Brunswick
Branyan Nichols, RB – Branyan is a tremendous athlete and technically sound runner and blocker. He is quickly climbing the recruiting boards in NE Ohio. He runs behind his pads and had 1 cut ability with burst. I am impressed with his ability to accelerate in the secondary and run away from defenders. He does the little things well: blocking, catching, and making people miss. He plays multiple sports and carries a 3.5 GPA.

He is a very good block destroyer with great lockout and escape. His pass rush is impressive and he comes around edge with great bend. The most impressive part of his game is his high motor; he is always around the ball and closes with NFL like speed.

He gets vertical quickly and open in the voids. When the ball is in the air, he attacks it with his hands and his eyes. He has great hips and wiggle in the open field. He has great speed and is a threat every time he touches the ball to score. At DB he has really good technique and can lock anyone down. He will climb the ranks this camp season.
