About Julian
Expert Analysis
Alin Edouard | Prep Redzone Scout
Julian put together a strong season, finishing with over 800 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns, and his impact shows up in the way he consistently helped move the offense and finish drives.
He plays with good awareness as a receiver knows how to find space in coverage and stays patient in his routes instead of forcing movement. That feel for timing makes him a reliable option when plays break down or when the offense needs a steady completion.
In scoring situations, he really stands out. 13 touchdowns speaks to how often he was trusted near the goal line, and he consistently found ways to get open when defenses were most focused on taking away big plays.
He’s not just a volume receiver either he brings efficiency to his touches. Whether it’s settling into zones or adjusting to throws outside his frame, he does a solid job giving his quarterback a clean target. Cromartie hold offers from kansas , kentucky and baylor and more.

Read EvaluationAlin Edouard | Prep Redzone Scout
Julian is a wide receiver who plays with a confident tempo and a natural understanding of how to manipulate defenders throughout his routes. He doesn’t just run to spots—he changes speeds, sells his breaks, and forces defensive backs to hesitate before committing.
He shows strong ability to adjust mid-route, whether it’s settling into soft areas of zone coverage or working back to his quarterback when the play extends. Julian is comfortable catching the ball in stride or in contested situations, using timing and positioning rather than just pure athleticism to win.

Read EvaluationHerman Thomas | Prep Redzone Scout
Cromartie has incredible explosion out of his stance, attacking the space and getting past defensive backs playing off. He is a playmaker, and a game-changer who can generate a big play at any time. Cromartie is strong in the short, intermediate, and deep game with the ability to create separation with his strength or speed. He is a dominate contested catcher, using his large frame to either out-jump or overpower the opposition. He has the open field speed to outrun a defense and has shown to be a challenge to bring down with one defender. Cromartie impressed last season with 825 yards receiving and 13 touchdowns on 42 catches.

Read EvaluationAlin Edouard | Prep Redzone Scout
Julian runs a polished route tree with crisp, clean breaks that make him difficult to jam at the line. His out and in-breaking routes are sharp, showing quick hips and timing that put defenders on their heels. On verticals and go routes, he sells each move with subtle head fakes and footwork, giving himself a step before the ball arrives. He tracks the ball well on curls, comebacks, and crossing patterns, adjusting smoothly to underthrown or high passes. Julian also shows savvy on option routes, reading leverage and coverage to consistently put himself in the best position to make the play.
