It’s one of the positions that south Florida is known for producing.
Over the years, receivers from the Sunshine State have made their way to the next level – and beyond – and that talent train is far from over.
<img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-115621" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2021/03/2022-Updaters-300x150.jpg" alt="2022 Receivers" width="300" height="150" />Each and every year – no matter what class it may be – receivers rise to the top as college coaches from across the nation use the pass-catching talent that is cultivated in Florida and more than elevates their programs with big time play-makers.
As we have done over the past few weeks, and will continue to do into the spring is spotlight the <strong><em>Class of 2022 Updated 100 Plus</em></strong> that we have been promoting.
Today, we add to those impressive prospects on that list with a look at five receivers who have the opportunity to change the course of a game in 2021:
<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="50009" first="Amarion" last="Brown"], 6-3, 180, Stuart Martin County. </strong>Here is someone we have talked about, promoted and evaluated in the past year – and make no mistake about how gifted this young man is. Has the size, athletic ability and skill to make a major impact for this program in his final season. As a pass catcher he creates mismatches and uses his skill and experience as a defensive back to make a difference. This is a true talent.

<strong>Greg Gaines III, 6-2, 185, Tampa Bay Tech. </strong>In addition to having the size, skill and speed to play this sport at a high level, here is someone who has given himself some major choices – with an eye-catching 3.93 GPA in the classroom. Watch this quality athlete perform and you can see how he plays this game with passion and is ready for any challenge. Catches the ball in traffic as well as making plays with his speed. This is definitely a top-flight football talent who is only going to get better.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="50017" first="Shawn" last="Miller"], 6-1, 190, Bradenton IMG Academy. </strong>After watching this talented perform a year ago, there was no getting around how gifted he is as a football player and as a teammate. Has speed, is a tremendous route runner and can definitely change a game with his knack of making plays. With so many Power 5 programs looking to get him in their campus next year, the 2021 season will certainly be one that could even elevate his status further.

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="50078" first="Devaughn" last="Mortimer"], 5-11, 160, Fort Lauderdale Dillard. </strong>If you have never watched this young man play the game of football, nobody has to tell you why many who evaluated and rated him believe that he may not just be one of the best in Florida, but with his skill, speed and ability to break games open – from anywhere om the field – that this may be one of the nation’s top football talents. Whether it’s in 7-on-7 or camps, combines and games, this is certainly a talent that will continue to get better and dominate the competition.
