Eron Mallard Eron Mallard 5'10" | 180 lbs | WR Benedictine | 2027 State GA has a great deal of talent at the wide out position. Mallard has the lateral quickness and can take the top off a defense in a hurry as well as anyone in the Peach State. He is a talented route runner with sure, soft and strong hands. You can rely on him in major ways offensively, he is going to have a major season in the fall of 2026 in Georgia. He’s the real deal and is a pivotal piece to his team!

A versatile athlete who can make play after play no matter where he’s lined up, Mallard is a terrific overall athlete who can run, catch, and has a natural feel for the game. One of the top returning wide receivers in the Savannah area, Mallard also made big plays at running back while shining consistently on special teams. Mallard caught 32 passes last season as a junior for 657 yards and nine touchdowns. He also ran for just under 400 yards and four touchdowns on just 41 carries. He’s a big-play weapon who should have a giant senior season in 2026.

The offers have started to roll in here, but I have been on record as a big fan of Mallard dating back to the fall. He is a gadgety player with a high floor and a skillset that finds the field quickly at the next level. He is productive as a receiver, both down the field and in the quick game, while also acting as a threat in the run game. Just an all-around productive, reliable playmaker with elite T/F metrics, sprinting well under 11 seconds in the 100M, and consistently doing so. Even with the handful of offers, I still think this kid is underrecruited and has the tools to develop into a contributor at the FBS level.
