Expert Analysis

Mark Johnson

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

Deshaun is an exciting WR prospect to watch. He has a powerful, long frame that offers a huge catch radius because Deshaun is excellent at tracking the ball and timing his leaps to go up and get it. He easily can soar over a DB to reel it in, and he has the soft hands to be able to catch it at the edges of his catch radius. The big WR moves with so much controlled power before and after the catch too. You see the burst off the line and out of breaks and he hits a second gear after the catch and will not hesitate to outmuscle a DB for extra yards after the catch. Williams would be a great add at outside receiver for a lot of programs.

Williams burst onto the scene this past season for St. Francis (Wheaton). Since the season ended, the 6’2, 205 split out has transferred to Naperville Central. One thing is for sure: whoever Williams plays for, he is sure to dominate. He possesses a lethal combination of crisp route running and speed, allowing him to separate in a variety of ways. Williams can create space through his sharp cuts and smooth transitions, and he has the straight line speed to take the top off of any defense. Additionally, he has the hands to make acrobatic catches on any ball thrown his direction. As his recruiting begins to pick up steam, keep an eye on Williams during his senior campaign.

Deshaun Williams Deshaun Williams 6'2" | 205 lbs | WR Naperville Central | 2025 State IL , running back for St. Francis, is another really impressive athlete to consider in this class. With him already picking up an offer from Central Michigan, it is clear that there are some big-time programs out there that think very highly of him. With his incredible speed, DeShaun is always going to be one of the fastest dudes on the field. His speed creates an extra layer of versatility in his game. Based on my evaluation, I believe that you could put DeShaun anywhere on the field and he will produce some big numbers for your program. If DeShaun keeps this up, he is going to end up being one of the most sought-after athletes in the state.
