DY mentioned that he really, really likes Oakley as a prospect. I had overlooked him (probably offer bias) so i pulled up the Hudl and was blown away.
Guys we've got a phenomenal athlete coming in.
What stood out to me is how diverse a skill set he displayed. At 6'5" 210 he housed a punt return. He made multiple athletic plays as a DB whether it was defending passes or tracking guys down sideline to sideline. He has a knack for snatching balls out of the air before shorter players can factor in. He showed route running that can get separation at this level at the 825 mark.
I see Oakley as a future impact offensive weapon, who I think he could factor into 2022 plans as a Sammy Wheeler split out type -guy. Count me as excited about Garrett Oakley
