a fun program to watch this year and could end up going on a deep postseason run. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
