Georgia football: 4 versatile WRs that make the room more powerful

Georgia football 2022 signee Chandler “CJ” Smith

Georgia football added Chandler or CJ Smith to this class, and it’s been a massive pick-up since he announced. This receiver is another speedster that can blow past defensive backs like it’s nothing.

The 6-1 and 185-pound receiver out of Mount Dora, Fla., was an Early Signing Day addition as he committed and signed on Dec. 14.

According to 247Sports Composite rankings, Smith came out of high school as the No. 32 receiver and the No. 26 player out of the Sunshine State.

Smith is one of the fastest prospects in the 2022 class as he broke 10.3 in the 100-meter dash — meaning he can burn most defensive backs. Not to mention, he has the length to be a deep-ball threat and the skill to be a more technical receiver for those shorter passes if needed.

He has great length and a frame to handle more weight if needed. Smith tracks the ball well but had a tough time staying healthy in high school, so the first key with him in Athens is getting some weight on him and the proper diet.

Once he gets really into the Georgia nutrition program, this guy will explode and could see some playing time early.

With him adding weight, it’ll make him tougher to cover. The strength staff will continue working on his speed because that is his biggest weapon. Imagine him and Arian Smith on the field at the same time with both of their speed — pure chaos is what that will be called.

Smith has a shot at early playing time if he continues to add mass, and now that Bryan McClendon is in the receiver room, he will get the development that could force Georgia to use him right away, and we’re not complaining.

The kid is a stud with the capabilities of greatness, and we’re excited to see him compete this spring.
