Same premise stated above. Although there might not be an abundance of prospects coming in, Brunswick made sure to make the early splashes count. Formerly a Danbury 2025, was unranked previously because of a lack of seasonal tape. A full season tape was posted just 20 days ago, begins with Edwards showing off his arm length, batting a ball away through a players catch point from behind. My kind of corner, 6’3, arms that can scratch his knees, a corner you can trust to play man (half-field). A willing tackler, special at the LOS too. Showcases a real back pedal, has enough confidence in himself to not panic if a wideout wins off the snap, which is rare on tape. Many reps showcasing perfect hip flipping, I hardly ever use the word perfect. Physical, annoying, and handsy when in phase. One of the best corner tapes I’ve plugged in in some time. Don’t be surprised to see this young man see serious FBS interest soon.

Kieran Edwards sounds like an intriguing prospect with his physicality and potential for growth. Standing tall at 6’3” and weighing 190 pounds, he already possesses the size and build coaches desire in a cornerback. His ability to engage at the line of scrimmage and disrupt opposing wide receivers shows promise, and his willingness to contribute in tackling and blitzing adds versatility to his game. As he continues to develop, honing his skills in locating the football while it’s in the air could elevate his performance even further. Despite his limited experience in football, Edwards’s potential shines through, and it will be fascinating to witness his journey and adaptation to the competition in New Jersey.

Film Highlight Review: Kieran is a CB who possesses above-average size and length. On film, Edwards proves he can win in both man and zone coverage and does a good job of playing the WR with the ball in the air. Kieran is impressive as a run defender. He is physical and an extremely reliable tackler in space. I like the way Edwards plays CB, with toughness and discipline. Kieran also runs track.Offers: Lehigh (1/29)Projection: His physical measurables (height and weight) align him as a Division 1 FBS/ FCS prospect
