Rolder (6’2"/238) emerged as a steady second-level producer for Michigan, posting 69 tackles with 10 havoc plays, 6.5 TFLs, and 10 run stops while finishing at a strong 90.8 percent tackle rate. His 62.3 percent run-tackle share underscores a downhill profile, consistently inserting into gaps with square pads and finishing through contact. Rolder flashes useful blitz utility, generating 10 pressures on 68 rushes (14.7 percent pressure rate) with two sacks and a quick 2.41 time-to-first-pressure, highlighting his trigger and closing burst. He wins with processing speed and range rather than overwhelming power, showing the ability to flow sideline-to-sideline and stay clean when working in space.Athletically, Rolder checks key boxes with a 9.53 RAS, pairing adequate size with above-average explosion (36-inch vertical) and strong agility testing (4.26 shuttle, 7.00 three-cone), giving him the movement profile to hold up in subpackages. He projects as a rotational WILL linebacker and core special teamer early, with a pathway to a starting role if he continues to refine block deconstruction and play strength inside.
Williams (6'4/256) was a player on radars after he picked up 7.5 sacks and 13.5 tackles in his junior year at Duke, but he didn’t have nearly the same production in 2025 with just two sacks and nine tackles for loss in his 14 contests. He has a chance to be an immediate contributor on special teams however, as he blocked five kicks in his four years in the ACC. He didn’t test particularly well either in Indianapolis, as he ran a poor 4.89s dash for a player who projects to play outside, although his 1.68s 10-yard split is more promising. The hope is that the 2024 version is more indicative of his talents than his 2025 campaign, and the ability to make an impact with a potential blocked kick won’t hurt his chances of making the roster.
Spending a fourth round pick on a kick returner is certainly a choice. Wetjen, 24, is a decorated return specialist whose elite traits should earn him an NFL roster spot. He spent two seasons at Iowa Western Community College before transferring to Iowa in 2022. In each of the past two seasons, Wetjen won the Jet Award, given to college football’s best return specialist, was named Big Ten Return Specialist of the Year and earned first-team All-Big Ten honors. He was a first-team All-American in 2024 and a Consensus All-American in 2025. Among P4 return specialists with 20-plus returns, Wetjen’s 28.5 yards per kick return ranks second, and he tops the charts with 26.8 yards per punt return and a 1.1 missed tackles forced average.
The Raiders traded No. 134 and No. 208 for No. 122. Following a redshirt season, Washington (6’1/223) got the ball rolling at Buffalo in 2022 with a 150-625-7 rushing line, leading the Bulls in all three of those stats. After falling under 100 carries in his next campaign, Washington transferred to New Mexico State, where he ran for 725 yards and eight scores on 157 attempts. One final transfer put him at the top of Arkansas’s backfield. He finally posted a true breakout season, running for 1,070 yards and eight scores on 167 totes. Washington also took a notable step forward as a receiver, compiling 228 yards and one score on 28 grabs. With 17 carries for 15+ yards, Washington’s speed was apparent on tape, but no one was prepared for his NFL Combine performance. Washington blazed a 4.33 40 with a 39” vertical and a 10”8 broad jump. At his size, the Isaac Guerendo comparison made itself. Washington’s Arkansas breakout puts him in a class above Guerendo as a prospect, but it’s also fair to say Washington has yet to live up to the potential of his absurd athleticism. He will need to hone his footwork and vision in the pros to make that happen. Washington will get a chance to backup the Raiders’ 2025 rookie running back, Ashton Jeanty.
Woodaz, 22, was a rangy, productive four-year player and two-plus-year starter who wore the green dot at Clemson. In 2024, Woodaz totaled 83 tackles, 10 TFLs, three sacks, three forced fumbles, six passes defended and three interceptions. In 2025, he totaled 70 tackles, seven TFLs, 0.5 sacks and three passes defended. He should contribute right away on special teams and could eventually compete for a starting role.
Muhammad (6’0"/182) is a fluid, instinctive cover man whose bona fide athletic profile (9.51 RAS, 4.42 forty) translates directly to sticky coverage on tape. He allowed just 13 receptions on 27 targets (48.1 percent) for 134 yards across 352 coverage snaps, posting an excellent 0.38 yards per coverage snap with a 37.4 NFL QB rating against. Muhammad’s 18.5 percent forced incompletion rate and two INTs with three pass breakups underscore his ability to close windows and disrupt at the catch point despite a lean 6’0/182 frame. His foot quickness and route-matching instincts show up in-phase, where he consistently mirrors stems and drives downhill with decisive trigger timing. In run support, Muhammad contributed 26 tackles with 8.0 havoc plays, though his 81.3 percent tackle rate and lack of mass show up in missed finishes and limited stopping power. He projects as an outside/slot hybrid whose coverage instincts and movement skills carry immediate value, but long-term ceiling hinges on adding functional strength to withstand NFL physicality.
Bell (6’/192) originally committed to Wisconsin, where he redshirted in his first year and turned a starting role into 440 receiving yards plus 260 rushing yards in the following season. The Badgers scaled his role back in 2023, which limited him to a measly 296 yards. Without much to do in Wisconsin, Bell transferred to UConn. Now back in a full-time role, he immediately popped for a team-high 850 yards. Several schools made Bell offers in the transfer portal. UConn head coach Jim Mora confirmed that Bell even had a $500K offer from Michigan on the table. UConn ultimately retained its top wideout and was rewarded with a dominant season. Bell posted a 101-1,278-13 receiving line, setting the school record for catches and receiving touchdowns in a single season. He operated at all depths of the field throughout his five years in college, but his skills were maximized when the Huskies peppered him with underneath targets. Bell averaged 8.2 YAC per catch and moved the chains 50 times in 2025. Only three wideouts created more first downs last year. The step up in competition from UConn to the NFL could be tough, but Bell has the makings of a dynamic WR2 at the next level.
Elarms-Orr (6’2/234) was a volume-driven production engine for TCU, piling up 130 tackles with a strong 68.2 percent run-stop share while adding 10 havoc plays, 8 TFLs and 4 sacks as an every-down outside linebacker. His 91.5 percent tackle rate underscores reliable finishing despite aggressive angles, though his pursuit style can create volatility when forced to redirect late. Elarms-Orr also flashed legitimate blitz value, generating 21 pressures on 123 rushes (17.1 percent pressure rate) with a 20.0 percent third-down pressure rate, highlighting his timing and burst as a rusher. He wins with sideline-to-sideline range and closing speed, triggering quickly downhill and using fluid change-of-direction ability to track ball carriers in space. Athletically, Elarms-Orr checks the boxes with a 9.33 RAS, including elite speed (4.47s forty, 98th%) and explosion (40" vertical, 98th-percentile), though his agility testing (4.41 shuttle, 7.10 three-cone) lands closer to average. His biggest hurdle remains processing, as inconsistent key recognition and overaggressive pursuit angles can lead to missed fits and coverage lapses. Elarms-Orr projects as a sub-package WILL linebacker and core special teamer early, with upside to develop into a starting weakside option if his instincts and play recognition catch up to his high-end athletic traits.
He will join a San Francisco offensive line graded by Pro Football Focus as last season’s 18th best pass-blocking offensive line. Willis (6’5/303) is a quick-trigger, zone-scheme left tackle whose tape shows a finisher’s mentality and easy movement skills in space. In pass pro, Willis allowed 4 sacks with an elevated 4.2% pressure rate on 312 pass-blocking snaps. In the run game, he accelerates into contact with pop, works up to second-level landmarks with urgency, particularly on backside and climb concepts. Athletically, Willis checked in with a 5.98 RAS, showing good straight-line speed but lacking the mass, length and anchor profile typical of NFL tackles. He also needs to continue fortifying his frame to better absorb bull rushers and maintain balance through contact.
An SEC All-Freshman Team honoree, Lew is a technically sound, high-IQ interior lineman whose consistency and processing ability give him a strong floor at the next level. He posted a 71.9 PFF grade in 2025 after a career-best 79.9 mark in 2024, allowing just 2 sacks and 4 total pressures across 244 pass-blocking snaps with a 98.7 pass-blocking efficiency, continuing a three-year run of steady pass protection. Across his career, Lew surrendered only 3 sacks and 19 total pressures on 914 pass-blocking snaps, showcasing reliable technique, strong hand usage and the ability to control reps early with quick, independent strikes. Lew wins with strong hands, core strength and a wrestling background that shows up in his leverage and ability to anchor, while also demonstrating sharp awareness to identify fronts and handle twists, blitzes and second-level threats. He can struggle to generate consistent leg drive against nose tackles and avoid over-setting in pass protection, especially after returning from a 2025 ACL injury that limited his snap count. With advanced processing, clean pass-protection production and positional versatility, Lew projects as a high-floor interior starter who fits best gap-heavy NFL scheme.
Moore was one of the most impressive edge rushers in the country during his time at UTSA in 2022-2023, and his final season with the Roadrunners saw him accumulate 14 sacks while winning Conference USA Defensive Player of the Year. He then transferred to Texas, and while he didn’t come close to that production, he was able to pick up 8.5 sacks in his 28 games with the Longhorns, with four passes broken up and 14.5 tackles for loss. Moore ( 6’1"/243) unfortunately gets the “tweener” label for the next level; too small to play with his hand down, not quite athletic enough to be a linebacker. Because of his productivity and the 4.51s 40-yard dash speed he showed in Indianapolis, he’ll get a chance to show he can be a versatile defender at the highest level, and it wouldn’t be a shock if he out performed his prospectus.
Smith (6'2/202) entered a true starting role for the Wildcats in 2024, notching six PBUs and three interceptions before earning Third-Team All-Big 12 honors in 2025. Arguably one of the top ballhawking safeties in his class, Smith could find a reserve role on an NFL roster from the jump in addition to the potential to contribute to special teams. His vision and anticipation helped overcome glaring discrepancies at the collegiate level, something that was reinforced by his decision to skip the 40-yard dash at the Combine this year. Average top-end speed and poor open-field abilities keep Smith from being a true late-round gem, particularly in today’s league in which safeties are relied on so heavily in gap coverage against the run. Even so, Smith should stick on an NFL roster come September.
Wright (6’5/331) is a thickly built, power-driven interior lineman with over 2,000 career snaps and a play style rooted in physicality and finishing ability. Wright brings a broad frame with 33 1/8” arms, heavy 10” hands and a stout base, consistently generating movement at the point of attack while playing with violent intent in the run game. He’s at his best in downhill gap concepts, where his upper-body strength and competitive demeanor allow him to displace defenders and control reps once he’s latched. Wright’s 2025 production showed the limitations in his profile, as he allowed 22 pressures and 5 sacks on 449 pass-blocking snaps (96.8% efficiency) with a modest 67.1 PFF pass-block grade, highlighting issues against quicker interior rushers. His limited lateral mobility and lack of high-end athleticism show up when he’s forced to mirror or operate in space, where his effectiveness drops off significantly. With guard-only experience and a clear power-scheme fit, Wright projects as a stout interior mauler whose path to a starting role hinges on masking his movement limitations and maximizing his strength at the point of attack.
Hibner (6’4/251) is a sixth-year senior who began his career as a reserve tight end and special teamer with Michigan. He transferred to SMU prior to the 2024 season and became a starter, tallying 55 receptions for 804 yards and eight touchdowns across two seasons with the Mustangs. Displaying straight-line speed with a 4.57 40-yard dash at the combine, Hibner has the ability to be a solid downfield target. He split time between the slot, wing, and inline roles in college, showing versatility as a receiver. Hibner isn’t imposing as a blocker and has limited college production, but his extensive special teams experience will help in giving him a chance to stick on an NFL roster. In Baltimore he will join Mark Andrews and Durham Smythe in the tight end room. The Ravens had traditionally been among the league leaders in multiple tight end set usage.
Daniels played safety at Oklahoma State from 2022-2024 before transferring to Oklahoma and switching to linebacker. He ran a 4.79-second 40, clocked a 4.37-second short-shuttle drill and a 29.5” vertical jump at Oklahoma’s Pro Day. In his first college season, he was a Freshman All-American, second-team All-Big 12 and was named the Big 12 Defensive Freshman of the Year. In his final season as a safety, Daniels totaled 64 tackles, 10.5 TFLs, 5.5 sacks and seven passes defended. As a linebacker in 2025, he totaled 53 tackles, nine TFLs and three passes defended. He should have little issue contributing on special teams right away, and could end up competing for a starting role.
Boettcher (6’1/233) is a high-volume tackling machine who posted 105 tackles with a strong 90.5 percent tackle rate and 75.0 percent run involvement, consistently living around the football. He added 11 havoc plays with 4 TFLs and flashed situational pressure ability with 8 pressures on 51 rushes (15.7 percent pressure rate), highlighting his downhill trigger. Boettcher’s 7.14 RAS reflects solid, well-rounded athleticism (4.69s forty, 34.5” vertical) without standout traits, but his instincts and processing speed drive his production. He shows playmaker flashes in coverage with 1 interception and 4 PBUs, though his tendency to overrun fits and struggle disengaging from blocks creates inconsistency. Boettcher projects as a “see ball, get ball” WILL linebacker whose tackling efficiency and motor give him early special teams value with developmental starter upside. Boettcher was also selected in the 2024 MLB Draft by the Astros, but chose to remain in school for 2025. The 2026 NFL Draft’s ESPN broadcast tells us that the Astros will continue holding his baseball contract rights for now.
The brother of former No. 2 overall pick Trey Lance, Bryce (6’3"/204) followed in his sibling’s footsteps to North Dakota State, where he spent three years as either a redshirt or a special teamer. Lance finally got his chance to start in 2024 and made the most of the opportunity by racking up 17 receiving touchdowns, a mark that unsurprisingly led all D1 receivers. Lance also added one touchdown on the ground. Though he “only” scored eight times in 2025, Lance did so while averaging 21.2 yards per catch and 3.58 yards per route run. Both of those marks ranked top-10 among all D1 wideouts (min. 50 targets). Lance is a lengthy deep-ball specialist from North Dakota State. That, of course, was always going to earn him the Christian Watson comparison. He solidified the connection at the NFL Combine with a 4.34 40-yard dash, beating Watson by two thousandths of a second. Lance also posted 98th-percentile burst measurables and a solid short-shuttle mark of 4.15 seconds. North Dakota State’s run-first offense doesn’t ask its wideouts to run every route at an elite level, meaning Lance will need more reps to hone his skills as an underneath receiver. Even if he never develops that skill set, Lance has a bright future as a big-play Z receiver in the pros.
Overton (6‘3/274) is a power-based defender whose profile hinges more on growth potential and alignment flexibility than consistent production, totaling just 12.0 career tackles for loss across 49 games. He shows the ability to lock out, control blocks and anchor at the point, translating to a gap-sound run defender who can reduce inside or set a firm edge. His 2025 PFF data reflects modest pass-rush output (24 total pressures, 5 sacks, 17 hurries on 256 pass-rush snaps), reinforcing concerns about his lack of a defined rush plan and limited finishing ability. Overton’s athletic profile (2.47 RAS) exposes below-average explosion and agility, with a 4.75 shuttle (15th percentile) and 7.61 three-cone (27th percentile) underscoring stiffness that limits his ability to corner and consistently win the edge. He flashes heavy hands and bull-rush pop, but inconsistent get-off and delayed counters allow tackles to sit on his initial move, stalling his path to the quarterback. In the run game, he leverages strength and length to absorb double teams and maintain gap integrity, though he can be slow to disengage and finish plays. Overton projects as an early-down rotational defensive lineman with inside-outside flexibility, offering a high-floor run defender profile while needing significant refinement in pass-rush sequencing to carve out a larger NFL role.
The Bills received the No. 102 pick and a seventh-round pick as the Raiders moved up one spot to take McCoy. Expected to be a day one pick, McCoy slid in the draft amidst concerns over his ACL injury and subsequent reports indicating he might need an additional surgery to address the issue. JMcCoy (6’0/193) sustained a torn ACL in January 2025 which kept him out of action this year, but he turned in a polished and well-rounded 2024 campaign, earning an 89.6 PFF coverage grade that underscored his ability to stay connected, squeeze throwing windows, and finish at the catch point. Opposing quarterbacks targeted him 62 times, completing just 31 passes (50.0 percent) for 386 yards, as McCoy complemented ball skills with disruption, logging 4 interceptions and 6 PBUs. His tackling efficiency adds an additional dimension, as he missed only 4 attempts (7.0 percent) while generating 11 stops, contributing to a solid 79.0 PFF tackling grade. Overall, McCoy’s 2024 profile reads like a high-IQ, ball-productive cover corner with sticky man traits and efficient tackling. However, lingering concerns about the condition of his surgically repaired knee cloud his overall draft projection.
Bowry (6’5/314) is a smooth-moving, high-character lineman with starting experience at multiple positions and a standout 9.40 RAS, showcasing elite explosiveness and above-average speed for the position. Bowry plays with patience and composure in pass protection, relying on a natural kick slide and active hands to stay square, allowing just 2 sacks across 1,399 career snaps. His 2025 season was solid if unspectacular, posting a 66.4 PFF pass-block grade with 14 pressures allowed on 320 pass-blocking snaps, backed by a 97.7 pass-block efficiency. Bowry’s movement skills and balance flash on tape, particularly when redirecting or operating in space, though his lack of ideal mass and anchor strength show up against power rushers. He struggled at the Senior Bowl and dealt with nagging injuries in 2025, adding some uncertainty to his evaluation, while his sub-1,400 snap count leaves less developmental runway than some peers. With athletic upside, clean pass sets and positional flexibility, Bowry profiles as a guard/tackle hybrid with starter potential in a movement-based scheme.
The Jets add another defensive player after being one of the worst defenses in the NFL last year under head coach Aaron Glenn. Jackson Jr. (6’5/315) is a massive, long-levered interior presence whose 93.5% run-defense tackle share and 93.9% tackle efficiency underscore his ability to consistently be around the football in the trenches. He logged 46 tackles with 4 TFL, 1 sack and 6 run stops in 2025, operating more as a space-eating anchor than a disruptive penetrator (4 havoc plays). Jackson flashes the ability to two-gap with his length, using his 7-foot-plus wingspan to lock out blockers and clog rushing lanes. However, his high pad level, narrow base and inconsistent hand timing lead to reps where he’s uprooted or washed out, limiting his down-to-down consistency despite rare physical tools.
Proctor saw his stock improve as much as any interior lineman in the class with his impressive showing at the NFL combine. He forged a 4.79s 40-yard dash, showed off a 33-inch vertical jump, and posted an excellent 4.71s 20-yard shuttle; all from a 6-foot-1, 291-pound frame. That’s not to say that Proctor wasn’t on the map for his previous production, as he was the Southland Conference Player of the Year while registering nine sacks and 13 tackles for loss while also batting down a pair of passes. Obviously, the biggest question is how that translates, as Southeastern Louisiana isn’t exactly a known football powerhouse. But it’s easy to understand why he’s drafted with that kind of production and those kind of athletic traits. He’s someone to keep an eye on this summer fighting for a role on the Cardinals’ defensive line.
What you see is what you get with Thompson. If you guessed that the 5’9/164 receiver with 4.26 wheels was a one-trick deep threat, you’d be right. Thompson spent three years at Texas and Oklahoma as a backup before finding a starting role at Mississippi State for his senior season. He went for 1,054 yards and six scores on 57 grabs. Thompson also picked up a rushing touchdown on one of his four carries. He finished fifth among Power Four wideouts in receiving yards on targets 20 or more yards downfield (478). That is about the extent of Thompson’s game. He saw just three screens in 2025 and has one career punt return. Both size and versatility limitations have the deck stacked against Thompson in the pros. The lack of designed touches is also a notable concern. Thompson will likely top out as a Travis Benjamin or J.J. Nelson type in the pros.
Nwaiwu (6’4"/319) is a five-position interior chess piece with over 3,300 career snaps and a rare developmental arc from North Texas walk-on to multi-year Power Four starter. Nwaiwu delivered one of the cleanest pass-protection seasons in the class in 2025, posting a 91.6 pass blocking grade with just two pressures and zero sacks allowed across 505 pass-blocking snaps, backed by a superb 99.8 percent efficiency rating. His game is built on a stout anchor and disciplined eyes, consistently sitting down versus power while scanning for late threats, with added value from legitimate center/guard flexibility after repping multiple spots on the interior throughout his career. Nwaiwu checks in as a solid but unspectacular athlete (6.06 RAS/55th percentile 5.32s 40-yard dash), with functional short-area quickness but a slow-twitch profile that shows up when asked to redirect or operate in space. His 59.4 run-blocking grade reflects limited displacement and average pop at the point of attack, with inconsistent ability to generate movement despite good hand placement. While he cleaned up his pass protection in 2025 after allowing four sacks in 2024, he can still overextend and lose balance when his timing is off. Nwaiwu projects as an interior swing lineman with starting upside in a pass-first scheme, where his elite pass protection, positional versatility and high-floor football character can earn him early depth reps and eventual lineup consideration.
