<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>Here we take a look at some of the fast twitch, explosive play weapons in the area at the receiver position.

He is explosive in short areas and is lethal in the open field. Wehby is a technician in the slot, using his speed and quickness to his advantage vs slower opponents. He is crafty with the ball in his possession, making the most out of nothing. Wehby has shown the capability of turning short routes into house calls with his agility after the catch. Not only is he a dominate option at receiver, but he is also one of the more dangerous return men in the area. For his junior season Wehby caught 86 passes for over 1,000 yards and 11 touchdowns while also capping over 1,800 all purpose yards. A true playmaker who is a highlight reel on the field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/20263853/68c489ebfb1700158b980ff6' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69dc1d1546488"} /--> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1248017"],"_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-69dc1d1546564"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nelson proved to be a do-it-all player for the Rams offense. He is electric in space and has the top speed to outrun any defense. Nelson recognizes space in zone coverage and knows how to sit in order to make himself available to his QB. He is an efficient route runner with great body control and does not go down without a fight. He shows strength in fighting for the ball in the air as well as after the catch. Nelson is a valuable weapon who can change the game in one play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/20420356/68e9a00999002312007c4c49' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69dc1d1546609"} /--> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1351519"],"_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-69dc1d15466b4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mbobile is a deep ball and big-play threat with the pure speed he possesses. He hits another gear once he sees the open field. Mbobile is at his best after the catch, evading tacklers and showing off his agility in space. His speed creates mismatches and keeps defenses on their heels. He has the skill to turn a simple hitch, drag, or RPO into an explosive gain. Mbobile is a dangerous player who can shift the momentum with one run after the catch. Lightning in a bottle. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/23054910/692d98c7ca1cd327c34d97fe' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69dc1d15466f6"} /--> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2126648"],"_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-69dc1d154677c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">DaReal is back and with a vengeance. Richardson capped off an impressive junior campaign displaying versatility and strength at the position. Strong, reliable hands with a physical run style after the catch, making big play after big play. He is natural catch who can work on the outside or slot and has a nice blend of power and quickness. Richardson possesses the speed to beat defenders to the outside and shows elusiveness in the open field. He is a key piece for the Falcons offense and will be a name to follow this spring.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/19729452/68c78c6d1b6bea0440012613' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69dc1d15467b6"} /--> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1247962"],"_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-69dc1d1546837"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">880 yards and 10 touchdowns on 42 catches for his junior season, Leyja showed exactly how explosive his game is. Working on the outside in single coverage or running acroos the middle from the slot, Leyja produce big-time plays for the Mustangs. He has great size, using his long arms and body control to haul in contested catches, and has the speed to beat any coverage in front of him. Leyja is a strong runner after the catch and can turn on the jets in space. He has shown to be a confident catcher who can be trusted in clutch moments. Leyja is one of the best big-play threats in the area and will be a top dawg once again next season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/22641657/692f02b8cc386d237960e8cb' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69dc1d1546870"} /-->

Here we take a look at some of the fast twitch, explosive play weapons in the area at the receiver position. These are guys who have shown tremendous ability working mainly from the slot, and using their skill to gain the advantage over their opponents. The players listed are reliable targets who are due for big time senior seasons.
