Given what we know now and Dupre having a season under his belt. Who would y'all say is the better prospect coming out of highschool? Is it fair to say that Johnson is more college ready than Dupre was coming out of highschool? What about purely from raw talent perspective (quickness, hands, physicality, etc.)....who y'all think gets the edge? I know Johnson is Johnson and Dupre is Dupre....but I'm just trying to get a comparison of the two here, not trying to see "who's better" or take anything away from either one bc I know both are/will be great. Haven't followed Tyron too much, so that's why I'm asking.

I would assume Johnson is a much more polished receiver coming from an Air Raid background.
Equally talented I'm sure.

From what I've gathered thus far, Johnson is a lot more physical (ex: getting off press coverage at the line) and bodying out DBs. Seems like Dupre would have the edge in leaping ability....but who knows??? That's why I'm asking these things.

Tyron Johnson is the total package. Including the mental part of the game.

Dupre is a monster deep threat, Tyron better in space

This hurts to say, but I think Tyron is a better talent. Malachi can catch anything thrown his way, but he doesnt have the after the catch talent like tyron.

This is actually a good comparison.

I think more highly of Johnson than any receiver the state has had since Randle, and that's saying ALOT.

Tyron has more of a reggie bush feel to me. Dupree is a big type of receiver you want on go routes. Tyron more of just throw a screen and give him the ball with space
Hopefully both had great P&G careers
