Expert Analysis
Matt Tate | Prep Redzone Scout
This list wouldn’t be complete without the leader in touchdowns. Wheat measures in at 5’9 170-pounds and is like a bowling ball. Accounting for 143 carries, 1603 yards and 23 touchdowns on the ground. He had 7 receptions for 201 yards and 2 touchdowns. He also got some action as a free safety, with 19 total tackles (6 solo, 13 assisted), 2 INT, and 1 FR. Wheat has very good athletic ability due to very good acceleration, speed, change of direction, and balance. He is the whole package at running back. He also does damage in the passing game. Being a reliable target for his QB in distress. He has very good vision, choosing the correct gap and thrashing the defense. He’s a mixture of physical and speed. Wheat puts his shoulder down to run through defenders. Wheat uses his home run speed to run past both levels of the defense. He drives his powerful legs forward for extra yardage. Wheat is a fantastic back, and I’m curious to see where he lands.
