Expert Analysis
Connor Jackson | Prep Redzone Scout
Preston Bird Preston Bird 5'9" | 160 lbs | WR Veterans | 2024 State GA is a smaller WR at 5’9 165, but he makes up for his smaller stature with outstanding explosiveness and speed. Bird can track the deep ball and can take a screen and shake off defenders as he trots to the endzone. With the ball in his hands, Bird has the quick, sudden movements to pick his way through traffic and find grass. Once he opens up his stride, he hits another gear and has the speed to completely beat angles and climb away from chasing tacklers. This gives him upside as a kick returner as well. In the downfield passing game, Bird is exceptionally quick and explosive getting in and out of his breaks, turning and stopping on a dime and then quickly getting back up to full speed. Bird is a true YAC WR with kick returning upside. Due to his sheer explosiveness with the ball in his hands and the ability to create separation, Bird could grow into a contributor at Samford.
