Dylan Raiola Scouting Summary
Charles Power
03/21/22

Advanced arm talent with the ability to make a wide variety of high-level throws as a high school signal-caller. Was identified as a top arm talent and quarterback in the 2024 cycle early on in his high school career. Physically developed at around 6-foot-3, 220 pounds with a 9.75-inch hand. Has continued to add mass later on in his high school career. Owns a natural, loose throwing motion with arm dexterity to deliver off-platform and from multiple arm slots. Showed a deep catalog of throws as a sophomore. Easily drives the ball to all levels of the field. Showed off one of the cycle's best deep balls at the Elite 11 Finals. Played both under center and in the shotgun as a junior. Ahead of the curve as a ball-handler and in the quick passing game. Shows good footwork and awareness in the pocket. Capable of creative plays in the face of pressure. Completed 64% of his passes for 2,287 yards (8.7 yards per attempt) and 21 touchdowns against 5 interceptions as a junior. Primarily a pass-first quarterback as a junior, not running for many yards and finishing with -92 yards rushing - an anomaly for a top quarterback prospect. Will need to show more mobility and playmaking ability and up his overall play as a senior. Can let his throws hang at times. Transferred to his fourth high school prior to his senior season. The son of 14-year NFL center Dominic Raiola. Also a standout baseball player as a pitcher and catcher early in his high school career.

Personal Life

Football is in Dylan Raiola’s blood. He’s the son of former Nebraska and Detroit Lions offensive lineman Dominic Raiola. His father had a legendary career for Nebraska from 1998-2000, finishing as a consensus All-American and winning the Rimington Trophy for best center in college football. He played 14 years in the NFL for the Detroit Lions and became the first player in franchise history to play in 200 games with the team. Before transferring to Chandler (Arizona) High ahead of his junior season, Raiola threw for 3,341 yards and 32 touchdowns in 12 games as a sophomore at Burleson (Texas) High. In 2022, Raiola threw for 2,435 yards and 22 touchdowns while completing 64% of his passes. Away from football, Raiola is strong in his faith in Jesus Christ. “Without God, I wouldn’t be able to do anything I do now,” he said. His mother, Yvonne Raiola, played water polo at the University of Hawaii, Manoa along with three other aunts and uncles who played collegiate athletics. His sister, Taylor Raiola, plays volleyball at TCU.
