Strongest programs first (how strength is made). Warm: an offer, visit or camp in the last 60 days, or an official visit in the last 120. Cool: contact in the last 180. Cold: older, or a decommit. These are the offers on record, not every offer made.

His best-fitting offers first; pick any 4 of Braylon's 2 to compare. Green is the best in each row. Room counts the players at his spot with two or more years left. Players like him: up to five past recruits whose offer boards looked most like his and who signed at that school, from classes whose careers are over; a real season means 100+ passes, 50+ carries, 15+ catches, 25+ tackles, 3+ sacks or 2+ interceptions. Offensive linemen and defenders from classes before 2016 are not in that row: the box score does not count linemen's work and has no tackles before 2016. History, not a forecast for him. Green on the scheme row: it plays the front or the offense his role fits. How fit is made.

No rate for a real season here: the stats can judge none of those, because the box score has no tackles before 2016. History, not a forecast for him.

Past boards are offers at signing day; his is the board he holds today (Nov 12, 2026).
