<p>There's a really talented crop of wide receivers coming out of the Northwest right now.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>So, it should come as no surprise that few positions in the region have generated more new offers, or more buzz, in the past few months than the pass-catchers.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Here's a look a the wide receivers who either had big camp showings or added significantly to their respective offer sheets: </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='985348' first='Jayce' last='Halasz'], Graham-Kapowsin (2028) — A list like this has to begin with Halasz.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The 6-foot-3, 195-pound speedster has been one of the fastest-rising receiver prospects in the entire country. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Since May 1, he has added scholarships from Alabama, Ohio State, Oregon, USC, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin and others.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Simply put, he's making a case to be an All-American selection, as well as a potential top-100 guy nationally.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>It's silly to think in our last PRZ update he was our highest-rated player in the Northwest without a Power 4 conference offer.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>But we were certain the breakout - and recruiting response - was inevitable.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Alas, here we are.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Halasz is a certified national recruit with a chance to be one of the biggest risers in the entire country when rankings update.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='937176' first='Malachi' last='Garlington'], Nelson (2027) — Prep Redzone has been very high on Garlington for months.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The 6-foot-3, 180-pound speedster, who collected 20 touchdowns last fall, was ahead of players with multiple Power 4 offers in our last update.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Since then, Garlington has picked up an offer from Oregon and committed to the Ducks.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A year ago, he was an intriguing young pass-catcher with little fanfare.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Now, he's part of what could be the nation's best recruiting class.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>What a massive rise! </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Kaydon Tatum, O'Dea (2029) — May offers from Arizona and Washington signaled the Arizona transplant was legit.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>But his recent offer from Auburn signaled Tatum will be a national recruit.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>He missed much of the camp season with an injury, but has been on a national tour to Florida State, Georgia and others. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1397315' first='Justin' last='Suega'], Federal Way (2029) — Since May 1, the 6-foot-3, 195-pound two-way athlete has added offers from Arizona, Colorado State, Utah and Washington State.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Two of those offers cement his certain status as a Power 4 recruit.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Suega will be one of the most coveted players in the region in the class of 2029, and his early start is simply further evidence that he is a premier prospect on the West Coast. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='936920' first='Jasiah' last='Agnimel'], Lake Oswego (2027) — The 6-foot-4, 210-pound WR/TE just committed to Portland State on June 25.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I've got an FBS grade on him, and wonder if that commitment will stick.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>If it does, he'll be the best in-state commitment for PSU in years.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Agnimel has a chance to make the leap and be one of the state's biggest mismatches this fall. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='685276' first='Sirjewel' last='Glover'], Rainier Beach (2027) —We've liked Glover at PRZ for some time and had an FBS grade on him early.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>He recently committed to Washington State, which represents a really nice addition for the Cougars.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I keep hearing good things about their recruiting efforts, and it's clearly paying off.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Getting guys like Glover and four-star offensive lineman Rashaun Lavata'i speaks volumes about the new staff.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Sincere Ford, FSP Academy (2031) — Welcome to Power 4 status, Sincere.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The young talent recently added his first Power 4 offer from Kansas State.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>It's remarkably early for the young athlete, but that's simply an offer that has to be mentioned.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>His stock is clearly very high at a young age.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Big-time! </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='935357' first='Josiah' last='Hawkins'], Cascade (2027) — Hawkins is one of the best most under-recruited players in the Northwest.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The talented two-way standout was among the best wide receivers and defensive backs at The Northwest Showcase, flipping back and forth to either make big plays or break up passes.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>It's stunning to see his recruitment still quietly.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>He's set a 4A district meet record in the 100 (10.94) and shows every bit of that speed on both sides of the ball.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>He's a Big Sky-caliber player, and it will be interesting to see - if everything is where it needs to be in the classroom - how high his stock could climb. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Talon Bosky, Central Catholic (2027) — Bosky went on a big run with the Ivy League schools, seemingly adding offers on a weekly basis. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>But the FBS took notice as well, and he recently committed to Nevada.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The last big-time pass-catcher Nevada signed out of Oregon that we liked more than the consensus was Clackamas WR/TE Cole Turner.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>He's playing on Sundays. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2065218' first='Siosaia' last='Malietufa'], Puyallup (2029) — While Malietufa hasn't picked up any new FBS offers in a few weeks, he was a standout at The Northwest Showcase.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Initially split up by age, the 6-foot-2, 175-pound pass-catcher was quickly moved to the older group for better/more even competition.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>It's a little thing, but it's also a great sign that the 2029 prospect is on track to be a special playmaker in the coming years.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>We expect a big sophomore season from the new Puyallup star. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
