What they're saying: "Wright is a big-bodied wide receiver who is one of the top deep ball threats in the state of Texas. A true vertical field-stretcher who made the move to receiver from quarterback, so he has a cerebral approach to the game. Wright has tremendous leaping ability and his long arms supply a plus catch radius. Because of his overall upside and raw athleticism Wright is a prospect who will have national-level Power Five conference schools chasing him with offers." - Greg Powers
Insight: Wright has been invited to play in the Under Armour All-American Game
