Another big prospect with an insane catch radius is wide receiver Reece Vander Zee Reece Vander Zee 6'5" | 190 lbs | WR Central Lyon | 2024 State IA out of Central Lyon. Standing 6’5, Vander Zee is a match-up nightmare against just about any cornerback that he gets matched up with. That’s a good explanation for why nearly one out of every three catches went for touchdowns last season. Vander Zee was a big reason why his team captured the state championship as he was an unstoppable weapon in the passing game. With his size, he was as good as automatic in the red zone. And just like Roskop, even when he was covered, he would find a way to come down with the football more times than not. Another thing that really stood out is his stride and his ability to run down field. That long frame allows him to separate from his defender and there were plenty of those moments last season. The game plan seemed pretty simple for the tall receiver last season. Most of his highlights from last year were on go routes as he would simply beat his man in a one on one situation and would come down with the ball. He’s also incredibly physical and when he did need to block, he would flatten his smaller opponent.
