Las Vegas Raiders 2020 NFL Draft prospect profile: Brandon Aiyuk
By BD Williams
Resume and Accolades
After transferring from Junior College, Aiyuk played in 25 games for the Sun Devils, totaling 1666 career receiving yards and 11 touchdowns. He added on another 1078 total return yards in his college career with one punt return going for a touchdown.
Twice in 2019 he was named the PAC 12 player of the week, once for offense and once for special teams, and finished his career as a First Team All PAC 12 receiver. His senior year he averaged a whopping 18.3 yards per reception on 65 receptions, while hauling in eight touchdowns.
Aiyuk performed well at the combine posting a 40 inch vertical and 10’8” broad jump. His 40 time of 4.5 may not be the blazing fast speed you’d expect after watching his tape, but its well within the range of what the premier wide receivers in the NFL run in that event.
His arm length became something of a spectacle at the combine being the only player at this years event to have over 33 inch arms while standing under 6 feet (5’11 5/8 officially). He also boasted an 80 inch wingspan which was matched only by wide receivers and tight ends who stand at least 6’3 or more. His catch radius is definitely one of his shining attributes and he has the length to back it up.
