The top wide receiver in the 2020 class is Julian Fleming.  The Pennsylvania product is 6’3″ and 210 pounds and is the absolute definition of a football player. He loves the game religiously and is the guy everyone will want to go to battle with.

He does nearly everything on the field to perfection. Whether it’s route running, catching or flashing his speed and gaining separation, Fleming can do everything and is going to be a number one receiver right off the bat if he lands in the right situation.

Fleming might also be the toughest guy on the field because of his love for the game. His heart is worn on his sleeve and he’s going to look to shine in the game’s toughest moments because that’s the nature of his character.

Fleming staying home and playing for Penn State is the smart prediction. In the tough confines of the Big Ten Conference, it’s a great fit for a player of his ilk. All the great rivalries are calling his name and he’s going to have an opportunity right away to have his moment.

It should come as no surprise that Alabama, Ohio State and Clemson are also after Fleming. He could land anywhere, but seeing him in a Nittany Lions’ uniform would make a lot of sense on Saturday’s.

Prediction: Penn State
