, who is another player with massive upside on both sides of the ball at either tight end or linebacker. Michael had a big junior season in which he led the team in receiving yards and was second in tackles, ending the year with 18 catches, 299 receiving yards, five touchdowns, 69 tackles, three TFLs, a sack, and two blocked kicks. Michael has a projectable frame for either position at 6’4″ and 220 pounds with room to continue filling out his frame. Offensively, Michael is a massive target who can “out-physical” DBs and is more athletic than the majority of linebackers he’s facing. He can fully extend to get the most out of his catch radius and does a great job adjusting his body to the ball. Brandt’s concentration and hands are some of the best among this class’s TE group, with big mitts that seem to catch anything near him. Solid blocker in the run game. On defense, Michael flashes a great first step out of his stance and the motor to stay in pursuit from snap to whistle. He can hold the edge well and was great at defending the run.
