Malachi Carter

Malachi Carter enters 2021 a the Jackets defacto top wide receiver following the departure of Jalen Camp. He’s gone for just 36 catches for 530 yards and five touchdowns across his last two seasons, but at 6-foot-3, he’s proven he can be at least a jump ball threat with that 14.7 yard per catch tally. While Georgia Tech is in it’s second year transitioning from the triple option offense, they remain a likely run-first attack this year, led by a budding star in Jahmyr Gibbs, Jordan Mason and dual-threat QB Jeff Sims. Carter will need two things if he’s to provide a breakout campaign, and they seem to go hand in hand. Carter had 23 targets in his final five games, at least four in each, but it resulted in only six catches. Improved accuracy from Sims, and efficiency from Carter, will go a long ways in determining his potential.
