Expert Analysis

Too low? Honestly, probably.
Braylon had a nice season for Hudsonville, including some great postseason performances. Most notably, Braylon is a great route runner. Several good comebacks, and good timing with his QB. Plus, a good couple of screens and blocks.
I love Braylon’s foundation. He’s a good route runner and obviously has great coaching. The couple of things that hold Braylon back are A. Size and B. Lack of explosive plays.
Size speaks for itself. Very, very hard to be recruited at WR at any size. With the explosive plays, Braylon should work on speed and/or contact balance to give him a higher floor.

Braylon was someone that I included in last summer’s Hudl Discoveries series, and I’m excited to be watching his brand-new junior season tape.
His tape kicks off with something I highlighted as a strength of his over the summer: out routes. The first play shows a solid 10-yard out and great timing by the QB to get that ball in there. I will say that I’d like Braylon to get out of his break a step faster, but at the High School level, that’s a good route. At 0:28, Braylon takes the screen pass, and does a good job of immediately working upfield (I watch so many receivers waste time in these situations. Braylon attempts to hit the hole, but his teammate fails the block and the DB makes a solid tackle. Solid play, good speed, and all I’d improve there is better contact balance.
The last play I’ll mention is at 1:03. Braylon takes the jet sweep and immediately runs into the teeth of the defense. The blockers were far too slow for the developing play, so, even if the play was designed for Braylon to cut inside, I would much rather he attempt to find the edge and work the open space.
A ton of improvement from last year to this year. Great production. But still a lot to improve. I could easily see Braylon being a D3 prospect this spring if he has good camp performances!
