No. 5 – WR Justyn Ross
Somehow, Justyn Ross has flown under the radar this season, but he put up another solid performance for Clemson in the ACC Title Game. pic.twitter.com/DQ4TFsNKYT

Overview:
Ross isn’t the only wide-receiver on this list you’ll see, but he’s a game-breaker that the Ohio State secondary needs to find. He might technically be the No. 2 guy in the offense in 2019, but he’s shown in the past that he can be the guy in any system in America.
With Trevor Lawrence at quarterback, Clemson will spread the ball all over the field in the passing game and look to exploit mismatches on the outside and vertically down the seam. Ross leads the team in receptions and will most likely be targeted often in the Fiesta Bowl too. He goes underneath a lot, but don’t let that lull you to sleep.
Stats:
55 catches for 742 yards (13.5 avg.), 8 touchdowns
