Expert Analysis
Matt Di Domenico | Prep Redzone Scout
Jaylyn Melton is a 5’10”, 180-pound junior LB from University Prep that has excellent vision. He can read, dissect, and attack plays that develop in the backfield. Plenty of times, he was able to sniff out RB screens, play actions, and even draws. When a pulling offensive linemen or tight end came in his way, Melton was able to use his quickness to get around the block, then attack the ball carrier. In both coverage situations as a linebacker or safety, he did an outstanding job at baiting the QB to have an opportunity to make a play on the ball. As a running back, Melton has the ability to change directions in a sudden burst, then fight for extra yardage. If a clear running lane was not there in the A or B gap, he did a marvelous job of bouncing the run to the outside for a positive gain. Jaylyn is a very humbled player that has a lot of goals that he wants to accomplish. Those goals he has set out includes making first team AGR, lead Section 5 in rushing yards & interceptions, and of course he wants to take care of his body resulting in no injuries during the 2023 season.
