Rising Stock Receivers 2022 (Part 1)

<span style="font-size: 1rem;">The wide receiver position isn’t as deep as it was last season but there is plenty of talented wideouts that possess excellent ball skills, leaping ability, and are dangerous to the opposition once they catch the football. Here are some of the rising Ohio receivers in the class of 2022.</span> <strong>Javi’er Wills     6’0” 178     Westerville South</strong> Wills along with Kaden Sunders give the Wildcats a two-prong attack at the wide receiver position. Wills is especially impressive versus press man coverage due to his release skills. He has a good vertical and can highpoint the football over defensive backs. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="126534" first="Claishon" last="Ivory"]     5’11” 175     Euclid</strong> If you want to go deep, this is the guy to throw it to due to his speed and acceleration. Ivory blows past corners and safeties whether he’s out wide or in the slot. He’s the go to guy on takeoff and seam routes, only hope for the defense is to get pressure on the quarterback. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="91556" first="Jack" last="Arnold"]     6’0” 175     Berea Midpark</strong> When you first watch Arnold, you think of him as a possession receiver but then you realize he has deceptive speed when he runs the tunnel screen and when he goes vertical. He also does a superb job of finding windows in zone coverage to get open. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="34422" first="Tayshaun" last="Mayfield"]     6’2” 200     Hilliard Bradley</strong> Mayfield is an intimidating physical specimen at the wideout position. He has terrific ball skills and can go high in the air to bring the football down. Mayfield also is a punishing running back with good agility and quickness. Mayfield could grow into a tight end at the next level. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="123035" first="Brenten" last="Jones"]     6’2” 180     Steubenville</strong> Jones a tall and smooth receiver that also doubles as a defensive back. He has sure-hands and will fight defensive backs for the ball or out jump them to haul in the reception. An outstanding basketball player as well, Jones’ versatility and competitive nature stands out. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="34446" first="Kenyon" last="Owens"]     6’1” 185     Chaminade-Julienne</strong> This talented slot receiver has breakaway speed. Owens can take it to the house every time he gets the ball in his hands. His speed and big play potential is also evident as a return specialist who runs by would-be tacklers in space. &nbsp;
