On3 DB / Hykeem Williams

As a College Recruit

Physically-developed receiver with plus body control and burst. Possesses the balance and agility to make defenders miss in the open field as well as the juice to get upfield and pull through arm tackles after the catch. Has a big frame that carries his weight with ease. Measured 6-foot-2.5, 215 pounds with a 32-inch arm and 8.75-inch hand prior to his senior year. Filled out his frame considerably over his junior year. Shows vertical ability on 50-50 balls and on the hardwood as a basketball player. Tough to bring down after the catch with his size and burst. Averaged a double-double in points (12.2) and rebounds (10.3) on the basketball court as a junior. Played in seven games as a senior, catching 18 passes for 374 yards and five touchdowns. Relatively undeveloped technically and not as productive as most other top wide receivers in the cycle. Will develop a more diverse route tree as he transitions to the college game. Has all the physical tools to potentially turn into a dominant X-type receiver at the next level. On the older end among prospects in the 2023 cycle, turning 18 during his junior season.

Hykeem Williams' physical style of play and ability to win at the catch point remind us of George Pickens. Both have similar stature and frames at the same stage. Williams has added some more mass than Pickens late into his high school career and Pickens was a bit more acrobatic in contested catch situations.

Hykeem Williams a big riser in updated On300

Charles Power

Hykeem Williams moved up 82 spots to No. 71 in the updated On300 ranking. His ability to catch the ball in tight coverage is among the best in the 2023 class. Williams possesses long arms, strong hands, a physical mindset and excellent timing. The Sunshine State prospect also can run through multiple tackles after the catch. However, the 6-foot-2.5, 215 pound pass catcher is still developing as a route-runner and learning the nuances of the position. Williams’ playing speed is above average for his size, but there are no official testing numbers to marry with his tape.
