Prospect: WR Brady Boyd
Projected Position: Wide Receiver
Status: SI All-American Candidate
Vitals: 6-foot-1, 175 pounds
School: Southlake (Texas) Carroll
Committed to: Minnesota

Frame: Long and skinny, with budding muscle. Average width across shoulders, chest. Sinewy arms. Slender, tightly-wound thighs and trunk. Plenty of room for additional mass at next level.

Athleticism: Outstanding hand-eye coordination. Quick feet; wastes little motion in and out of cuts. Clocked 4.44 40-yard dash in 2019, but plays a step slower. Very good overall body control, especially in the air.

No purchase necessary. 50 U.S./D.C. 18+. Entry opens 3PM ET Dec 6, 2026 and closes 8PM ET Dec 18, 2026. Void where prohibited.See for complete details. The College Football Playoff (CFP) is not a sponsor or administrator of this contest.

Instincts: Hands catcher. Capable of making difficult catches outside body, including spectacular one-handed grabs. Regularly wins jump-ball scenarios. Dangerous after catch due to speed and balance; not especially elusive. Comfortable working entire field with route tree.

Polish: Advanced route-runner. Needs to vary release, but very quick off LOS. Stacks while attacking leverage, and breaks with subtlety, nuance in shoulders, head. Willing, effective blocker.

Bottom Line: Boyd’s ball skills and route-running ability should help him see the field early at Minnesota. Must prove long speed and overall athleticism translates against Power-5 competition. Either way, projects as multi-year contributor for Gophers, with clear starter potential.
