<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We just released a massive <a href="https://t.co/MVLjKsmITJ">rankings update</a> for the 2027 class, adding nearly 200 new players and moving almost 100 players up by at least one spot. 11 players were major stock risers, rising at least 100 spots in the rankings. After looking at the defenders who rose the most in our update, let's look at the offense. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>*Not a subscriber?

He was a bit behind, due to the role he plays for Jack Britt, with only a handful of catches last year. But he's electric with the ball in his hands and is a matchup nightmare. We had him slated for a big jump, then saw him at our <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/05/prz-exposure-camp-wr-analysis/">Prep Redzone Exposure Camp</a> and made the decision to move him even closer to the top.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1892963"],"_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-6a04ccf8d9171"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McElroy is making the move over to Ambassador Christian from Jay M. Robinson after finishing his junior season as one of the best deep ball receivers in the state last year. He averaged nearly 30 yards per catch with nine touchdowns. He's been busy on the recruiting trail, picking up multiple Power Four offers in the last couple of months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2104503"],"_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-6a04ccf8d9194"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cooper had a fantastic season last fall for Knightdale, with nearly 700 yards and 11 touchdowns against a brutal schedule. As he moves to a loaded Rolesville team, I think he'll be in the running to be one of the primary receiving targets on an offense that wants more out of its passing attack. He's a big-bodied receiver with the ability to get behind defenders and win at the catch point.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2104467"],"_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-6a04ccf8d91b4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Worley made a massive jump from the back of the rankings to right around the middle thanks to a strong junior season. A standout in the classroom, Worley should get plenty of interest from high-academic institutions. He moves well for his size. The left tackle is also a talented baseball player, and that athleticism shows on the football field, too.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2043968"],"_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-6a04ccf8d91d2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Eure's film is fantastic. There are plenty of ways a guy can rise, but sometimes, good old-fashioned on-field dominance is the best way. Eure moves really well for a guy his size, and he has a college-ready body. We're obviously not alone in that assessment, as he just picked up his first offer from UNC Pembroke.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1752266"],"_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-6a04ccf8d91ef"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fehling has had a strong offseason, getting stronger and showing some fantastic accuracy on his kicks. That's led to his first offer, a rare early FBS offer at the kicker position. We wanted his ranking to reflect his actual recruiting value, and a cool 143-spot jump seems completely appropriate in this case.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>There's plenty to come from Matt Morrow, Joshua Graham, and me on the 2027 rankings over the next week.

We just released a massive rankings update for the 2027 class, adding nearly 200 new players and moving almost 100 players up by at least one spot. 11 players were major stock risers, rising at least 100 spots in the rankings. After looking at the defenders who rose the most in our update, let's look at the offense.
