Yannick Smith

A late-blooming wide receiver prospect with tons of potential given the combination of his natural bounce, sturdy frame and ball skills. Turned plenty of heads during a senior campaign in which he accounted for 1,928 yards of total offense, but really made a name for himself during a strong week of performances at the Shrine Bowl of the Carolinas. Constantly wins with his release and has the foot speed to challenge off-man coverage as he eats up cushion. Attacks the football with a sense of urgency at the catch point and will out-muscle defenders of all different sizes. Creative with the ball in his hands and will weave his way across the field to pick up yardage. Must keep progressing and fine-tuning his craft after focusing mostly on basketball throughout his youth, but has what it takes to emerge as a true difference-maker on the outside.
