Elias Pearl is very similar to how Deebo Samuel looked in high school. Both were around the same size (185 pounds) with similar movement patterns, ability after the catch, and a sneaky large catch radius. Samuel would go on to gain mass while in college, but at there are striking similarities at the same stage. 

Versatile wide receiver who is both a YAC monster and technician. Measured in at 5-foot-10, 183 pounds with plus length (6-foot-5 wing-span) at the Rivals Camp in Miami coming out of his junior season. Tested as a top athlete at the Rivals Camp, ripping off a 4.5-second 40-yard dash, a 10 foot broad jump and 32.4-inch vertical. Turned in a breakout junior season, accounting for over 1,300 yards and 24 touchdowns from scrimmage. Has outstanding foundational movement skills with impressive lower body flexibility. Able to easily stack corners off the line with his acceleration and long stride. Long arms for his frame pair with coordination to result in a wide catch radius. A natural hands catcher who shows high-end ball-tracking skills to locate the football over his shoulder. One of the more dangerous wide receiver prospects after the catch in the 2027 cycle. Dynamic with the ball in his hands and maximizes yards after the catch. A slasher in space, quickly cutting to make defenders miss. Slips out of arm tackles and fights through contact. Shows his ability with the ball in his hands as a return man, taking back three kicks as a junior.  May not have prototypical height, but has the skills to play all over the formation. A competitive player who makes key plays in big moments of games. Well-rounded skill set and versatility give him one of the highest floors of 2027 wide receiver prospects.
