Jeremiah Smith

Smith projects as a featured outside receiver who can win vertically, separate on intermediate routes and finish through tight coverage. Speed and play strength let him threaten either side of a corner’s leverage, while his tracking and body control expand the quarterback’s margin for error. His receiving skill is ahead of his blocking, and press consistency and sideline spacing remain the clearest technical weaknesses.

  1. 2Leonard MooreCB · Notre Dame

    Moore projects as an outside corner with starting-caliber coverage traits. He stays patient through the release, can mirror without excessive contact and locates the ball from both man and zone coverage. Heel-heavy starts in off coverage surrender leverage, while inconsistent tackling and functional strength make his work against contact less dependable than his coverage.

  2. 3Colin SimmonsEDGE · Texas

    Simmons already looks like a premier attacking edge, with 21 sacks in two seasons, an explosive first step, the bend to turn the corner and the burst to close.

  3. 4Dylan StewartEDGE · South Carolina

    Stewart is an explosive edge rusher whose get-off and ability to bend can force an offensive tackle into an early recovery. He can dip under the punch and flatten to the quarterback, but his rush becomes less effective when the first move is contained. The NFL projection starts with outside pressure and inside stunt work; a dependable every-down role requires better hand sequencing, leverage and run discipline.

  4. 5Cam ColemanWR · Texas

    Coleman projects as an outside receiver who can win downfield with size, tracking and body control. He gives the quarterback a target beyond perfectly placed throws and has useful comeback and zone-settling work underneath. Press contact, rounded cuts and inconsistent timing limit how reliably he separates. His upside is a substantial outside receiving role; the release and route mechanics need to catch up to the catch-point ability.

Quarterbacks

17 reports
  1. 6Dante MooreQB · Oregon · 6-3 · 206 lb · Jr.Moore wins with a fast release, layered touch and precise placement from the pocket, with enough mobility to escape and throw on the move.5 min
  2. 7Arch ManningQB · Texas · 6-4 · 222 lb · Jr.Manning is a developmental quarterback with the placement, pocket mobility and running ability to create offense when the original play breaks down. His best throws show accuracy beyond a perfect platform. Slow progressions and inconsistent lower-body mechanics keep that ability from translating into dependable, on-time passing. The starting projection rests on those traits, with processing and delivery still unfinished.4 min
  3. 10Dylan RaiolaQB · Oregon · 6-3 · 230 lb · Jr.Raiola is a strong-armed pocket passer with the touch and placement to run an NFL timing offense.5 min
  4. 21Darian MensahQB · Miami · 6-3 · 205 lb · Jr.Mensah is an accurate, anticipatory pocket passer who has produced at Tulane and Duke and now takes a 56-touchdown, 12-interception résumé to Miami.5 min
  5. 22CJ CarrQB · Notre Dame · 6-2 · 215 lb · So.Carr projects as a developmental pocket passer whose touch and anticipation fit a structured intermediate passing game. His compact release and connected footwork can deliver into a developing window. The execution is less reliable after a covered first read or pressure-induced reset. Limited running value and reduced deep-ball margin make timely decisions and a stable platform central to his NFL projection.4 min
  6. 37DJ LagwayQB · Baylor · 6-3 · 237 lb · Jr.Lagway is a powerful, big-armed dual-threat capable of throws and escapes that few college quarterbacks can match.4 min
  7. 39Julian SayinQB · Ohio State · 6-1 · 208 lb · So.Sayin is a precise, on-time passer whose compact release and intermediate touch can keep an NFL offense ahead of the sticks.4 min
  8. 41LaNorris SellersQB · South Carolina · 6-3 · 238 lb · Jr.Sellers is a developmental dual-threat quarterback with a strong arm, useful downfield touch and the strength to escape contact. He can extend a passing play and has enough running power for designed carries in short yardage. Inconsistent footwork, missed short throws and late decisions limit his current readiness to run an NFL passing game.4 min
  9. 51Brendan SorsbyQB · Texas Tech · 6-3 · 220 lb · Jr.Sorsby is a sturdy, aggressive quarterback with NFL arm strength, real rushing value and three seasons of starting production.5 min
  10. 63Jayden MaiavaQB · USC · 6-4 · 230 lb · Sr.Maiava projects as a developmental NFL quarterback with starter traits in a structured passing game. A compact release, deep-ball touch and sufficient arm strength create explosive throws. Late responses to rotation, drifting footwork under pressure and recurring interceptions prevent a dependable starting projection.4 min
  11. 65Drake LindseyQB · Minnesota · 6-5 · 230 lb · So.Lindsey projects as a developmental pocket quarterback with useful touch and anticipation. A compact release and same-side rhythm create a passing foundation. Back-leg deliveries, heavy progression footwork and disrupted vision under interior pressure make placement and usable velocity inconsistent.3 min
  12. 82Sam LeavittQB · LSU · 6-2 · 216 lb · Jr.Leavitt is a mobile, competitive quarterback who protects the football, creates outside structure and has already led a team to a conference title.4 min
  13. 99Nico IamaleavaQB · UCLA · 6-5 · 215 lb · Jr.Iamaleava is a long, explosive dual-threat with the arm and mobility to pressure every part of a defense.4 min
  14. —CJ BaileyQB · NC State · 6-6 · 213 lb · Jr.Bailey projects as a developmental quarterback with starting upside through arm talent and movement. He can create from imperfect platforms and has shown progression work and coverage manipulation. Variable mechanics, uneven touch and inconsistent pressure awareness prevent dependable possession-to-possession execution.3 min
  15. —Demond Williams Jr.QB · Washington · 5-11 · 191 lb · Jr.Williams is an undersized but dynamic dual-threat with enough arm strength to attack vertically and enough speed to change the math of a defense.5 min
  16. —Drew MestemakerQB · Oklahoma StateDrew Mestemaker has the touch, anticipation and mobility to develop into an NFL starter.4 min
  17. —Katin HouserQB · Illinois · 6-3 · 225 lb · Sr.Houser is an experienced, strong-armed pocket passer who arrives at Illinois after a major efficiency jump at East Carolina.4 min

Running backs

13 reports
  1. 18Jadan BaughRB · Florida · 6-1 · 225 lb · Jr.Baugh projects as a lead rushing back with power, quick feet and useful receiving ability. He can set up the block, change the contact angle with a jump cut and continue through the tackle. Too many adjustments before committing can waste an available crease. His hands and route movement support involvement beyond handoffs, with protection still requiring a separate assessment.3 min
  2. 20Kewan LacyRB · Ole Miss · 5-11 · 205 lb · Jr.Lacy projects as a lead rushing back with vision, decisive acceleration and useful receiving potential. He presses the intended track, lets the blocking develop and can change the defender’s angle with a quick cut. His balance is better through glancing contact than against a square, set tackler. The rushing role is well established; broader passing-down responsibility depends on protection and a larger receiving sample.4 min
  3. 29Ahmad HardyRB · Missouri · 5-10 · 210 lb · Jr.Hardy is a compact, powerful early-down runner who stays balanced through contact and creates yards behind imperfect blocking. His limited receiving production, awkward catching and incomplete protection technique restrict the passing-down projection. Return from a significant leg injury remained unresolved at the report's availability checkpoint.3 min
  4. 73Mark Fletcher Jr.RB · Miami · 6-2 · 225 lb · Sr.Fletcher projects as a downhill rotation back with useful protection value. Patient tempo, initial burst and continued leg drive let him attack a defined crease and finish forward. Stiff hips, rising pads and occasional overpatience limit his ability to redirect after the first lane closes.3 min
  5. 74Hollywood SmothersRB · Texas · 5-11 · 193 lb · Jr.Smothers projects as an explosive rotational back with receiving value. His decisive cut and acceleration punish an open crease, but he can hunt space instead of taking the available yardage through congestion. More disciplined decisions and dependable pass protection would allow a broader role without reducing the burst that makes him dangerous.3 min
  6. 75Isaac BrownRB · Louisville · 5-9 · 190 lb · Jr.Brown is an explosive runner who can cut and accelerate before pursuit corrects its angle. He warrants designed touches and has the movement to create beyond the blocking. Pass protection, ball security and his ability to work through direct contact remain limits on a larger workload. Those supporting skills will determine whether he becomes a regular lead option.3 min
  7. 78Jordan MarshallRB · Michigan · 5-11 · 216 lb · Jr.Marshall projects as an early-down rotation back with the patience, burst and contact balance to handle defined interior tracks. His vision is inconsistent, tight hips limit wide escapes and passing-down work remains developmental. A larger role depends on earlier protection recognition and a broader receiving contribution.3 min
  8. 92Keyjuan BrownRB · Louisville · 5-10 · 215 lb · Jr.Brown projects as a multipurpose rotation back with meaningful receiving and protection potential. He produced when Louisville expanded his carries, including consecutive 100-yard games. Independent explosive creation and sustained availability are less established than his ability to handle a complementary workload.3 min
  9. 96Antwan RaymondRB · Rutgers · 5-11 · 205 lb · Jr.Raymond projects as a shared-workload NFL back with useful passing-down potential. Patient tempo, cutback anticipation and a credible protection anchor support a broad complementary role. Outside angles, receiving consistency and limited finishing speed or overpowering strength constrain the lead-back projection.3 min
  10. 100Nate FrazierRB · Georgia · 5-10 · 205 lb · Jr.Frazier is an explosive, compact runner who reaches top speed quickly and can turn a crease into a long gain without losing his balance through contact.4 min
  11. 102Justice HaynesRB · Georgia Tech · 5-11 · 210 lb · Sr.Haynes projects as an explosive rushing contributor with lead-back upside. Patient setup, immediate acceleration and quick jump cuts create a strong one-cut foundation. Passing-down technique and sustained availability are less established, and his contact balance should not be mistaken for dependable pile-moving power.3 min
  12. 106LJ MartinRB · BYU · 6-2 · 225 lb · Sr.Martin projects as a regular rotational back with the size, footwork and contact balance to work through congestion. He adjusts around traffic and keeps runs alive without needing open-field speed to win. Passing-down contributions broaden the role, but his protection and receiving work need to become dependable enough for unrestricted third-down usage.3 min
  13. —Darius TaylorRB · Minnesota · 6-0 · 215 lb · Sr.Taylor is a patient, well-rounded running back with natural vision, receiving skill and enough contact balance to handle a varied workload.4 min

Wide receivers

  1. 1Jeremiah SmithWR · Ohio State · 6-3 · 223 lb · Jr.Smith projects as a featured outside receiver who can win vertically, separate on intermediate routes and finish through tight coverage. Speed and play strength let him threaten either side of a corner’s leverage, while his tracking and body control expand the quarterback’s margin for error. His receiving skill is ahead of his blocking, and press consistency and sideline spacing remain the clearest technical weaknesses.4 min
  2. 5Cam ColemanWR · Texas · 6-3 · 204 lb · Jr.Coleman projects as an outside receiver who can win downfield with size, tracking and body control. He gives the quarterback a target beyond perfectly placed throws and has useful comeback and zone-settling work underneath. Press contact, rounded cuts and inconsistent timing limit how reliably he separates. His upside is a substantial outside receiving role; the release and route mechanics need to catch up to the catch-point ability.4 min
  3. 16Charlie BeckerWR · Indiana · 6-4 · 207 lb · Jr.Becker projects as an outside vertical and intermediate receiver with useful special-teams experience. Long speed, tracking and strong hands let him threaten behind coverage and adjust when the corner stays close. Digs and crossers broaden the role, but physical press and inconsistent short-route separation can disrupt his timing. His strongest receiving work comes from a short stretch of expanded usage rather than a full featured season.4 min
  4. 24Nick MarshWR · Indiana · 6-3 · 213 lb · Jr.Marsh projects as a complementary outside receiver whose best routes use a vertical stem to create access to slants and intermediate in-breakers. He presents a substantial target and adjusts near the boundary, but inconsistent releases, rounded cuts and uneven catches through contact limit his case for a featured role.3 min
  5. 26Ryan WilliamsWR · Alabama · 6-0 · 182 lb · Jr.Ryan Coleman-Williams is an explosive Z/slot receiver who can take the top off coverage or turn a short completion into a scoring chance.5 min
  6. 47KJ DuffWR · Rutgers · 6-6 · 225 lb · Jr.Duff is a towering outside receiver whose catch radius, body control and contested-catch production can change the geometry of a passing game.4 min
  7. 52Mario CraverWR · Texas A&M · 5-9 · 165 lb · Jr.Craver is an explosive movement receiver whose acceleration, route flexibility and run-after-catch skill can tilt coverage from the slot or Z alignment.4 min
  8. 64Junior SherrillWR · Vanderbilt · 5-11 · 200 lb · Sr.Sherrill has raised his receiving total in every Vanderbilt season and enters 2026 with 103 catches, 1,488 yards and proven kick-return value.4 min
  9. 71Ryan WingoWR · Texas · 6-2 · 214 lb · Jr.Wingo projects as a starting outside receiver with a useful motion and designed-touch role. Size, acceleration and physical running create explosive potential downfield and after the catch. Inconsistent releases, deceleration and catch concentration prevent that athletic profile from becoming a dependable full-field receiving game.3 min
  10. 72Nyck HarborWR · South Carolina · 6-5 · 239 lb · Sr.Harbor projects as a developmental outside receiver with a defined vertical role. Unusual size and speed are now supported by explosive college production. Improving sideline routes and zone awareness broaden the fit, but inconsistent routine hands and contested finishes limit a larger weekly assignment.3 min
  11. 76Wyatt YoungWR · Oklahoma State · 6-0 · 199 lb · Jr.Young projects as a complementary receiver with slot and selected outside value. Release craft, zone awareness and quick acceleration after the catch give his production a technical foundation. Less dominant top speed, a smaller frame and occasional concentration lapses limit the projection against tight NFL coverage.3 min
  12. 81Bryant Wesco Jr.WR · Clemson · 6-2 · 195 lb · Jr.Wesco projects as an outside Z with vertical starting potential. Loose movement, long strides and downfield tracking create late separation without requiring rare pure speed. Press strength, routine catch reliability and short-route precision remain uneven, while a surgically treated neck-and-back injury makes sustained availability a material part of the projection.4 min
  13. 83Omarion MillerWR · Arizona State · 6-0 · 207 lb · Jr.Miller is a long, explosive boundary receiver who tracks the deep ball and consistently plays above the rim.4 min
  14. 90Isaiah Sategna IIIWR · Oklahoma · 5-10 · 185 lb · Sr.Sategna projects as a slot and movable outside receiver with immediate punt-return value. Acceleration, short-area separation and creativity after the catch support a real receiving role. Physical press and contact finishes are less dependable, keeping isolated perimeter usage more selective.2 min
  15. 125Duce RobinsonWR · Florida State · 6-6 · 230 lb · Sr.Robinson is a towering outside receiver whose long stride, catch radius and breakout 2025 production can stretch a defense vertically.4 min
  16. —Adrian NortonWR · MarshallNorton projects as developmental outside-receiver depth, with explosive college production but limited current technical evidence. An 831-yard Akron season and a strong Marshall finale establish receiving value. Uneven week-to-week involvement and unestablished press, route-break and contested-catch detail prevent a stronger NFL projection.3 min
  17. —Devin McCuinWR · Ohio State · 6-0 · 189 lb · Sr.McCuin projects as a movement slot receiver whose acceleration, route tempo and lateral agility create separation and yards after the catch. Natural hands support clean targets in space. Outside and contested-catch work are less established, limiting a broader receiving projection.3 min
  18. —Greg Gaines IIIWR · FIUGaines projects as a developmental receiver with size, substantial Rhode Island production and promising route timing in FIU spring work. He can find space and present a dependable target, but those practice gains still need to hold up through a sustained FBS role. Separation against stronger coverage remains the central limit on the projection.3 min
  19. —Ian StrongWR · California · 6-4 · 210 lb · Sr.Strong projects as a complementary outside possession receiver. Body control, tracking and strength through contact keep him available in tight windows. Limited clean vertical separation and modest creation after the catch place a premium on route leverage, timing and a dependable finish.3 min
  20. —Jayce BrownWR · LSU · 5-11 · 175 lb · Sr.Brown projects as a Z or slot receiver with a clear vertical contribution and a path to a starting role. Long speed, tracking and route discipline support more than a straight-line deep package. A lighter frame, disruption by physical coverage and uneven routine hands limit isolated boundary usage.3 min
  21. —Keshaun SingletonWR · Auburn · 6-3 · 220 lb · Jr.Singleton projects as a developmental outside receiver with size, catch radius and contact balance. Two active USF seasons produced 1,285 yards and 11 touchdowns. Limited suddenness, unproven releases against stronger press and incomplete intermediate route detail leave the NFL role less established than the college scoring production.4 min
  22. —Major EverhartWR · TCUEverhart projects as a developmental receiver and return candidate. Documented speed, college kick-return work and selected production after the catch provide a roster path. A modest receiving workload leaves route breadth and consistent availability within an NFL passing game unestablished.3 min

Tight ends

8 reports
  1. 15Jamari JohnsonTE · Oregon · 6-5 · 290 lb · So.Johnson projects as a starting Y tight end with useful receiving value from the line, wing and slot. Reliable hands, route feel and post-catch balance allow him to contribute beyond a blocking assignment. His in-line work is functional rather than consistently forceful, and sharper route pace would help him separate from NFL man coverage. He needs a larger featured-target sample to establish the ceiling of the receiving role.5 min
  2. 19Trey'Dez GreenTE · LSU · 6-7 · 237 lb · Jr.Green projects as a receiving tight end who can work detached from the formation and create a large target through body control and tracking. Long strides and deliberate route tempo let him cover ground, while his ability to position his frame protects the catch point. Inline strength and inconsistent blocking technique limit a traditional every-down Y role. His receiving value is ready to lead the deployment plan; the blocking assignments need to remain selective.3 min
  3. 49Terrance Carter Jr.TE · Texas Tech · 6-2 · 245 lb · Sr.Carter is a compact, explosive receiving tight end who can align across the formation and create extra yards after the catch.4 min
  4. 80Andrew RappleyeaTE · Penn State · 6-4 · 242 lb · Jr.Rappleyea has the density, short-area movement, route flexibility and blocking temperament to become a true three-down tight end.4 min
  5. 95Benjamin BrahmerTE · Penn State · 6-7 · 250 lb · Sr.Brahmer projects as a receiving tight end in a complementary NFL role. He finds open coverage space, works free with his hands and presents a large target on seams and scoring-area routes. Limited functional strength and inconsistent inline blocking prevent a complete attached-tight-end projection.3 min
  6. 114Peter ClarkeTE · Temple · 6-6 · 265 lb · Sr.Clarke projects as a tight end with starting potential through both inline blocking and physical receiving. He can move defenders, work into space and use his frame at the catch point. Modest lateral suddenness limits isolated route separation, with blocking detail and route breadth still developing.3 min
  7. 116DJ VonnahmeTE · Iowa · 6-4 · 241 lb · Jr.Vonnahme projects as a complementary receiving tight end with useful movement after the catch. Effective releases, body control and late hands support attached and slot targets. Inconsistent possession, limited blocking leverage and a short starting record prevent a complete inline projection.2 min
  8. —Zack MarshallTE · Michigan · 6-4 · 245 lb · Sr.Marshall projects as developmental tight-end depth with an inline opportunity and prior special-teams experience. His receiving role began to grow in 2025, but route breadth and dependable attached blocking remain unestablished. Shoulder surgery interrupted the practice time available to develop those assignments.3 min

Offensive tackles

13 reports
  1. 8Trevor GoosbyOT · Texas · 6-7 · 325 lb · Jr.Goosby has the range, length and strength to become a starting NFL left tackle, with enough movement to contribute across the run game.5 min
  2. 9Jordan SeatonOT · LSU · 6-5 · 307 lb · Jr.Seaton projects as a pass-first NFL left tackle. Edge range, recovery athleticism and forceful hands allow him to handle true dropback protection, including reps that begin imperfectly. Run-block fit, pad level and sustain trail those tools. He has first-round upside, with a wider range of outcomes until the movement becomes dependable contact and control.5 min
  3. 27Trevor LauckOT · Iowa · 6-5 · 314 lb · Sr.Lauck is a developmental left tackle with useful hand placement, recovery balance and run-game movement. He can reset after an imperfect first exchange, but wide speed, chest exposure against power and inconsistent run-block sustain prevent a firm starting projection.3 min
  4. 35Cayden GreenOT · Missouri · 6-5 · 324 lb · Sr.Green is a powerful, experienced blocker who strengthened his NFL tackle case during a successful first season on Missouri's left edge.4 min
  5. 43Carter SmithOT · Indiana · 6-5 · 313 lb · Sr.Smith projects as a starting offensive lineman with a legitimate opportunity at left tackle and a possible move to guard. Balance, inside hand timing and controlled second-level work are his strongest traits. Average apparent length and limited recovery against wide speed create the main uncertainty about staying outside.4 min
  6. 53Jacarrius PeakOT · South Carolina · 6-4 · 305 lb · Sr.Peak projects as a zone-oriented tackle with starting ability if his pre-injury movement returns. Lateral quickness, patient sets and experience on both sides support immediate swing-tackle utility. A serious knee injury, light frame and inconsistent anchor leave current availability and power matchups unresolved.4 min
  7. 57Ian MooreOT · Ohio State · 6-6 · 312 lb · So.Moore projects as a developmental tackle with length, quick feet and encouraging recovery awareness. His Miami work showed useful angles after an initial loss. One college start leaves sustained protection, run blocking and readiness on either side less established than the physical tools.3 min
  8. 67Melvin SianiOT · Texas · 6-6 · 317 lb · Sr.Siani projects as a developmental tackle with the range to reach moving targets and deliver force on the perimeter. His movement gives the run game options. Balance after contact is less reliable, and that instability also affects protection. The Texas move raises the level of competition for a blocker whose feet and frame do not yet stay consistently connected.3 min
  9. 87Niki ProngosOT · Stanford · 6-7 · 315 lb · Sr.Prongos projects as a developmental tackle with useful movement, quick hands and recovery balance. He can reach a sound position, but high pads and inconsistent hand placement expose his chest and weaken the anchor. His recent starting experience is substantial despite a late introduction to football.3 min
  10. 94PJ WilliamsOT · SMU · 6-5 · 313 lb · Sr.Williams is an experienced, technically steady right tackle whose length and balance give him a credible path to an NFL starting job.4 min
  11. 121Lance HeardOT · Kentucky · 6-6 · 325 lb · Sr.Heard projects as a developmental tackle with the frame and power to overwhelm a defender when his position is sound. Inconsistent balance and hand placement let rushers dictate too many reps. The Kentucky move provides another setting to establish control; his NFL value depends on keeping his feet under him and delivering that power without lunging.3 min
  12. —Drew AzzopardiOT · Washington · 6-7 · 322 lb · Sr.Azzopardi projects as developmental right-tackle depth with a possible starting path. Size, accurate initial hands and direct-power resistance provide the foundation. Limited knee bend, high contact and slow recovery after a missed strike make the first exchange unusually important.3 min
  13. —Jacob PontonOT · Texas Tech · 6-8 · 315 lb · So.Ponton projects as a developmental right tackle with length, grip strength and useful movement for his frame. He can control a block and finish when his position is sound. Inconsistent feet, hands and pad level too often turn protection into a recovery rep. He needs earlier, more balanced contact to make the physical tools dependable.3 min

Interior linemen

7 reports
  1. 40Greg JohnsonIOL · Minnesota · 6-6 · 250 lb · So.Johnson projects as a potential starting guard with center experience that adds roster flexibility. He brings force at contact and enough movement to protect inside. Inconsistent balance and hand placement undermine those advantages, allowing defenders to redirect the engagement. His technique needs to become more reliable before the versatility translates into dependable NFL snaps.3 min
  2. 69Anthonie KnappIOL · Notre Dame · 6-5 · 304 lb · Jr.Knapp projects as a potential starting guard with substantial college tackle experience, useful run-game angles and a willingness to finish. Moving inside suits his build and decision-making. He still needs to keep his feet and hands connected through contact; quick changes of direction can disrupt the block before he re-establishes control.3 min
  3. 110Evan TengesdahlIOL · Cincinnati · 6-3 · 323 lb · Jr.Tengesdahl projects at guard, where his strength and forceful hands can stabilize the pocket and create movement in the run game. He controls blocks best with a defined target in front of him. Quicker defenders can change the angle before his feet adjust, making lateral control the main obstacle to a dependable starting role.3 min
  4. 119Samson OkunlolaIOL · MiamiOkunlola projects at guard, where his size, reach and strength can be paired with useful short-area movement. His physical tools create a starting ceiling, but elevated pads, inconsistent hand placement and late strikes prevent reliable control. Tackle experience adds developmental flexibility; it does not yet establish an NFL swing-tackle role.3 min
  5. —Brandon BakerIOL · Texas · 6-4 · 315 lb · Jr.Brandon Baker’s move inside gives his NFL projection a more specific shape.3 min
  6. —Charles JagusahIOL · Notre Dame · 6-5 · 330 lb · So.Jagusah projects as developmental interior-line depth with limited tackle experience. At 6-foot-5 and 330 pounds, his athletic tools warrant development, but five college appearances and two starts do not establish dependable technique. Injury interruptions and unresolved return timing make readiness especially uncertain.3 min
  7. —Ezomo OratokhaiIOL · Northwestern · 6-4 · 310 lb · So.Oratokhai projects as a developmental interior lineman with an established guard foundation and a possible center fit. Strength, explosiveness and football understanding support the move. Inaccurate first steps can waste that force, and snapping and protection responsibilities remain unproven in regular-season center work.3 min

Guards

3 reports
  1. 50Austin SiereveldG · Ohio State · 6-5 · 325 lb · Jr.Siereveld projects primarily to guard, with tackle experience providing a secondary roster option. Strong hands, grip and a stable base support close-quarters blocking. Limited lateral recovery, stalled feet after contact and uneven stunt recognition make changing rush paths his most difficult assignment.3 min
  2. 79Luke MontgomeryG · Ohio State · 6-5 · 312 lb · Sr.Montgomery projects as a starting guard candidate in a movement-oriented run game. Active feet, well-timed combinations and range on pulls are his strongest traits. Narrowing his base, lunging and allowing the hands to widen can undermine otherwise useful strength at contact.3 min
  3. —Anthony DonkohG · Penn State · 6-5 · 334 lb · Jr.Donkoh is a 334-pound power blocker with starting experience at right tackle and right guard, and his best NFL path is likely inside.4 min

Centers

2 reports
  1. 34Kade PieperC · Iowa · 6-3 · 298 lb · Sr.Pieper is an athletic, technically advanced interior blocker whose quick hands and leverage already translate to both zone and gap runs.4 min
  2. 118Iapani LalouluC · Oregon · 6-2 · 329 lb · Sr.Laloulu projects as a starting center candidate whose mass, active hands and recovery against power support interior protection. His run blocking is less consistent. Dropped eyes, stopped feet and lunges in space allow defenders to escape an initially forceful block.3 min

Edge rushers

17 reports
  1. 3Colin SimmonsEDGE · Texas · 6-3 · 246 lb · Jr.Simmons already looks like a premier attacking edge, with 21 sacks in two seasons, an explosive first step, the bend to turn the corner and the burst to close.5 min
  2. 4Dylan StewartEDGE · South Carolina · 6-5 · 250 lb · Jr.Stewart is an explosive edge rusher whose get-off and ability to bend can force an offensive tackle into an early recovery. He can dip under the punch and flatten to the quarterback, but his rush becomes less effective when the first move is contained. The NFL projection starts with outside pressure and inside stunt work; a dependable every-down role requires better hand sequencing, leverage and run discipline.4 min
  3. 30Yhonzae PierreEDGE · Alabama · 6-3 · 253 lb · Sr.Pierre projects as a versatile edge with early-down run value and a useful role in a pressure package. Snap anticipation, quick diagnosis and closing burst drive his disruption. He needs a more connected rush sequence and controlled tackle finishes to become a dependable three-down starter.4 min
  4. 44Damon Wilson IIEDGE · Miami · 6-4 · 250 lb · Sr.Wilson is a twitchy, productive speed rusher whose burst, hand quickness and pursuit effort can change a passing down.4 min
  5. 45Matayo UiagaleleiEDGE · Oregon · 6-5 · 272 lb · Sr.Uiagalelei projects as a starting base end with the length and strength to hold a run edge. A polished cross-chop, long-arm power and persistent effort create pass-rush value, but an inconsistent get-off and delayed counters limit the number of clean wins.4 min
  6. 54Will HeldtEDGE · Clemson · 6-6 · 260 lb · Sr.Heldt is a long, disciplined edge defender whose pursuit effort, hand activity and run awareness support an NFL rotation role. He has starting potential, but ordinary burst, limited cornering and incomplete rush transitions prevent a stronger pass-rush projection.4 min
  7. 58Kenyatta Jackson Jr.EDGE · Ohio State · 6-6 · 265 lb · Sr.Jackson projects as an early-down edge rotation player with starting potential if his block separation improves. Length, hand force and patient run leverage provide the foundation. Ordinary opening burst, limited bend and delayed counters restrict his immediate pass-rush value.3 min
  8. 70Jordan RossEDGE · LSU · 6-5 · 246 lb · Jr.Ross is a long, explosive LSU transfer whose first step and bend give him real passing-down upside, but 22 games without a start and fewer than 300 defensive snaps keep the grade highly provisional.4 min
  9. 77Taylor WeinEDGE · Oklahoma · 6-4 · 270 lb · Jr.Wein projects as a potential starting end with active hands, sustained effort and useful run discipline. He creates rush openings by sequencing moves rather than relying on an overwhelming speed or power advantage. More consistent execution is needed to turn those narrow openings into pressure against NFL tackles.3 min
  10. 85Boubacar TraoreEDGE · Notre Dame · 6-5 · 253 lb · Jr.Traore is a long, explosive edge defender with the first step, bend and developing hand variety to become a starting NFL pass rusher.4 min
  11. 111Teitum TuiotiEDGE · Oregon · 6-3 · 263 lb · Sr.Tuioti turned relentless pursuit, compact power and active hands into 16 tackles for loss and 9.5 sacks in 2025.4 min
  12. 115Princewill UmanmielenEDGE · LSU · 6-4 · 244 lb · Sr.Umanmielen projects as a rotational edge rusher with the acceleration and active hands to create an early advantage. His 2025 Ole Miss production supports that pressure role. When tackles get square, his control is less reliable. A starting projection depends on better block separation and more dependable edge responsibility against the run.3 min
  13. 127AJ GreenEDGE · Louisville · 6-5 · 206 lbGreen projects as a rotational edge rusher with selected interior passing-down value. Length and comfort on line games provide multiple attack angles. Hands that climb too high limit extension and separation, keeping his contact technique behind the alignment flexibility.3 min
  14. 128Anto SakaEDGE · Texas A&M · 6-4 · 255 lb · Sr.Saka projects as an immediate rotational pass rusher with a path to starting. Outside acceleration and speed-to-power force tackles to account for more than the corner. Inconsistent counter timing, option reads and anchoring against combinations limit the every-down role.3 min
  15. —Adam TrickEDGE · Texas Tech · 6-4 · 250 lb · Sr.Trick projects as a rotational edge rusher with active hands, a varied rush plan and consistent effort through the finish. He has produced sacks without relying on one move. His ability to anchor and separate against larger blockers is less dependable, limiting the early-down role until his functional strength improves.3 min
  16. —Bryce YoungEDGE · Notre Dame · 6-6 · 260 lb · Jr.Young is a developmental edge prospect with unusual length and promising movement, but limited college evidence. The current record supports a rotational projection, not a dependable starting role. His primary rush move, counter sequence and ability to anchor against college starters remain unestablished.4 min
  17. —Jonathan MaldonadoEDGE · Ole Miss · 6-6 · 250 lb · Sr.Maldonado projects as developmental edge depth with a long frame and meaningful college production. At 6-foot-6 and 250 pounds, reach provides a possible first-contact advantage. A dependable rush sequence and run anchor remain less established than his dimensions and Nevada finishing totals.3 min

  1. 11David StoneDL · Oklahoma · 6-3 · 312 lb · Jr.Stone projects as an attacking interior rotational defender with starting upside. Initial quickness can win the gap, while strength and active pursuit give him value when the first step does not free him. His gap reads, pad level and counter rush are less developed. The early NFL role is to disrupt from varied interior alignments while improving the control needed for a larger early-down workload.3 min
  2. 13William EcholesDL · Ole Miss · 6-2 · 312 lbEcholes is a powerful, disruptive interior defender who turned his first season as a starter into 68 tackles, 11.5 tackles for loss and five sacks.5 min
  3. 17A'Mauri WashingtonDL · Oregon · 6-3 · 330 lb · Sr.Washington projects as a run-first interior defender with the power to move a blocker and the lateral movement to work across the front. He has handled a full starting workload and can contribute from more than one alignment. Late recognition of combination blocks, elevated pads and delayed separation limit the consistency of his control. His pass-rush value is presently stronger as pocket compression than as a dependable individual finishing threat.4 min
  4. 25Justin ScottDL · Miami · 6-4 · 303 lb · Jr.Scott is an attacking interior defender with unusual first-step burst for a player above 300 pounds. Heavy hands and alignment flexibility give him starting upside, but late strikes, inconsistent responses to double teams and an unfinished counter sequence favor a rotational NFL role initially.5 min
  5. 28Ahmad Moten Sr.DL · Miami · 6-3 · 300 lb · Sr.Moten’s first step can beat a guard before the block develops.3 min
  6. 56Quincy Rhodes Jr.DL · Arkansas · 6-6 · 273 lb · Sr.Rhodes is a long, explosive defensive lineman whose first-step quickness and inside-outside rush ability produced 15.5 tackles for loss and eight sacks in his first year as a starter.4 min
  7. 61A.J. Holmes Jr.DL · Texas Tech · 6-3 · 300 lb · Sr.Holmes makes the strongest NFL case as a quick interior disruptor whose hands and leverage can let him play above his dimensions.3 min
  8. 117Tavion GadsonDL · Kentucky · 6-5 · 303 lb · Jr.Gadson projects as a developmental interior starter with a forceful first step and extension that can disrupt a blocking combination. His length also gives him alignment flexibility. He is less dependable when the initial surge stalls or the run requires him to hold his gap. Better counters and controlled block separation would broaden his role.3 min
  9. —Alex JanuaryDL · Texas · 6-5 · 308 lb · Jr.Limited evidenceJanuary is an interior development prospect with actual Texas starting experience and recorded backfield disruption. The current evidence establishes his college role more clearly than his technique. Detailed contact and rush observations date to 2023 recruiting work, leaving a dependable NFL run or pass-rush identity unresolved.2 min
  10. —Elinneus DavisDL · Washington · 6-3 · 312 lb · Jr.Davis projects as a run-focused interior rotation player. Low pads, a broad base and hand extension let him hold a lane and finish nearby plays. Re-fitted contact can displace him after the initial anchor, and limited burst and bend narrow his passing-down role.3 min

  1. 89Bear AlexanderDT · Oregon · 6-3 · 302 lb · Sr.Alexander projects as an interior rotation defender with useful run strength and more movement than a stationary block absorber. Improved shedding supports early-down work, but high pads, an inconsistent base and unreliable hand placement weaken control against combinations. The pass-rush plan remains less developed than his physical tools.3 min
  2. 107Ben RobertsDT · Michigan State · 6-3 · 325 lb · Sr.Roberts projects as developmental interior depth. At 6-foot-3 and 325 pounds, he has the frame for early-down work, but current anchor consistency and repeatable rush technique remain unestablished. Interrupted availability limits the college sample, while the detailed movement and block-response evidence dates to recruiting work.3 min
  3. —C.J. FiteDT · Arizona State · 6-2 · 305 lb · Sr.Fite projects as an early-down interior tackle whose low pads and compact build help him stay square against the run. He has the starting experience to handle a rotation, but must finish more consistently after controlling the block. His pass rush remains secondary to his ability to occupy space and close running lanes.3 min

  1. 33Sammy BrownLB · Clemson · 6-2 · 235 lb · Jr.Brown is a fast, physical off-ball linebacker with the range, pressure production and coverage movement to develop into an every-down NFL starter. Aggressive fits, inconsistent block separation and late recognition of layered routes make his current play less controlled than his athletic ability.4 min
  2. 38Kyngstonn Viliamu-AsaLB · Notre Dame · 6-3 · 230 lb · Jr.Viliamu-Asa projects as an attacking off-ball linebacker with three-down movement skills and pressure value. Quick recognition and acceleration create disruption before blocks develop. Recurrent left-knee injury makes retained range and availability central to that projection; uncontrolled tackle entries and square contact from larger blockers are the principal football limits.5 min
  3. 46Xavier AtkinsLB · Auburn · 6-0 · 210 lb · Jr.Atkins fits as a weak-side linebacker who can pursue to the perimeter and threaten protections as a blitzer. His acceleration and willingness to strike create disruption. Uncontrolled tackling and aggressive coverage decisions can give yardage back. Keeping his path and finish under control is the main requirement for a dependable starting role.3 min
  4. 48Chris ColeLB · Georgia · 6-3 · 235 lb · Jr.Cole is a long, explosive linebacker whose range, coverage movement and blitz timing give him three-down starter upside.4 min
  5. 55Ty'Anthony SmithLB · Texas (last played) · 6-0.5 · 185 lb · Jr.Limited evidenceSmith projects provisionally as developmental off-ball depth with special-teams potential. Speed, contact intent and recorded disruption provide a foundation, but detailed college technique remains limited. Texas confirmed his dismissal in August 2026, and his next team and playing opportunity are unresolved in this edition.2 min
  6. 66Rasheem BilesLB · Texas · 6-1 · 222 lb · Sr.Biles is a fast, disruptive linebacker who slips through traffic, closes from distance and gives Texas several ways to pressure or cover.4 min
  7. 105Suntarine PerkinsLB · Ole Miss · 6-2 · 220 lb · Sr.Perkins fits as an off-ball linebacker with coverage and pressure value. He can carry a seam, mirror a back’s break and accelerate through a narrow rush opening. At 6-foot-1 and 220 pounds, he is less suited to a steady diet of direct contact with offensive tackles. His range gives him a usable NFL role; unreliable tackling and difficulty escaping larger blockers limit how broadly that role can expand.4 min
  8. 108Whit WeeksLB · LSU · 6-3 · 223 lb · Sr.Weeks projects as a starting off-ball linebacker with quick run recognition and range that also carries into coverage. He can reach the fit before blocks close, but larger blockers create problems when he cannot avoid contact. More dependable separation and tackling are needed to sustain that role. His interrupted 2025 season also leaves availability to establish.3 min
  9. 130Christian AlliegroLB · Ohio State · 6-4 · 241 lb · Sr.Alliegro projects as a developmental off-ball linebacker with a useful pressure role and starting upside. Range, force and productive blitz angles support defined attacking assignments. Early triggers, lost ball location in traffic and inconsistent coverage depth limit more complex read-and-react work.2 min
  10. 133Tony RojasLB · Penn State · 6-2 · 236 lb · Jr.Rojas projects as an off-ball coverage linebacker with the range to pursue and pressure from depth. Smooth zone movement, quarterback awareness and selected tight-end matchups support passing-down value. High tackle entries reduce stopping strength, and a return from ACL injury must preserve the movement that drives the projection.3 min
  11. —Ethan WesloskiLB · Oklahoma StateWesloski projects as developmental off-ball linebacker depth. Three productive North Texas seasons provide substantial experience, but detailed block-defeat and coverage technique are less established. His preparation and production support further evaluation without proving a broad NFL assignment.3 min
  12. —Kam RobinsonLB · VirginiaRobinson is a rangy off-ball linebacker who can close downhill, contribute in coverage and create turnovers. His aggression produces disruption when the read is clean. Late recognition and premature gap commitments can take him out of position, while blockers can alter his pursuit path. He needs more assignment consistency before the defense can expand his freedom.3 min
  13. —Maverick BaranowskiLB · MinnesotaBaranowski projects as a run-oriented off-ball linebacker with substantial starting experience and improving downhill recognition. He gets to the fit with purpose and plays aggressively, but coverage limits may narrow his passing-down role. His path to regular NFL snaps depends on controlling that aggression and avoiding coverage matchups that force a substitution.3 min

Cornerbacks

16 reports
  1. 2Leonard MooreCB · Notre Dame · 6-2 · 197 lb · Jr.Moore projects as an outside corner with starting-caliber coverage traits. He stays patient through the release, can mirror without excessive contact and locates the ball from both man and zone coverage. Heel-heavy starts in off coverage surrender leverage, while inconsistent tackling and functional strength make his work against contact less dependable than his coverage.4 min
  2. 12Ellis Robinson IVCB · Georgia · 6-0 · 180 lb · So.Robinson is a fluid cover corner with the speed and hip movement to stay involved through a route change. His zone awareness and ability to communicate adjustments complement that athleticism. He can give up the first release and then rely on recovery speed, while a lean frame and inconsistent tackle finish create problems against larger receivers. The projection is a developing coverage corner whose recognition and contact reliability must catch up to his movement.4 min
  3. 23Kelley JonesCB · Mississippi State · 6-4 · 195 lb · Jr.Jones is a long outside corner who closes quickly and makes it difficult to throw over him.3 min
  4. 31Ashton HamptonCB · Clemson · 6-2 · 205 lb · Jr.Hampton is a long, physical outside corner with the speed, press skill and catch-point control to become a high-end NFL starter.4 min
  5. 36Zabien BrownCB · Alabama · 6-0 · 194 lb · Jr.Brown projects as a starting outside corner with patient man technique, fluid transitions and the closing burst to challenge throws from off coverage. Aggressive quarterback reads create takeaways but also cost him route position. More disciplined eyes and less recovery grabbing are necessary for consistent coverage.3 min
  6. 98Brice PollockCB · Texas Tech · 6-0 · 195 lb · Sr.Pollock projects as an outside starting candidate in a zone-oriented secondary. Route recognition, quarterback vision and proven ball production are his carrying traits. Choppy transitions and inconsistent hand placement make repeated isolated man coverage less dependable than his best movement suggests.3 min
  7. 104O.J. Frederique Jr.CB · Miami · 6-0 · 185 lb · Jr.Frederique projects as a developmental outside corner with a man-coverage foundation. Patient feet, fluid hips and reactive recovery let him stay connected to a receiver. Off-coverage recognition, zone spacing and downfield contact are less consistent, while block shedding and availability limit the broader projection.3 min
  8. 109Chris PealCB · Syracuse · 6-1 · 200 lb · Jr.Peal projects as an outside corner in a zone-oriented defense, with starting potential. Recognition, closing timing and reach work best with vision on the quarterback. Excess cushion and inefficient lower-body technique can leave him too far away to contest despite a correct read.3 min
  9. 120Jamari SharpeCB · Indiana · 6-1 · 188 lb · Sr.Sharpe fits an outside zone role built on awareness, closing ability and willing run support. He can recognize the route, drive toward the ball and finish the assignment. Isolated press coverage is less established. His full Indiana starting season supports the projection, but a broader NFL role depends on developing control at the line of scrimmage.3 min
  10. 122Christian GrayCB · Notre Dame · 6-0 · 186 lb · Sr.Gray projects as an outside starting-corner candidate with fluid movement and the tracking ability to finish downfield. He stays involved through the catch point and has produced takeaways in important situations. Physical routes and changes of pace can compromise his positioning. More consistent contact management is needed to carry the coverage tools through a full NFL assignment.3 min
  11. 124Vicari SwainCB · South Carolina · 6-0 · 193 lb · Jr.Swain projects as an outside corner with press-and-mirror ability and added return value. He can turn with the receiver and recover when the initial positioning slips. Coverage from cushion, tackle finish and contact discipline are less reliable. The return role offers an early route onto the field while his defensive responsibilities develop.3 min
  12. 132Jyaire HillCB · Michigan · 6-2 · 190 lb · Sr.Hill projects as an outside corner with starter potential in a defense that lets him read and drive on the play. His closing movement, frame and run support give him value in varied coverages. Man coverage is less consistent when he must follow the receiver through the full route, limiting how often he can be left isolated.3 min
  13. 135DJ McKinneyCB · Notre Dame · 6-1 · 185 lb · Sr.McKinney projects as an outside starting candidate with length, quick reactions and fluid hip movement. Press and off alignments both offer useful starting points. Inconsistent angles, late ball location while trailing and uneven tackling keep the technical finish behind his movement ability.3 min
  14. —A.J. HarrisCB · Indiana · 6-1 · 189 lb · Sr.Harris is a physical corner whose press strength and competitive coverage against larger targets offer an NFL role. Speed, short-area suddenness and inconsistent zone awareness make a full-time outside assignment uncertain. Downfield grabbing and uneven tackling also prevent an automatic move into a broader hybrid role.3 min
  15. —Jontez WilliamsCB · USC · 5-10 · 200 lb · Sr.Williams is an experienced, ball-productive outside corner with patient feet, strong route awareness and the toughness to finish in space.4 min
  16. —Xavier ScottCB · Illinois · 5-11 · 195 lb · Sr.Scott projects as a nickel with starting traits in coverage and useful physical involvement near the formation. Quick feet, fluid hips and route awareness let him respond to changing inside assignments. Recovery speed after losing a step and finishing against larger runners are less dependable, while a surgically treated foot injury leaves current movement unverified.3 min

Safeties

10 reports
  1. 14KJ BoldenS · Georgia · 6-0 · 195 lb · Jr.Bolden projects best as a space safety in split-safety or multiple-safety coverage. He can overlap deep routes, move suddenly downhill and help organize the secondary. His range is more useful with vision and room to approach than in repeated box collisions. False steps, aggressive pursuit angles and difficulty with larger blockers limit the contact-heavy assignments he can reliably handle.4 min
  2. 32Brauntae JohnsonS · Notre Dame · 6-2 · 200 lb · So.Johnson projects as a movable starting safety with post range, length to match bigger receivers and natural ball skills. He is most effective playing from space. Early route jumps expose deeper coverage, and his current strength does not support heavy box duty.4 min
  3. 59Dashawn SpearsS · LSU · 6-3 · 209 lb · Jr.Spears is a long, fluid safety with the range and ball skills to develop into a versatile NFL starter.4 min
  4. 60Koi PerichS · Oregon · 6-1 · 200 lb · Jr.Perich projects as a movable NFL safety whose best work comes with vision on the quarterback and route distribution. Range, natural hands and return ability add playmaking value. Aggressive false steps, difficulty separating from blocks and less proven extended man coverage limit how broadly he should be deployed.4 min
  5. 62Ty BenefieldS · LSU · 6-3 · 208 lb · Sr.Benefield is a big, explosive safety who can play from depth, cover the slot and strike downhill with unusual force.4 min

  7. 97Jelani McDonaldS · Texas · 6-2 · 201 lb · Sr.McDonald projects as a starting safety with range from depth, dependable open-field tackling and selected man-matchup value. Long strides and length let him overlap routes and finish outside his frame. Tight transitions and slower route recognition limit repeated assignments against sudden slot receivers.4 min
  8. 101Jaylen McClainS · Ohio State · 6-0 · 201 lb · Jr.McClain is a fluid, assignment-sound safety who covered efficiently and tackled reliably in his first season as an Ohio State starter.4 min
  9. —Corey MyrickS · Clemson · 6-3 · 200 lb · Jr.Myrick is a developmental safety with range and recognition from depth. He covers ground well when the route develops in front of him, making zone and split-field coverage his clearest fit. Sharp changes of direction expose limitations in man coverage. His Southern Miss starting season provides a production base; the Clemson move raises the level of competition.3 min
  10. —Jelani McLaughlinS · San Diego State · 6-0 · 205 lb · Jr.McLaughlin projects as developmental safety depth with an established special-teams experience base. Regular appearances and a productive bowl game provide college evidence, but sustained defensive coverage and run support remain limited. Earlier anticipation and physical traits come from recruiting work rather than a complete current film sample.3 min
