Expert Analysis
Ed OBrien | Prep Redzone Scout
Minor is a versatile, high-upside athlete who impacts the game on offense, defense, and special teams. At wide receiver, he shows strong ball skills and playmaking ability after the catch. Minor can turn short throws into explosive gains with balance, vision, and elusiveness. I was able to see a few things in his highlights. Minor sells routes well, creates separation with subtle movement, and finishes in the red zone on slants, fades, and double moves. Minor is especially dangerous once the ball is in his hands.
On special teams, Minor is a threat as a returner. There’s a return touchdown on his highlights where he shows burst and acceleration as he weaves through traffic.
Defensively, Minor lines up at free safety and flashes range, awareness, and closing speed. He tracks the ball well in the air, breaks on throws quickly, and makes plays on the football. A few of his highlights include interceptions and pass breakups in the end zone. Minor’s size allows him to cover ground and compete at the catch point.
To continue developing, Minor would benefit from showing more route polish at the receiver. Adding more open-field tackling clips on defense would help complete his evaluation. Overall, Minor is a true multi-phase athlete with size, ball skills, and versatility, capable of impacting the game in several ways. His highest upside at the next level may be at the safety position.
