Free 247 - OSU NFTC: Offensive standouts

COLUMBUS, Ohio - There was plenty of buzz surrounding the talented defensive linemen and defensive backs that were flying around the field at Ohio State over the weekend but if you looked you could find some offense talent as well and some very elite talent at that.

Dwayne Stanford led a strong receiving corps.

Wide receivers

The wide receiver position may have contained the most depth among the offensive groups and one of the headliners among that group was four-star Dwayne Stanford. The Top247 prospect and teammate of fellow four-star Adolphus Washington certainly has size and has good vertical ability. He?s a stretch-the-field type threat with good speed who showed good change of direction and feet in position drills.

Stanford's recruitment remains wide open listing national programs such as Michigan, Alabama, LSU, Miami, Florida and Florida State as schools of interest along with the home program of Ohio State.

Another four-star in attendance was Monty Madaris out of Cincinnati (Ohio) Moeller. Madaris, though not quite as big as Stanford, is a more polished receiver that also possesses a goood combination of size and athleticism. Madaris catches the ball naturally away from his body, gets in and out of his routes with ease and looks the part of one of the top receivers in Ohio.

BEAVERTON, Ore. -- Due to a rule from the Ohio High School Athletic Association, the Ohio-area prospects at The Opening will not be able to wear pads for the lineman challenge.

"That really stinks," ESPN recruiting coordinator Craig Haubert said. "The state of Ohio always has excellent linemen and kids that love to compete. Guys like Se'Von Pittman, Adolphus Washington and Ifeadi Odenigbo are among the best in the nation, and we can't see them in pads here."

Although the players are disappointed, it hasn't dampened their enthusiasm for the event.

"I mean, it's disappointing but there is some great coaching here and some good opportunities to learn things," said Centerville (Ohio) High School offensive lineman Benny McGowan. "We're still part of the event, just not as involved as we'd want."
