Byrum Brown's 2025 season looks like a legitimate dual-threat breakout: 3,158 passing yards and 28 touchdowns through the air, plus 1,008 rushing yards and 14 scores on 5.8 yards per carry. The model's career-value board slots him at No. 221 overall for the 2027 cycle, but no public consensus board has picked him up yet, so there's nothing outside our own number to check it against.

The grade is held down by how many boards rank him top-100, production trajectory, and his charted drop rate avg.
The grade is the 0-to-1 score the board sorts by — it only means something next to the rest of this class, which is why the rank above it is the number to quote.
Not enough to go on yet — no public board ranks him and there's no production or testing data to anchor a career projection.
