Pro MN Athletics Camp: Nate's RB/WR Standouts

EDINA-- Moving ahead to the next position groups, we take a look at the running backs and wide receivers that caught my attention and were logged into my notebook at the Pro MN Athletics Camps on Saturday at Braemar Turf in Edina. Plenty of untapped 2028s from all over the state, and one my favorite 2029 WRs heading into his freshmen year that was in my top tier overall amongst the entire WR group.    One of the first wide receivers to catch my attention in the early reps on Saturday was Briggs Tarnowski out of Rogers. Briggs showed off more smooth ability as a route-runner than you might expect for a 2028 prospect as this young was one of the more balanced wide receivers in multiple skillsets. quick and fluid off the top of his route, good change of direction and I liked this kid's hands a bunch rep after rep as I didn't see any drops during the reps I got to watch. <a href="https://x.com/briggs_tarno23">Twitter</a>     Another 2028 hat caught my attention during the live evals on Saturday at the Pro MN Athletics Camp in Edina was Eagan running back [player_tooltip player_id='1657638' first='Parker' last='West']. Parker flashed quickly in my eyes with his agility with his first step off the snap and consistently countered that skillset with the cuts he made on his routes. Parker surely has excellent position flexibility that the Wildcats can utilize to their advantage in the coming years, as the balanced skillsets I saw with Parker were quite consistent on Saturday. The tape shows off a 2028 athlete that has sound open field vision too. Parker showed off plenty of reps that translates to Friday nights as a 2028 I like as a riser from the live eval.     Our current RB6 in the 2028 class out of St. Francis in [player_tooltip player_id='1236446' first='Owen' last='Darsow'] was another target in the running back group that was in my top-tier. Owen showed off a running back that you can tell processes quickly with his vision can run like a bull charging at the rodeo, as on numerous reps I was impressed with how sudden he was with his burst and had top-tier change of direction in the running back group too. I also came away impressed with his route-running, as Owen showed off great fluidity for his 5'8 170 pound frame than to me from the eye test, looked like he played way bigger than that from what I saw in the live eval. He surely is one that I feel is trending upwards in the 2028 class as I love the upside this young man should continue to bring with his durability. <a href="https://x.com/ODarsow77830">Twitter</a>     A new 2028 name I watched out of the Outstate that I thought showed quick development during the Pro MN Athletics Camp on Saturday in Edina was [player_tooltip player_id='1684401' first='Bryson' last='Kampsen'] out of Wabsso. If you watched his first live rep to his last, you could see the growth this kid made from camp start to end, as it showed out to me as a route-runner and with his hands. He appeared to me as a 2028 wide receiver that was very coachable and was taking in the skillsets he was given and putting them into play quickly. On one particular rep I watched towards the end of camp, Bryson made a reception from a throw that was just off-line but his ability to adjust to the throwing angle allowed him to reel it in with his ball-tracking ability. A 2028 that is super under the radar, with no Twitter or on Hudl yet.     One of the most intriguing wide receivers regardless of class on Saturday was Mankato West 2029 wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id='1715725' first='Connor' last='Moen'] as he finished in my top-tier in the WR group overall. You could not miss this young man with the eye-test alone, and he showed that his game is worth more than just that. He showed off a huge catch radius that on numerous occasions showed off his athletic ability and vertical on routes on air. As a pass-catcher, I also thought Connor had some of the best hands in the WR group as one that his process once he got the ball showed off sudden quickness to get upfield quickly. The Scarlets surely have a stud coming into their WR core in the 2029 class that I will be tracking a ton over the coming years, as one that has a very high ceiling.     A 2027 wide receiver that intrigued me with his live reps on Saturday at the Pro MN Athletics Camp in Edina, was [player_tooltip player_id='1581401' first='Vincent' last='Prasky'] out of Champlin Park. At 5'10 175 pounds, I thought the catch radius Vincent showed off during the live evals I got exceeded his measurables for sure as I would be curious to find out where this kid's wingspan lies as it was intriguing when he got his hands in the air. On tape, Vincent shows off the attention to detail as a run-blocker, as I was quite impressed with his technique on numerous tape reps I got to watched on how well he finishes his blocks and angles his defender outside of his Rebels ball carrier. A 2027 for the Rebels that I like his upside he can prove in the coming years.     Zion was a wide receiver I wish I could have gotten to watch on more reps, but I came away impressed in the reps I did watch out of the 2028 wide receiver out of Lakeville North. On the eye test, I thoguht Zion appeared longer than his measurables show especially with the strides I got to watch during routes on air as he showed off as one of the more well-put together wide receivers in the 2028 group as far as his frame. Zion also brought an intriguing football IQ to his reps that I saw, especially once the ball reached into his wheelhouse. Surely a 2028 target that has solid position flexibility to utilize for the Panthers in the coming years. <a href="https://x.com/ZionDavis2028">Twitter</a>
