Scouting Report: Strengths
- Bradley plays with a smoothness and balance, and Bradley shows a knack for setting up defensive backs.
- Fearless in traffic. Very good hand-eye coordination with large, soft hands. Plays confident. High-points the ball. Strong possession receiver.
- Has the size, length, and strength to defeat press jams. Can make the spectacular catch. A decent open-field runner with some agility and the ability to break tackles.
- Bradley fights his way off the line of scrimmage against press coverage, showing quick, violent hands and good balance.
- As a blocker, he is outstanding, consistently locating, controlling, moving, and pancaking smaller DBs and more than holding his own against linebackers
- He’s broad-shouldered, long-limbed and a smooth athlete who showed the ability to make plays downfield.
- Does a nice job locating and tracking deep passes and is a legitimate vertical threat. Willing to go up and attack the ball.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Bradley lacks the twitch to create consistent separation, and despite his size and ability to track the ball downfield, Bradley isn’t great on contested catches.
- Comes off the snap high and upright, and doesn't get to top speed quickly. Not sudden or elusive.
- Does not always use his hands to secure deep throws, allowing the ball into his pads and chest.
