Djay Braswell Scouting Summary
Charles Power
06/22/22

Big-play running back with the speed to hit home runs from anywhere on the field. One of the faster top running back prospects in the 2023 cycle. The Georgia 2A state champion in the 100 (10.72 seconds) and 200 (21.99 seconds) meters as a junior. Pairs that speed with a solid, 5-foot-11, 200-pound build. Ran for 1,081 yards on just 80 carries as a junior, good for 13.5 yards per carry. Consistently pulls away from defensive backs once he gets to the second level. Often employed on outside runs, where he and use his top-end speed to beat defenders to the edge. Shows good leg drive and contact balance to break tackles. Capable of sticking his foot in the ground and getting upfield in a hurry. A solid pass catcher out of the backfield in camp and 7-on-7 settings. Can look to make risky cutbacks across the field that are unlikely to translate to the college level. Shows a high-end skill set as a runner, but has a lighter workload and sample size relative to other top backs.
