Faizon Brandon's physical upside and skill set remind us of Geno Smith at the same stage. Brandon was more filled out at the same stage. 

Accurate passer with the physical traits to make him one of the top quarterback prospects in the 2026 cycle. Measured around 6-foot-3.5, 200 pounds with a 9.25-inch hand before his senior season. Has the frame to add more good weight. Flashes a live arm, particularly in the camp setting, easily generating zip on his passes. Piloted his team to a state title as a junior, completing 77.1% of his passes for 2,814 yards (13.1 YPA) and 35 touchdowns against 2 interceptions. A good athlete with solid speed, running for 625 yards and nine touchdowns as a junior. Does a good job limiting mistakes and avoids putting the ball in harm's way. Has the skill set to stress defenses with his arm and legs. An effective distributor in operating the quick passing game. Also played basketball. Plays in a conservative high school offense that offers few downfield passing opportunities. Will benefit from honing his footwork and lower body mechanics once he works with college coaches. One of the youngest top quarterbacks in the cycle, turning 17 years old in June before his senior season. Will need to continue gaining more useful passing reps, but has early-round upside if developed properly. 

Faizon Brandon Scouting Summary

Arguably the best performance at the Night at Neyland camp. His frame and build at his age for the position is exactly how you would draw it up. Strong, dense build with great weight distribution throughout his frame and still moves around comfortably with twitch. Top-tier arm talent who throws with excellent zip. Ball jumps out of his hand and has tremendous velocity. Gets the ball up and out quickly. Has the ability to adjust arm angle and throw off-platform comfortably. Layers the football well and can make throws at every level of the field. Put on a performance that was truly impressive.
