UCLA Football: 5 incoming freshmen who could start in 2018
Four-star Bryan Addison committed to UCLA back on Dec. 10 as an athlete, but it looks as if he will project as a receiver for UCLA in 2018. That doesn’t come as much of a surprise when you watch his highlights as he excels in open field and the ball in his hands.
Addison’s concentration when the ball is in the air, coupled with his speed and athleticism, make him one of the best prospects in the class, not just UCLA signees. He stands 6-foot-5 and weighs in at 180 pounds. He could afford to add some muscle at the next level and will do that once he gets to campus this summer, but he has all the tools to be a day one starter.
As mentioned before, Jordan Lasley and Darren Andrews are gone which means the Bruins are going to have to find two new top receivers. Theo Howard is the early favorite to be the No. 1 guy, but don’t sleep on Addison.

It’s not often you see a 6-foot-5 freshman receiver with speed and athleticism that Addison possesses, but he’s got the tools to be a special receiver. He could be a favorite target for whoever starts at quarterback in 2018.
