His best-fitting offers first; pick any 4 of Zayden's 10 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. How fit is made.

The 50 past recruits with the boards closest to his, from classes 2010 to 2022, whose careers are over. A real season: 100+ passes, 50+ carries, 15+ catches, 25+ tackles, 3+ sacks or 2+ interceptions. College seasons from CFBD rosters, on record for 33 of 50. The stats can judge a real season for 13 of those, because the box score does not count offensive linemen's work and has no tackles before 2016. History, not a forecast for him.

Past recruits whose offer boards looked most like his: same position, about the same size, offers from programs of the same strength, about as many. Past boards are offers at signing day; his is the board he holds today (Nov 12, 2026). Classes 2016 to 2025 are thin in our record today, so most matches come from 2010 to 2026. 9 of these 10 have finished their draft window. History, not a forecast for him.
