#302 –> #186

Jayden has earned a ton of D3 attention and he’s close to a D2 prospect in my opinion.

Jayden plays very similarly to Preston Bohnet Preston Bohnet 6'2" | 195 lbs | ATH Grand Ledge | 2025 State MI , as written in my tall stock risers article. Jayden has an explosive release and is a phenomenal deep threat. His first highlight features an excellent route where he burns the DB and catches an underthrown ball. At 1:11, Jayden sits in his route and makes a nice catch, with a defender closing in. Overall, Jayden runs clean routes and is one of the best weapons in the River Cities Alliance. I think there’s an excellent chance that Jayden becomes an early difference maker on a D3 squad, or a developmental guy on a D2 roster.

Season Highlights

Highlight Tape

Jayden is someone who carries a ton of his team’s offensive production on his back. He’s undoubtedly one of the best athletes in the River Cities Alliance and should earn more college opportunities.

Jayden is the clear-cut WR1 for Sparta this season. Although Sparta fell short against Wayland, Jayden had himself a great game.

Jayden’s first highlight (below) shows a phenomenal post route. Jayden has a good release, and quickly gets open over the middle of the field. The coverage was blown, but still a great job taking the top off of the defense and converting the explosive TD. The rest of the tape shows off a few good comeback routes, and a few more deep routes.

Great week for Jayden. 7 catches for over 100 yards is a great day for anyone. Jayden also had a lot of opportunities for YAC. If he had broke one or two more tackles, he could have had another explosive play.

Jayden was heavily limited last season after an injury that required surgery. Still, he played well with a limited workload. Working out of the slot, Jayden was a solid possession target in the intermediate area of the field. Plus, he’s athletic enough to earn separation consistently. Like I said, last season was very limited for Jayden, so he’s ranked at #305 until he proves that he can be the star player he’s advertised as.
