Stats: 4 Receptions, 41 Yards, 1 TDrnValitchka has caught my eyes earlier this season, but Friday night he gave me even more reason to push him up the rankings. The senior WR is a legitimate deep threat. He has the burst and speed to eat up cushion, stack the WR, and run away from the field after the catch. Michael also proved that he tracks the ball well downfield. His TD came on an endzone shot where he couldn’t just win with speed. He had to adjust to the ball, and go get it. Don’t sleep on the field stretching WR.

. Michael changed the game with his speed. Right from the first highlight play where he had DBs running into each other as he flew by them for the easy TD. The speed shined on every play of Michael’s. He ate up cushion, putting pressure on the DB, and was used on a lot of routes that allowed him to make subtle breaks so he could stay at top speed. It paid off big time. Key to that gameplan is being able to track the ball, and Michael easily ran under passes and adjusted when needed. The senior also made a lot of the selfless plays, like delivering key blocks in the run game. He is moving up our boards, make sure he is on yours.
