Draft Profile: Bio
Brandon Coleman, a former 3-star recruit from Trinity Valley Community College High School, began his collegiate football career at TCU with high expectations. Rated as a 3-star prospect by both ESPN and 247 Sports, he demonstrated early on that he could meet and exceed the demands of college football. As a freshman in 2020, Coleman saw action in 4 games at right tackle, logging 115 snaps—allowing just one quarterback hurry and zero sacks or quarterback hits.
Coleman's performance improved steadily, and as a sophomore in 2021, he played in 11 games, taking 479 snaps mostly at left guard. He, conceded only five quarterback hurries and no sacks or hits. His junior year in 2022 marked a significant milestone as Coleman was recognized with an Honorable Mention All-Big 12 Conference award after participating in 13 games and amassing 885 snaps at left tackle. He allowed 14 quarterback hurries, eight quarterback hits, and three sacks on the year.
In his final year, 2023, Coleman continued to excel playing in 11 games and covering 720 snaps, splitting his time between left tackle and left guard. His senior season's performance led to a Second-team All-Big 12 Conference selection, despite allowing 17 quarterback hurries and three quarterback hits, with no sacks while shouldering the role as team captain.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Elite athletic skills -- Made Bruce Feldman's 'Freaks List' at number 61. He wrote: "Coleman, unrated by the recruiting sites coming out of high school, has an impressive 35-inch vertical jump and regularly runs 18 MPH. He squats 600 pounds, benches 400 and power-cleans 375"
- Broad, powerful frame with a notable wingspan, providing natural leverage against opponents.
- Excels in run blocking with the ability to secure and pin defenders, showcasing his physicality and effectiveness in displacement on contact.
- Displays a solid pass protection technique, keeping his hands ready to strike, which helps establish control early in engagements.
- Possesses a patient approach to double teams, maintaining a wide base to enhance stability and effectiveness.
- Shows good athletic ability for his size, with quick footwork that aids in managing space and mirroring rushers effectively.
- Capable of executing complex blocking schemes, evidenced by his proficiency in GT counters and climb blocks.

Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Prone to technique lapses, particularly with hand placement and maintaining balance, which can lead to inconsistency in leverage and effectiveness.
- Occasionally struggles with high-side rushes due to delayed recovery movements and susceptibility to speed-to-power moves.
- Can improve anchor strength as evident from some struggles against powerful defensive linemen, especially when injured.
- Inclined to overextend in pass protection, which can compromise his base and lead to quick losses against agile defenders.
- While versatile, his transition to different line positions can lead to penalties and adjustment challenges.
