Brandon McGhee Brandon McGhee 6'0" | 170 lbs | DB Auburn | 2026 State AL is a lockdown DB who’s provided great production in Auburn’s secondary this season.

“Right off the bat, it’s clear that McGhee is extremely gifted in coverage, especially zone. He has great instincts, is quick to react, and can track the ball and adjust himself to create huge plays on the ball. McGhee is a ball hawk who excels at finding and securing his hands on the ball, frequently hauling in impressive interceptions for his defense last year.

Against the run, McGhee is just as dominant. He can make huge plays down by the line of scrimmage, but is even more impressive in the open field- consistently taking great pursuit angles and wrapping up to prevent should-be scoring plays.“

McGhee has consistently locked up WRs and made game-changing plays out in the secondary over the last two seasons. He’ll be going up against a talented group of pass catchers this week- we’re all going to have to keep track of him.

Brandon McGhee Brandon McGhee 6'0" | 170 lbs | DB Auburn | 2026 State AL is a lockdown DB out of Auburn who was a huge piece of their defense last season, providing great coverage and run support against some talented 7A offenses last fall. McGhee is one of the most impressive zone coverage CBs I’ve watched in a while-he’s rarely beaten over the top, is quick to adjust, sometimes covering multiple targets on a single play, and does a great job using his eyes to track the ball, coming away with some incredible PBUs and INTs. McGhee is also incredibly talented as a run defender- he flies downfield from the secondary to wrap up and deliver some huge hits to the ball carrier, never allowing for any big gains to the outside. McGhee is a really well-rounded CB with plenty to build off of going into next season, it was seriously impressive watching his tape from last fall. McGhee put together a great season, ending his junior year with 41 total tackles (24 solo), and 3 INTs. McGhee has seen his recruitment open up a ton this offseason, picking up offers from North Alabama and Gardner Webb over the past few weeks.
