Ohio State Buckeyes freshman wide receiver Jeremiah Smith is one of the most talented freshmen in college football this season. He played a huge role in the first-round win for the Buckeyes against the Tennessee Volunteers.
This season, he has caught 63 passes for 1,037 yards receiving and 12 touchdowns, along with averaging 16.5 yards per catch. Against Tennessee, he caught six passes for 103 yards receiving and two touchdowns, along with averaging 17.2 yards per reception.
Max Chadwick Of Pro Football Focus Thinks That Ohio State Buckeyes Wide Receiver Jeremiah Smith Is the Best Wide Receiver Heading Into Next College Football Season
The Buckeyes season is not even over yet as they prepare to face the #1 Oregon Ducks in the Rose Bowl. The winner of that game will either face the #5 Texas Longhorns or the #4 Arizona State Sun Devils in the college football playoffs semifinals.
Max Chadwick of Pro Football Focus is already looking forward to Smith’s sophomore season in college football as a wide receiver. Chadwick said:
“He’s the best wide receiver heading into next season and it’s not even close.”
This is a very bold statement from him because there will be other talented wide receivers returning next season to college football. One of them happens to be Alabama Crimson Tide wide receiver Ryan Williams.

good news, you don’t have to be the best WR to win awards anymore, just need the right marketing team behind you.

He was the best THIS season if we keep it honest. Stars aside what other wideout you taking over him? He’s big, fast, strong. And STILL developing
