DFW Receivers Who Command Defensive Attention

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Defenses across the Metroplex know where the ball is going and these receivers still find ways to make game changing plays. They can win on the outside, turn a short catch into a huge gain and they have become trusted targets for their quarterbacks when the game is on the line. Here is a closer look at several go to receivers who command defensive attention every time they line up.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2399701"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6aab5e8970be4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Storey runs clean routes that enable him to get early. He has the speed to stretch the defense and make big plays. Storey is coming off a huge week three performance. His 11 catch, 261 yards and 2 touchdowns showed that he is a big play waiting to happen when he gets the ball in his hands. Storey is proving early on this season that he is a go to guy for Aubrey. Look for him to be ready to roll coming off the bye heading into to week five.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["946491"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6aab5e8970c2a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Caldwell is the total package. He has strong hands, with an extended catch radius and Caldwell can turn short grabs into huge chunk plays. He understands how to get open, his route running is clean and he has the quickness to beat defenders out of his breaks to get to the football. In week three Caldwell was excellent, hauling 5 catches for 182 yards and 4 touchdowns. He followed that up against Highland Park in week four, with 10 catches for 241 and 4 touchdowns. Expect Caldwell to see plenty of targets as the season progresses.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1533692"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6aab5e8970c52"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Williams is a difficult cover, he understands how to get open, his route running is crisp and when he gets in space he excels at runs after the catch. He is a sure handed receiver who can line up in multiple positions within the Allen offense and be a threat. Williams has the speed to stretch the field and he excels at getting open in the short to intermediate zones. Zach is a special teams threat with the ability to make big plays in the return game. With over 30 college offers, Williams is on the radar of colleges around the country and he is a key cog in the Allen offensive attack.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1858035"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6aab5e8970c74"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Demerson is explosive off the ball, he uses his quickness in space to get open early and he has the speed to separate from defenders at the second level. He has strong hands that allow him to be a reliable target. Demerson's super power is his elite shiftiness, he makes defenders miss in the open field and he is dangerous runner after the catch. Pryce has been a key weapon early on this season for the North Crowley Panthers. The Panthers are undefeated after the first four games in 2026. He is a prospect to get eyes on this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1881899"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6aab5e8970c97"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brown has the versatility to line up inline at the traditional tight end position, spilt out wide or be a threat from the slot. At 6-foot-3 and 225 pounds, he has a lean athletic frame and Brown has an extended reach. He is savvy route runner who has the skill set to find open zones in the defense and exploit them. Brown is a physical blocker in the running game, he is technically sound, he plays with excellent leverage and he finishes blocks through the whistle. The Sam Houston State commit has been a key cog in the Prosper offense early on this season. You can expect the Eagles to continue to feed him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["590565"],"_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"},"alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6ab5e213b7096"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Shaw has been unguardable early on this season and he has given defenses fits. He is explosive off the ball, Shaw has superb short area quickness that allows him to win early in his routes and he has the speed to stretch the field. What makes Shaw even more dangerous is his ability turn short catches into big plays. He has the speed to create separation at the second level but his phone booth quickness in space keeps defenders reaching for air and his open field running elite. Shaw has 22 receptions for 429 yards and 9 touchdowns, with 500 all-purpose yards to help lead Timberview to a 4-0 record heading into week five. The Tulsa commit is leaving no doubt that he is one of the top players in the state this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ShawTrysten/status/2102708974571176359?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"x","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/ShawTrysten/status/2102708974571176359?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ShawTrysten/status/2102708974571176359?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"x","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/ShawTrysten/status/2102708974571176359?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
