WR Prospects: What Coaches Look for on Junior Day Visits

Junior day visits are a crucial opportunity for WR prospects to impress college coaches. To make a lasting impression, prospects should focus on showcasing their route-running skills and ability to create separation. Coaches look for quick feet, sharp cuts and the ability to beat press coverage. One key metric to focus on is the 3-cone drill. Coaches want to see WRs complete the drill in under 7 seconds, demonstrating agility and quickness. Additionally, prospects should be prepared to discuss their film, highlighting specific plays where they used their speed and agility to create separation. Coaches also value WRs who can play both outside and slot, making them more versatile and valuable to the team.
