10. DeVier Posey, Ohio State (Cincinnati, Ohio) No. 39
This hard-working, precise pass catcher is becoming one of Terrelle Pryor's top targets in only his second season. He is leading the team in receptions-per-game so far this year and reached paydirt against Toledo this weekend. He is an extremely refined pass catcher and has already exceeded his 2008 stats in every category.
The #s: 24 rec, 258 yds, 2 TDs

18. Lamaar Thomas, Ohio State (Ft. Washington, Md.) No. 68
This do-everything type player has played in all but three career games at Ohio State. While his impact on the receiving game has yet to be serious, he is starting to make an impact in the return game. He is part running back and part receiver, so expect his role to increase as the year goes on. He can make plays in space and Ohio State needs that.
The #s: 6 rush yds, 4 rec, 29 yds, 511 return yds

21. Jake Stoneburner, Ohio State (Dublin, Ohio) No. 80*
This kid is one the most athletic tight ends in the nation. In fact, he really is a glorified wide receiver. With senior Jake Ballard taking most the reps at the position currently, Stoneburner is using this season to learn the offense and get bigger and stronger. Next season, he should have the role to himself and could put up huge numbers. He redshirted last season.
The #s: 2 rec, 30 yds
