Michigan State football had a quiet 2019 National Signing Day, but the class came together nicely. Who will have an impact right away?

The early signing period in college football has taken away from the luster of National Signing Day in February, and that means that little drama unfolded, especially for Michigan State.

The Spartans did lose Aaron Young to Rutgers and Alante Brown didn’t sign in the early period, ultimately picking Texas Tech, but Michigan State landed Tre’Von Morgan in the process, so it wasn’t all bad news. On top of that, the Spartans finished with the No. 30 class in the nation — right around where Mark Dantonio’s classes usually fall.

We could see a number of guys have an instant impact in 2019 given the amount of early enrollees the Spartans have along with just college-ready players. Who will impact the green and white right away as freshmen?

There’s a reason Michigan State remained open to taking another receiver in its 2019 class after the early signing period, and it’s because the coaching staff believes that the incoming freshmen could compete for playing time right away given the departure of Felton Davis III and injury problems the Spartans suffered in 2018.

Tre Mosley isn’t the same type of receiver that Davis III was, but that doesn’t make him any less of a priority to get on the field for Michigan State.

Mosley is 6-2, 180 pounds and has plenty of speed to go along with plus-hands and strong route-running ability. To top it all off, he’s an early enrollee, so the chances he sees the field are automatically increased. He’s going to have the playbook down by spring ball.

Michigan State could use some depth at the position and he will be prepared to ease into a decent role with guys like Cody White, Jalen Nailor and Darrell Stewart Jr. leading the way. Cam Chambers also adds depth, but could split time with Mosley.

Mosley is the No. 580 overall prospect and 73rd-best receiver in the class, per 247Sports.
