PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Jalen Royals is an instinctive, dynamic wide receiver with an advanced understanding of route-running and a natural feel for finding open spaces in coverage. His ability to separate in the short-to-intermediate game, combined with strong hands and YAC ability, makes him a dangerous playmaker. While he lacks elite suddenness and struggles with physical press coverage, he is an excellent zone-beater who can line up at Z or in the slot. He is an ideal fit for West Coast and spread offenses that prioritize timing, quick separation, and YAC opportunities.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
High-End Starter Potential (65-69)
A player expected to become a top-tier starter within their first few years. They possess strong physical tools and good technical skills but may have some limitations in their game. With development, they can reach near-elite levels and provide consistent impact at their position.
