There has been no shortage of buzz about whether another Georgia freshman receiver could have the type of impact this season that A.J. Green had last season. A.J. Green made a major impact on the Bulldogs last year. Which freshman pass catcher will follow in his footsteps this season?
WR Marlon Brown, WR Wooten , or TE Charles !
Senior receiver Michael Moore,states:
“It’s really not fair to compare anybody to A.J. Green right now,” Moore said. “That’d be putting too much pressure on somebody.”
Even so, Moore has been impressed by highly touted incoming freshmen receivers Marlon Brown, Rantavious Wooten and Orson Charles in workouts this summer.
“I really feel all three of them can make plays,” Moore said. “Marlon — you throw it up, and he’s going to get it. Wooten — he’s a fast, quick guy; put the ball in space and he can make something happen. And Orson — he’s a hard-worker, a nitty-gritty guy ... a big body who can also run.”
But as for a Green-like impact? “Just come in and work hard and prove it during the season,” Moore said.
Charles also has caught the attention of sophomore cornerback Brandon Boykin.
“He is probably going to make a big impact,” Boykin said. “I feel he’s a man-child. I don’t know where [coaches] will put him — he can play both tight end and receiver — but I feel like he came in off the bat doing really good. I look for him to be making plays.”
Receiver will be a closely watched position in the Bulldogs’ preseason practices because only Green and Moore are proven producers at the position.
