FILM EVALUATION
WHAT SHOWS UP ON FILM
Braylon’s film shows an explosive, versatile defender whose quickness, hand speed and play strength allow him to create pressure from both edge and interior alignments.
FIRST STEP + EDGE BEND
Wins early with first step quickness, clears the tackle’s hands and bends around the corner before working through the running back and closing on the quarterback.
INTERIOR TWITCH + HAND SPEED
Uses a sudden jab to disrupt the guard’s balance, clears the hands quickly and attacks the inside shoulder with vertical push from a reduced alignment.
DOUBLE TEAM CONTROL + DISENGAGEMENT
Anchors against the double team with inside hands and a strong base, tracks the quarterback through contact and disengages to finish the rep in pursuit.

FILM EVALUATION SUMMARY
THE OVERALL PICTURE
Braylon’s film presents an explosive defensive front prospect with the quickness, bend and hand activity to threaten the edge. His ability to reduce inside and create disruption with twitch, leverage and short area burst adds valuable positional versatility to his profile.
He also shows the base strength and awareness to remain active through contact, control blockers and disengage into pursuit without losing sight of the football. Continued development in counters, hand placement and rush plan sequencing can help him turn an already intriguing athletic foundation into a more complete pass rush profile.
