Brayden McFadden, TX 6A Dist. 6 All District OLB/S, 6'1", 175, LDS, BYU Fan
Just saw this kid's tape for the first time today. He's slight for an OLB, but uses his leverage so well against bigger blockers to blow up plays. He looks tailor-made to play our SS position. Good speed. Played in one of the toughest districts in Texas. Has offers from Northwestern and Yale (smart kid). He wants BYU. Could be a mission first kid. Seems like a no brainer to go after him given considering:
1. Poor depth at Safety (especially if Vanderbilt goes to USU)
2. Strengthen ties to a part of TX that is a hotbed for talent
3. He will likely commit if offered
Already sent the link to Martzen (whose a bit busy this weekend...).
