Top 3 most impactful True Fr. at WR in the last 30 yrs

Laying some ground rules, this only factors in your True Freshman year (not your entire career or redshirt Freshman year). I consider impactful to represent arguable the best WR on the team, offensive difference maker, eye test. Don't focus as much on stats. In order:
1. Sammy Watkins- No brainer was just a stud his Freshman year
2. Deandre Hopkins- Probably should have been a DB his Freshman year, but he literally was the only WR on the team that year that could actually catch. He was our passing offense
3. Antonio Williams- Controversial take, but the Offense just looks better when he's out there. He plays like he's the most confident WR we have. Although the numbers don't necessarily indicate it, he also looks like our best WR just from the eye test
Honorable mention to the Deon Cain and Aaron Kelly. We've had a ton of high profile 5* guys over the year that didn't make the cut (ie. Roscoe Crosby, Airese Currie, Charone Peake).

It would be about 31 years on Ronald and he was a RB not a WR.

Antonio is not even in the Top 10 after just 4 games.

Oops...I did not understand the assignment. Moving Sammy and Ross up to one and two. Altavista Scott at three.
