Every 5-star prospect in the final 2022 On3 rankings

A handful of prospects still remain unsigned or uncommitted as the calendar soon turns to February, but by and large, the 2022 recruiting cycle will be finished over the next few weeks.

With prospects’ senior seasons in the book, as well as the completion of the three major all-star games — and their accompanying practices — On3 has begun releasing its final rankings for the 2022 recruiting class. At the head of the class are the country’s top 32 prospects, who have each been given a five-star ranking. A little more than half of those 32 were five-stars previously, but 15 prospects have jumped into five-star category after impressive performances during their high school seasons, as well as on the all-star circuit. The new rankings also feature a new No. 1 overall prospect and top-ranked quarterback.

No. 1: QB Devin Brown
School: Draper (Utah) Corner Canyon
Status: Signed with Ohio State
On3 NIL Valuation: $56,000

“One of the more live-armed passers in the 2022 cycle. Generates considerable zip on the ball with the ability to drive throws downfield and from the far hash to the boundary. The ball pops out of his hand and comes in hot. Stretches the field vertically with his considerable arm strength. May have the most high-level, small window throws of any 2022 quarterback as a senior. At his best when he can sit back in the pocket and push the ball vertically. Has light feet with average to above average mobility. Transferred from the Phoenix area to Utah powerhouse Corner Canyon for his senior season. Is putting up big passing numbers as a senior. Has a bit of a gunslinger mentality, leading to a higher interception total. Can miss read defenders, leading to picks. Showing some more rushing ability in the red zone as a senior. Put forth a strong showing at the Elite 11 Finals prior to his senior season.”

“High upside defensive lineman who is already an outstanding player at the high school level. Has a large frame with plus length (34-inch arms) and large hands (10 inches).

A highly productive and disruptive player in high school for several seasons. Has advanced pass rush ability for a larger prospect. Uses first-step quickness to tee off against opposing offensive tackles. Pairs his high-end quickness with the length and a strong effort level to finish plays behind the line of scrimmage at a high rate. Among the more productive defensive linemen or EDGE prospects in 2022, posting double-digit sacks and at least 17 tackles for loss in all three varsity seasons.

A smart, heady player who displays toughness in taking a bunch of hits as an option quarterback. Led his team to a state title appearance as a junior.

Has a strong athletic profile as a standout three sport athlete. Is a one-step dunker in basketball and sports a 50 foot toss in the shot put, a ridiculous mark at his size.
