Played in all 12 games as a freshman and has stated ever since. Bryant is very fast and athletic and he has been well coached. He bats a lot of balls down because of his elite catch up speed. As a junior McFadden recorded 28 tackles and nine pass breakups. Graduated from McArthur High School in 2000 and was a highly recruited football player, a USA Today All-USA first-team selection as a senior and the No. 1 defensive back in the nation and the top over-all prospect in the state of Florida by SuperPrep. Bryant has excellent ball skills and easily turns and finds the ball in the air. He has excellent size and by the end of the 2004 season he should be mentioned as one of the elite corners in the country. He missed the last couple of regular season games in 2003 due to a groin/hip flexor injury, but appears to be fully recovered because he played a great game against Miami in the 2004 opener. Bryant raised his draft stock with a solid 2004 performance.
