Brazzell (6’4/198) was initially recruited to Tulane, where he broke out with 711 yards and five scores as a sophomore. That season put him on Tennessee’s radar via the portal. After transferring, Brazzell played a rotational role for a year before stepping up as the Vols’ top option. As a senior, he went for 1,017 yards and nine scores — both of which led the team — on 65 grabs. Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel pinned Brazzell to the left hash and let him beat opposing corners with his size and 4.37 40-yard dash speed. Brazzell scored six of his touchdowns on throws that traveled 20 or more yards downfield, tying him for the third-most in the country. As we’ve come to expect from Tennessee wideouts, Brazzell wasn’t asked to run a diverse route tree in college. That and his slender build will likely pigeonhole him into stretch Z receiver duties at the next level. Even if that’s his ceiling in the pros, Brazzell could become a premier big-play threat early in his career.
Barber (6’6/318) is an experienced tackle with over 2,700 career snaps whose impressive athletic profile (9.81 RAS) and basketball background show up in his ability to operate in space and finish through the whistle. Barber logged 714 snaps at left tackle this year, pairing a dominant 90.0 run-blocking grade with strong efficiency metrics, including just a 1.6 percent run blown block rate while consistently generating movement at the point of attack. His grip strength and play temperament allow him to latch, sustain and displace defenders, making him a natural fit for gap and outside-zone concepts that require second-level mobility. In pass protection, Barber posted a more modest 66.7 pass block grade with a 3.5 percent pressure rate and three sacks allowed, reflecting inconsistencies against speed and counters, particularly versus high-end edge threats. His foot movement can be stressed on the edge, and matchups against quality rushers like Cashius Howell exposed issues with recovery timing and edge-setting angles. Barber brings durability and alignment flexibility with experience at both tackle spots, though his 29 career penalties point to technique lapses and occasional overaggression.
Coming off a five-year college career where he caught just 65 passes in 55 games, 23-year-old Kacmarek (6’6/261) is a high-end run-blocking prospect. That might sound like damning with faint praise, but it’s a skill-set that never goes out of style, and has been particularly back in vogue the past few seasons. Despite his Ohio State pedigree, there is nothing in Kacmarek’s college profile that suggests he will become a multi-dimensional, pass-catching tight end. That means he is a seam stretcher who could make a plus “real life” impact while remaining off the radar in fantasy.
Pregnon (6’5/318) emerged as one of the most reliable interior blockers in the Big Ten during Oregon’s 2025 campaign, logging 910 snaps while allowing pressure on only 0.8 percent of his pass-blocking reps and being charged with just one sack over his last three seasons. That level of operational cleanliness translated directly to elite grading, as PFF tagged him with an 88.2 pass-blocking grade and a 99.8 percent pressure-free rate, placing him squarely in the conference’s top tier for interior protection efficiency. Pregnon paired his pass protection output with high-floor run support, earning an 85.8 run-blocking grade while surrendering a minuscule 1.1 percent run-blown-block rate, reinforcing his projection as a scheme-versatile guard capable of winning in both gap and zone concepts. His total blown-block rate of just 1.0 percent across all assignments underscores how well he held up over volume, particularly compared to Oregon’s younger rotational linemen who experienced far more variance. With his efficiency, durability, and lack of self-inflicted errors (just two penalties committed across 1,792 snaps last two years), Pregnon positioned himself as one of the Ducks’ most stabilizing offensive contributors and a plug-and-play guard at the NFL level.
Thomas ran the third-fastest 40 (4.28 seconds) at the NFL Scouting Combine. He made the Freshman All-American team as a punt returner at Mississippi State in 2022. After transferring to LSU in 2024, he bagged third-team All-SEC honors as a kick returner. Over the course of his college career, he found the end zone as a receiver, rusher, punt returner and kick returner. He posted career highs in receptions (41) and receiving touchdowns (four) last year, while totaling 488 receiving yards. Thomas (5’10/190) profiles as an impactful special teams player with the Bears as a rookie. He may have to wait until 2027 or later to earn much of a role as a wideout.
Black (5’9”/208) spent his six-year college career with head coach Curt Cignetti, joining him at James Madison in 2020, and then transferring to Indiana in 2024 when the Hoosiers hired Cignetti to be their coach. During Indiana’s 2025 national championship run, Black split duties with Roman Hemby, but still managed to rush for 1,040 yards and 10 touchdowns on 186 carries. Black saw 158 of his carries come on first or second down, per TruMedia, and converted four of his 20 carries inside the opponents’ five-yard line into scores. He’s a physical back who doesn’t shy away from contact and pushes to pick up every yard before the play is dead. He caught a career-high 25 passes during his 2023 season at James Madison, but managed just nine receptions on 12 targets in his two seasons at Indiana. In San Francisco Black will struggle to carve out any sort of consistent role unless the Niners struggle with backfield injuries.
As a four-year starter at left tackle in the SEC, Zuhn (6’6/312) should, in theory, have more hype heading into the draft. However, draftniks project him to move to the interior in the pros, and he has a grand total of one start at a position other than left tackle. That came at center late in the 2025 season, and it saw him earn his lowest Pro Football Focus pass-blocking grade of the year by far. Even including the lone start at center, Zuhn earned PFF’s highest pass-pro grade among all tackles in 2025. Zuhn has a sturdy base and put up 33 bench press reps at the NFL Combine, but he’s not going to maul defenders in the run game, regardless of what position he settles in at. The Raiders announced him as a center after selecting him in the third round. Zuhn might need a year on the bench to learn the ins and outs of blocking on the interior.
Barham (6’3/240) is an explosive hybrid front-seven defender who generated 11 havoc plays, eight tackles for loss and four sacks while splitting time between off-ball and edge alignments. His pass-rush efficiency pops with 23 pressures on just 146 rushes with a strong 17.4 percent third-down pressure rate that reflects situational impact. Barham’s 2.88 time-to-first-pressure underscores his burst and twitch, traits further supported by elite testing numbers including a 4.64 forty and 10’03” broad jump (both 93rd percentile marks) at 240 pounds for an 8.83 RAS. Against the run, he posted a solid 88.2 percent tackle rate with seven run stops, though his lighter frame points to more of a pursuit-based role than a true edge setter. His tweener profile shows up in inconsistent block recognition and play control, as he can overrun fits and struggle to anchor versus size. Barham projects as a sub-package weapon where his plus athletic profile and pressure efficiency can be leveraged to maximum effect.
Trost (6’5/311) is a seventh-year senior with nearly 2,900 career snaps and 40-plus starts across four programs under his belt, bringing a seasoned profile. Trost made a massive leap in 2025, posting an elite 92.0 overall grade with a 91.4 run-block grade and 85.4 pass-block grade, allowing just seven pressures and one sack on 432 pass-blocking snaps against SEC competition. He wins with a broad, well-proportioned frame, heavy hands and improved punch timing, consistently transitioning from strike to grip to control rushers and anchor with firm balance. Limitations show up early in the rep, where his pass set can be a bit static and his initial quickness can leave him susceptible to counters and swipes. With his late-career surge, positional versatility and pro-ready strength, Trost profiles as a developmental prospect with starter upside, though it could eventually be at guard.
Bell (6’2/222) spent all four years of his college experience at Louisville, slowly improving as a player while also expanding his role. He took over as an every-week starter in 2024 and went for 737 yards with four scores. Bell then put it all together in his senior season with a 72-917-6 receiving line. He caught fire a month into the season, ripping off games of 135, 170, and 136 yards when Louisville began its conference schedule. The third of those games featured two touchdowns against Miami’s star-studded defense. Bell unfortunately faded down the stretch before suffering a torn ACL just before the end of the season. He’s a physical, outside receiver who couldn’t be matched by press coverage in college. The biggest concern for Bell is the torn ACL. He doesn’t pop as an athlete on tape and now he is coming off a catastrophic knee injury. Bell is teeming with upside, but it could take several years for him to get enough reps to reach that ceiling, even if he is reportedly ahead of schedule in his recovery.
Klein began playing football in Germany before moving to the United States in high school. Because he was late to football, his numbers at Michigan aren’t much to write home about. Over Klein’s last two seasons, he caught 37 passes for 351 yards and one touchdown. He stands 6’6/248 and ran a 4.61-second 40 at the NFL Scouting Combine. Add in strong burst numbers and he left Indy with a 9.05 RAS. Klein is also a strong blocker despite his lack of reps. His receiving game needs work, but the athletic profile gives him a considerable ceiling. He will get to learn behind Dalton Schultz for a year before potentially taking over in 2027, when Schultz becomes a free agent.
Hill will join a rebuilding Tennessee defense now headed by head coach Robert Saleh. Hill Jr. (6’2/238) is a high-impact second-level defender who posted 63 tackles with 11 havoc plays, 5 TFL and 4.0 sacks across 10 games while delivering an elite 95.5% tackle rate. He was weaponized as a blitzer, generating 15 pressures on just 81 rushes (18.5% pressure rate) with 3 sacks created and a 2.68 time-to-first-pressure, flashing sudden closing burst and disruptive timing. Hill added 10 run stops with a 68.3% run tackle share, showcasing his ability to trigger downhill, slip blocks and finish in space. In coverage, he allowed just 82 yards on 16 targets with 0 TDs and a 14.2 passer rating allowed, pairing range with efficient route recognition. He projects as a three-down MIKE/WILL hybrid with game-wrecking versatility, though continued development in stack-and-shed consistency and play strength versus NFL size will determine whether he reaches his All-Pro ceiling or settles into a high-end starter tier.
Klare (6’4/246) was a four-star recruit for Purdue and played a reserve role as a freshman. He only appeared in five games as a sophomore before an ankle injury ended his season. Klare finally broke out with a 51/685/4 receiving line in his third outing. As is often the case in the current college football landscape, Klare’s breakout made him a hot name in the transfer portal and the Buckeyes picked up the phone. Klare’s numbers tanked at Ohio State, though playing alongside at least two potential NFL stars in Carnell Tate and Jeremiah Smith is a reasonable alibi. He went for 448 yards and just two touchdowns. Despite the counting stats taking a hit, Klare likely improved his draft stock by bulking up for a more traditional tight end role. He increased his rate of inline routes and improved as a run-blocker. After rounding out his skill set at Ohio State, Klare looks ready to contribute on an NFL field out of the gates.
The Bills gave up a third and a sixth to move up for the pick. Igbinosun (6’2/189) is a long, press-oriented boundary defender with 32-inch arms, built to disrupt timing and squeeze receivers along the sideline. Across 1,532 career coverage snaps, he allowed 115 receptions on 217 targets for 1,187 yards, trimming that efficiency to a 47.8 completion percentage and 9.4 yards per catch in 2025. His physicality shows up at the line and catch point, but also in the box where he totaled 158 tackles with 44 run stops over four seasons. Igbinosun’s athletic profile is a clear strength, showing explosion (42-inch vertical and plus long-speed (4.45s forty) that supports his press-man projection. However, 30 career penalties and inconsistent footwork in transitions highlight his grabby tendencies and stiffness against route breaks, making him a scheme-dependent second corner whose ceiling hinges on improved discipline.
Slaughter (6’4/303) enters the 2026 cycle as one of the most decorated interior linemen in the class. He was a back-to-back All-American at UF who posted elite, well-balanced grading profiles, including an 84.1 overall PFF grade in 2025 with 80.2 run-blocking and 84.1 pass-blocking marks. Across 2,145 career pass-blocking snaps, Slaughter surrendered just four sacks, three hits, and 15 hurries, good for a sterling 98.8 pass-blocking efficiency that underscores his ability to control the pocket with timing, leverage, and processing. He wins with veteran savvy more than raw power, displaying excellent snap-to-set footwork, quick recognition versus simulated pressures, and the ability to stay connected through blocks despite lacking overwhelming mass. Slaughter’s 9.97 RAS highlights a high-end athletic profile for the position, pairing explosive lower-body traits (9.56 vertical, 9.14 broad = 91st percentile) with good linear speed (5.10 forty, 85th percentile) that translate to effective pull-and-climb ability in zone-heavy schemes. In the run game, he consistently walls off interior lanes and keeps defenders occupied with active feet and body positioning, though he can struggle to re-anchor against longer, more powerful nose tackles who win first contact. While his average play strength and occasional balance lapses in space cap his ceiling, Slaughter projects as a center whose intelligence, durability, and technical consistency give him a high floor early in his NFL career.
Clark (6’1/188) is a rangy, opportunistic free safety whose ball production keeps dragging your eyes back to the tape, posting 55 tackles, 13 havoc plays, 4 interceptions and seven PBUs in 11 games for TCU. He allowed 17 catches on 30 targets for 202 yards and three touchdowns, but his 23.3 percent forced incompletion rate and four interceptions illustrate the feast-or-famine profile of a defensive back who trusts his instincts and attacks windows aggressively. Clark’s best work comes playing top-down from depth, where he can read the quarterback, overlap routes and flash receiver-like hands at the catch point, even if his aggression can leave him vulnerable to play-action manipulation and double moves. In the middle of his profile sits an 8.89 RAS with 4.41s speed (97th-percentile) and 88th-percentile explosion numbers, giving him enough range to survive deep duties despite a lean frame that can show up in tackle strength and durability concerns. The production is gaudy, 15 interceptions over his last four seasons in addition to plus impact in the run game as a wrap-and-roll finisher when he arrives on time. Clark projects as a ball-hawking split-safety defender and sub-package playmaker whose instincts and takeaway ability can outweigh some volatility, especially for teams willing to live with the occasional gambling rep.
With the Rams taking Ty Simpson early in the first round for some reason, the Cardinals add Beck to their paltry QB room alongside Jacoby Brissett and Gardner Minshew. Beck (6’4”/233) and his Miami Hurricanes were the runners-up in this year’s national championship game. A sixth-year prospect who started his career as a backup at Georgia, Beck wound up starting two seasons (2023 and 2024) for the Bulldogs before transferring to Miami for his final season. Beck has the prototypical size of a pocket passer, but was a short-yardage merchant during his final season at Miami, averaging a 4.8 average depth of target on his completed passes with 64.8 percent of his throws traveling fewer than 10 air yards. There are also concerns about his throwing arm after he underwent UCL surgery in 2024. Beck’s conservative style limits bad plays, and he’s displayed a good knack for avoiding sacks when pressured. More of a game manager than a player who will air it out to win you games, Beck could thrive in the right system and one day get a chance to start. Brissett would be far better for Trey McBride and Marvin Harrison Jr. for fantasy purposes.
Onyedim (6’3/292) is a steady, assignment-sound interior defender whose profile is defined by balance rather than standout traits, pairing great explosion testing (32” vertical, 9’3” broad) with middling agility numbers and a brisk 1.69s 10-yard split (92nd percentile), which combined for a solid 8.31 RAS. He consistently excelled against the run, flashing disruptive ability in spurts while maintaining reliable gap integrity and run fits within Texas A&M’s front. He wins with hand usage and play strength, leveraging his frame to stack, peek and shed while showing enough first-step quickness to threaten interior shoulders and create occasional backfield penetration. While he doesn’t possess a true calling-card trait, Onyedim’s game is notably free of glaring weaknesses, making him a high-floor rotational piece who rarely busts assignments or loses contain. His pass-rush production lacks consistency due to average bend and change-of-direction ability, and he can stall out once initial momentum is absorbed by NFL-caliber linemen. Onyedim projects as a reliable rotational defensive tackle with spot-start upside, capable of providing early-down stability and complementary interior pressure in a deep NFL front.
Crawford (6’4/253) is a high-motor edge who generated 37 pressures on 217 pass-rush snaps while adding five sacks in a productive 2025 campaign. He pairs that pass-rush juice with 11 havoc plays, 8.5 tackles for loss and 45 total tackles while flashing a well-rounded disruption profile. Crawford’s blazing 2.37 time-to-first-pressure underscores his explosive get-off, allowing him to consistently stress tackles vertically and force early pocket movement. He wins with burst, effort and developing hand usage, flashing the ability to accelerate through contact and close quickly when he sees a path to the quarterback. However, his lack of ideal length and lower-body power shows up against bigger tackles, where he can get stalled at the top of his rush and struggle to disengage. He projects as a scheme-versatile rotational edge with sub-package upside early, offering immediate pass-rush value while continuing to refine his counters and anchor for a potential starting trajectory.
Bell is a towering outlier at 6’9/346 with 36 3/8” arms whose sheer mass and length create immediate problems for edge defenders, particularly when he locks out with his heavy hands. Bell logged a staggering 1,034 snaps in 2025 and delivered a major leap with a 83.5 pass block grade, surrendering just 15 pressures and zero sacks on 534 pass-blocking snaps, elite efficiency driven by his wingspan and upper-body power. He shed nearly 50 pounds since JUCO and rapidly improved his pass protection profile year-over-year, while showing the durability to anchor Miami’s blindside for a full season. However, Bell’s evaluation is shaped by leverage and movement concerns, as his height leads to naturally high pad level and inconsistent strike timing that can erode his base. His testing profile (5.36 40 = 39th percentile) reflects below-average foot speed and lateral agility, which shows up when mirroring speed rushers or handling counters in space. Bell projects as a developmental tackle with high-end pass protection upside in gap/power schemes, but one whose ceiling will ultimately hinge on improving leverage discipline and foot speed to handle NFL edge speed.
A true tight end’s tight end, Roush (6’6/267), does a little bit of everything without one elite trait. He peaked at 49 catches for 545 yards and two scores as a senior. Those two scores make up half of his collegiate touchdowns. The low scoring total could, in part, be explained by Roush’s struggles on contested targets, of which he secured just 47 percent. Roush isn’t a mauling blocker, but he handled his business in the trenches at Stanford and his massive frame will make the NFL transition a bit easier. His elite athletic measurable — highlighted by a 4.7 40 — will also make the leap to pro completion more manageable. Roush simply needs to play to his size more as a blocker and at the catch point. He will begin his career behind Cole Kmet and Coleston Loveland. Roush won’t be a threat to Loveland, but he could take on Kmet’s role as a blocker and TE2 in Chicago after 2026.
One of the older prospects in the 2025 draft pool, (4/13/2001) the well traveled Height (6’3/240) played for three different schools (Auburn, USC, Georgia Tech) before (6’3/240) delivering a breakout campaign in 2025. Across 598 snaps, he posted 48 tackles, 16 havoc plays, 12.5 TFL, 10 sacks, and 2 forced fumbles, acting as Tech’s second major heat source opposite All-American Edge David Bailey. His pass-rush metrics were standout: on 294 rushes, Height generated 53 pressures for an 18% pressure rate, with 9 sacks created, a 2.50 sec time-to-first-pressure, and a high-leverage 20.0% third-down pressure rate. PFF validated the impact, issuing an elite 92.6 overall grade bolstered by a blue-chip 92.5 pass-rush grade and 93.1 coverage grade, signaling a modern outside linebacker who can both pressure and disrupt offensive game plans.
Williams, 21, stands 6’/187. He was a four-year starter at Clemson, primarily lining up in the slot, as a go-to receiver running quick-hitting routes. He also contributes as a seam stretcher. Williams earned first- and third-team All-ACC honors, respectively, over the last two seasons. He missed two games in 2025 due to a hamstring injury and posted a 55/604/4 receiving line. Williams also threw one touchdown pass and scored once as a rusher in each of the past two seasons. He could warrant FLEX consideration in PPR formats if he earns his team’s starting slot receiver role, but gaining access to two-wide receiver sets is critical for reliable fantasy productivity.
Davis (6’4/194) offers rare boundary dimensions with 33-plus inch arms and an 8.75 RAS, pairing long-strider speed (4.41s forty) with disruptive length. Across 218 coverage snaps, he allowed just 13 receptions on 29 targets (44 percent) for 128 yards with zero touchdowns, adding two INTs and four passes broken up while holding quarterbacks to a 47.2 rating. His 17.2 percent forced incompletion rate and 0.59 yards per coverage snap underscore his ability to shrink throwing windows and contest at the catch point. Davis added 16 tackles with a strong 94.1 percent tackle rate and seven havoc plays, flashing functional physicality despite inconsistent body control. He thrives in press and zone looks where his wingspan reroutes releases and caps verticals, but average transition quickness and grabby tendencies show up against multi-break route runners. Davis projects as a traits-driven boundary corner with starting upside in press-heavy schemes if his footwork and route-matching consistency continue to develop.
