Probably the easiest guy to add to the list has been a solid backup corner for the past two seasons, and now it is his time to be the guy. While Pride possesses elite speed for the college and NFL level, Bracy is no slouch in that department as well – but is a more natural corner when it comes to ball skills.

Bracy isn’t the biggest guy around, but he also played the run much better in 2019 than his freshman year, and one should expect he will only continue to build confidence and strength entering year three.

While he wasn’t an elite recruit coming out of high school, he was one of the staff’s top targets in the 2018 class at the corner in part because of his offensive tape. If there is a safe bet on this list to produce at a very high level in 2020 and really put their stamp on the college football map, my bet would be Bracy.
