For the most part, you can teach a wideout how to run a route. You can train a guy to put on weight, and you can put a player through enough practices for him to get better at catching the football.
Height? You can't teach that. That is why it was somewhat big news when 2017 wide receiver Xavier Jenkins (6-foot-5, 195 pounds, Valdosta, GA) announced his commitment to Georgia.

Jenkins is only a three-star prospect, but he still has time to learn a lot about the wide receiver position. Of course, UGA could also move him to tight end because of his size, but either way, the Dawgs just gained a HUGE target for Jacob Eason to throw to in the future.
