Trayson Blair is an emerging talent out of Virginia who flashes big-time potential for the Waynesboro Little Giants. While his available film is limited, what he’s shown is more than enough to confirm he’s a high-ceiling prospect with natural athletic ability.
Standing at 5’9” and 170 pounds as an eighth grader, Blair already possesses ideal size entering high school—and with weight training and continued physical development ahead of him, his frame projects extremely well at the next level.
The first thing that jumps off the screen is his elite speed and acceleration. Once Blair gets into the secondary, it becomes a foot race—and very few defenders are running him down. He pairs that speed with quick-twitch agility, balance, and quick decision-making, allowing him to cut on a dime and explode through lanes.
One standout play shows Blair getting hit in the hole, putting a hand on the turf to steady himself, then exploding for another 15 yards—a sign of rare balance and core strength for his age.
His impact isn’t limited to offense. On special teams, he’s a home-run threat—a true house-call hero. With elite vision and the ability to change direction in tight spaces, Blair turns broken plays into highlights.
Last summer, Blair attended Football Hotbed Middle School Camp, where he was recognized as a top performer—further validating his potential against quality talent.
The lone question surrounding Blair’s evaluation is the overall level of competition he faces locally. It would be exciting to see him compete on a national stage—where his skillset should translate smoothly and prove his ability against top-tier prospects.
Trayson Blair is a name to watch. With his combination of size, speed, and natural instincts, he has every tool to become a major impact player at the next level. A true young baller—one worth seeing in person.
