1. CB/WR Travis Hunter, Colorado (up 1 spot)

"Hunter is a lean, athletic playmaker who starred on both sides of the ball for the Buffaloes, winning the Heisman Trophy in 2024. He has a narrow frame and is a very smooth-flowing athlete. On offense, he is creative in his release to escape press as a receiver. He is constantly changing gears to keep cornerbacks off balance and he never wastes steps at the top of his route. He drops his weight and explodes out of the break. He has elite body control and hands. He can pluck balls well outside his frame with grace and ease. After the catch, he is silky smooth and elusive. He doesn't have elite top speed, but he's fast enough to not get caught. On defense, he was much improved in 2024. He didn't take as many unnecessary risks at cornerback, relying more on discipline and technique to stay in position. He can locate the ball and picked it off seven times over the past two seasons. My only concern is the question of how long he will be able to physically hold up if he continues to play on both sides of the ball full-time at the professional level. I'd prefer he prioritize offense and moonlight on defense."

2. EDGE Abdul Carter, Penn State (down 1)

"Carter is an electric edge rusher. He has average height and bulk, but he has an ELITE burst and his ability to flatten at the top of his rush is special. He gets a lot of early wins because of that speed, and he also has a nifty swipe/rip move. If tackles overset, he senses it early and crosses their face for immediate pressures/sacks. He also has a natural ability to retrace underneath when quarterbacks climb the pocket to avoid him. He can press out and control tight ends at the point of attack. He's a blur when chasing plays down on the back side. Overall, Carter can take over and completely wreck an offensive game plan. He demands attention on every snap and that is going to free up everyone else around him."

3. RB Ashton Jeanty, Boise State

"Jeanty is a fun player to study. He is a short, compact runner with incredible strength, balance and burst. He displays outstanding vision, tempo and feel. On inside runs, the Boise State product has a unique ability to absorb and bounce off tacklers. He has quick feet and never stops driving on contact, leading to some miraculous escapes and home runs. He is rarely -- if ever -- tackled when presented with one-on-one situations at the second level, exhibiting the capacity to run through defenders, make them miss or just burst by them. He isn't polished as a route runner, but he has reliable hands and can create in space after the catch. He can identify, absorb and wall off in pass pro. He needs to improve his ball security, having fumbled nine times over the past two seasons. Overall, Jeanty might lack ideal size, but he's a mixture of Dalvin Cook and J.K. Dobbins as a runner."

4. DT Mason Graham, Michigan

"Graham is a powerful defensive tackle with outstanding leverage and instincts. He's one of the most consistent players in the draft class. Against the run, he has an impressive short-area burst to attack blockers. He excels in block destruction. He stacks, finds the ball, chucks blockers to the side and collects tackles. He has lateral range to make plays down the line, too. He is always in a leverage position and never gets uprooted. In the pass game, he has a violent club/rip move and a powerful bull rush. His effort is outstanding. Overall, it's easy to identify Graham as a former wrestler. He always has a full gas tank and he set the tone for the entire Michigan defense."

5. EDGE Jalon Walker, Georgia

"Walker is a compact, powerful defender with length and explosiveness. He played both on and off the ball in the Georgia defensive scheme, but he's at his best on the edge. As a pass rusher, he can win with pure speed, power and an explosive counter move. He's also a weapon when used to spy the quarterback. He can mirror the QB's movement before closing the space in a hurry. He dominated in the Bulldogs' first meeting against Texas during the 2024 season. He's a firm edge-setter against the run. When he's stacked off the ball, he's a touch late to key/diagnose, but he can attack and take on blocks or scrape over the top for tackles. He has outstanding change-of-direction quickness in space. Overall, Walker is a tone-setter on defense and UGA coaches rave about his makeup and leadership."

6. TE Tyler Warren, Penn State

"Warren is a massive tight end who carried the Penn State offense this past season. He lined up in-line, in the slot and as a Wildcat quarterback. His production is the result of his size, catch radius and tenacity. He doesn't generate a lot of separation as a route runner, but he walls off defenders when on the move. Defenders simply can't get through his body to make plays on the ball. He can track the ball over his shoulder and he can high-point the ball when needed. He isn't a nifty option-route type of player. After the catch, defenders bounce off him or go along for a ride as he drags them for extra yardage. As a Wildcat quarterback, he creates space with his power and leg drive. He's effective in the run game and looks to finish when possible. Overall, he isn't as dynamic as Rob Gronkowski was during his career, but Warren is a similar player in a lot of ways."

7. TE Colston Loveland, Michigan

"Loveland is a long, lean tight end with outstanding awareness, quickness and big-play ability. He has aligned in-line, as a wing and in the slot. He's urgent in his release. He has a tremendous feel for option routes and working in space. He can cleanly get in/out of breaks and he presents a big target to the quarterback. He attacks the ball in the air and is adept at finishing in crowds. After the catch, he has a smooth stride and possesses a nasty stiff-arm. He has some wiggle to make defenders miss, as well. His lack of bulk impacts his ability to stay connected as a run blocker, though. Overall, Loveland is equipped to make a lot of catches as a starting tight end in his rookie campaign."

8. QB Cam Ward, Miami

"Ward is a thick, compact quarterback with outstanding arm strength and playmaking ability. After spending two seasons apiece at Incarnate Word and Washington State, he put up monster numbers at the final stop on his college journey, becoming a Heisman Trophy finalist at Miami. He plays a very free-wheeling brand of football. He drifts in his drop, throws from a variety of arm angles and often falls away from the target upon release of the football. He can really power the ball into tight windows, but his aggressive nature can put points on both sides of the scoreboard. He has very quick hands in the RPO game and he can navigate around free rushers by dropping his arm angle. He took the free yards with his legs when voids presented themselves in Miami's spread attack. Overall, Ward will need to be reined in, but he's a very gifted thrower of the football. If he can learn to better manage the game, he has a very high ceiling."

9. OT Armand Membou, Missouri (up 3)

"Membou is a thick/square right tackle prospect with long arms. In pass pro, he explodes out of his stance and shoots his right hand to stab opponents before reworking both hands to control. He can bend and redirect smoothly. He does a good job of staying square throughout the down. He will give some ground versus power before settling down and stopping the charge. In the run game, he attacks the hip on down blocks, displacing defensive tackles. He has knock-back power to uproot defenders over his nose. He could more than hold his own at tackle in the NFL but has the tools to become an All-Pro guard. He reminds me of Alijah Vera-Tucker coming out of college."

10. CB Jahdae Barron, Texas (up 1)

"Barron is a talented Swiss Army Knife. He aligned outside, in the slot and in the box as a dime linebacker for the Longhorns. He made impact plays in every game I studied. He's a quicker-than-fast athlete with outstanding eyes and conviction. He's at his best when he can play off and see through receivers to the quarterback. He reads the QB's drop and anticipates to beat pass catchers to the ball. He doesn't waste steps and has outstanding hands. He lacks elite top speed, but he's always in position and he is excellent at locating/playing the football downfield. He has good timing and feel as a blitzer. He can adjust from pass to run defense to collect tackles. His batting average as a tackler in space is very high. Overall, Barron excels at taking the ball away and reminds me of Brian Branch when he was coming out of Alabama."

11. OT Will Campbell, LSU (down 1)

"Campbell has ideal height, bulk and athleticism for his position. In pass pro, he stays square, bends well and keeps his hands in tight. He will expose his chest at times (due to his lack of ideal length) but he's able to recover after giving up some initial ground. He can slide and redirect with ease. He flashes the upper-body strength to torque and control defenders. In the run game, he can wash defenders on down blocks and he stays attached to/through the whistle. Some teams will be more concerned than others with his lack of length, but I don't see it as a major issue. He is just scratching the surface of his potential and should start at tackle for a decade, provided he stays healthy."

12. LB Jihaad Campbell, Alabama (down 3)

"Campbell is a tall, rangy and explosive linebacker. He was recruited to Alabama as an edge rusher but initially moved to linebacker because of the Crimson Tide's depth on the edges (SEE: Will Anderson Jr. and Dallas Turner, among others). This past season, he played both off the ball and on the edge. As an off-ball linebacker, he doesn't possess elite instincts but offers excellent speed and physicality. He can range sideline to sideline and flashes the ability to thump off blockers and collect tackles on inside runs. He displays exciting tools in his pass-rush opportunities off the edge. He can burst/bend and finish. He also grew more comfortable in coverage throughout the 2024 season. He anticipates routes and positions himself to make plays on the ball. Overall, Campbell expands the playbook for defensive coordinators and his best football is ahead of him."

13. RB Omarion Hampton, North Carolina

"Hampton is a big, athletic back. As a runner, he likes to press the hole early before deciding to stay inside or bounce out wide. He has enough speed to capture the corner when he gets to the perimeter. He's a loose runner and has make-you-miss ability in space. He has an impressive blend of power and balance on contact. His vision is a little inconsistent, though. He will occasionally run up the back of blockers. In the pass game, he's effective on angle routes, screens and shovels. He has strong, reliable hands. In pass pro, he is quick to sort and attack blitzers with a sharp, six-inch punch. Overall, Hampton has the size and tools to be an effective starter right away."

14. WR Matthew Golden, Texas (up 2)

"Golden has average size, but he plays with tremendous polish, instincts and toughness. He spends a lot of time operating out of the slot. He can defeat press coverage with quickness or strength. He understands how to tempo routes and sets up defenders down the field. He can change gears when the ball goes up and he tracks it naturally. He does a nice job of staying grounded through the catch when working on crossers. He has the utmost confidence in his ball skills. After the catch, he is very strong/sturdy to pull through tackles and he can make defenders miss in space. I love his temperament on the field -- he plays with an edge. Overall, Golden doesn't have dynamic traits, but he's a natural football player and a quarterback's best friend. He's dependable."

15. S Nick Emmanwori, South Carolina

"Emmanwori is a massive safety prospect with ideal instincts and ball skills. He fits best as a strong safety, big nickel or sub linebacker. He can consistently undercut routes and take the ball away in those roles. He trusts his eyes and drives on the ball. He had multiple pick-sixes in the games I studied. He does have a little tightness that shows up in man coverage, but he has enough speed to recover. When he's aligned in the deep half, he's not as effective. He doesn't see/react as well at that depth. Against the run, he is aggressive to fill and he's a strong tackler on the front side. He will have some run-by misses when chasing from the back side. Overall, Emmanwori will be a difference-maker provided the team that drafts him deploys him close to the action."

16. CB Will Johnson, Michigan (down 2)

"Johnson is a big cornerback with easy/fluid movement skills and excellent instincts. He played outside and in the slot at Michigan. In off coverage, he's very smooth and relaxed. He doesn't panic, settles on routes and can find/play the ball. He had an impressive flat-footed read against USC that he turned into a pick-six. He has the size/length to press and match up with bigger wideouts. The two issues that showed up in his 2024 game tape were inconsistency as a support player against the run and questions about his deep speed. He wasn't ultra-aggressive to attack ball-carriers and he was run over multiple times. He can alleviate any concerns about his speed during athletic testing in the spring. Overall, Johnson isn't a perfect player, but I do love his blend of size and ball skills."

17. IOL Tyler Booker, Alabama (up 3)

"Booker has ideal size, awareness and consistency. In the pass game, he sets with a wide/firm base and easily absorbs power rushers. He keeps his hands tight and when he locks on, he wins. When he's uncovered, he looks for work and delivers some nasty shots to unsuspecting opponents. In the run game, he can move defenders lined up over his nose and he is excellent on combo blocks up to the second level. He takes great angles, and he gathers and walls off linebackers. Sources at Alabama compare his leadership qualities to those of former Tide star Will Anderson Jr. There are some concerns about Booker's athleticism based on his combine performance, but he's still a perfect fit for a gap-scheme team with a power running game."

18. WR Emeka Egbuka, Ohio State (down 1)

"Egbuka is a strong, physical receiver with the ability to play inside or outside. He's quick in his release, and he can fight his way through press coverage. He is more of a one-speed route runner, but he's very comfortable working in traffic. He attacks the ball in the air in the middle of the field. On vertical routes, he tracks the ball well and has a knack for utilizing late hands to prevent defenders from playing the pocket and poking the ball away. He has a great feel for working in zones and adjusting his route if the play is prolonged. After the catch, he relies more on toughness than pure speed to create extra yards. Overall, I view Egbuka as an impact slot receiver in the mold of former Buckeye Jaxon Smith-Njigba."

19. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Arizona (down 1)

"McMillan is a tall, rangy receiver with a Drake London-like skill set. He primarily lines up outside, though he'll take some reps in the slot. He lacks ideal suddenness or burst in his release, but he's a smooth, easy mover. His tape is littered with contested catches. Some of that spawns from an inability to consistently create separation, but it's also because he's so comfortable using his plus size to win 50/50 balls. He has outstanding body control and high-point skills. His catch radius is a real weapon in the red zone. He's been productive after the catch because of his strength and physicality. Overall, I thought London played with more urgency as a prospect, but McMillan has the potential to provide a similar impact at the next level."

20. QB Shedeur Sanders, Colorado (down 1)

"Sanders is a slightly undersized quarterback with outstanding touch, accuracy and toughness. He operates out of the 'gun and is crisp in his footwork/setup. When he has time and space in the pocket, he throws from a strong platform, showcasing a compact, smooth delivery. He really keeps his left arm tucked close to his body, which aids his ball placement. He relies more on timing and anticipation than pure velocity. He isn't a sudden/twitchy mover when pressured, and that's part of the reason why he took so many sacks over the past two seasons. Still, the main culprit was poor protection. Despite taking some hellacious hits, he hangs in the pocket and doesn't drop his eyes to see the rush. His toughness is unquestionable. Overall, Sanders doesn't have elite size, arm strength or athleticism, but he can find success in an offense based on timing and ball placement."

21. EDGE Mike Green, Marshall

"Green was an ultra-explosive and productive edge rusher for the Thundering Herd. He jumped on the radar with an outstanding performance against Ohio State in September and continued to dominate through the entire campaign. He's continued to add weight over the last year and checked in at over 250 pounds at the Reese's Senior Bowl. In the pass game, he has an excellent get-off and he can convert speed to power. He has quick hands and wins with a dip/rip on the edge. He has enjoyed success with spin moves, but he gets a little too reliant on them at times. I love his effort to keep working and refuse to stay blocked. In the run game, he knocks back tight ends at the point of attack and he can pop/separate to free himself for tackles. He is very disruptive on stunts and games. Overall, Green is a very gifted pass rusher and more than holds his own against the run."

22. EDGE Mykel Williams, Georgia

"Williams is a talented edge rusher with rare physical traits. Unfortunately, he suffered an injury in the opening game against Clemson and played through pain for the remainder of the season. When healthy, he has a dynamic get-off and can win early from the edge or when he's reduced inside. He has extremely long arms and blockers struggle to get to his chest. He has a nasty shake/bull move and he also flashes a violent swipe move to generate pressure. Against the run, he still found a way to set a physical edge even when he couldn't put much weight on one leg because of his injury. His effort never wavered. Overall, the 2024 tape isn't a fair representation of Williams' talent. He has game-changing tools when healthy and locked in."

23. EDGE Shemar Stewart, Texas A&M (up 4)

"Stewart is a long, dynamic and athletic edge rusher. He generates a lot of pressures but struggles to finish in the passing game. That's why his low sack total (4.5 in three seasons) is misleading. He still impacts the game, even without major sack production. He has a very explosive first step and uses his long-arm move to run offensive tackles back to the passer. He bends well at the top of his rush for such a big edge defender. He has an outstanding closing burst once he clears the tackle. He does need to add more moves to his arsenal, but I guarantee defensive line coaches are going to be lining up to work with him. Against the run, he can easily set the edge and he has the speed to chase and make plays on the back side. I'm sure some will struggle to see past the limited sack total, but there is just too much talent here to fall into that trap."

24. DT Derrick Harmon, Oregon (down 1)

"Harmon is a quick, disruptive defensive tackle with excellent instincts. As a pass rusher, he has quick hands to knock away the punch of opposing linemen. He also has a club/rip move that helps him collect early wins. He flashes an occasional bull rush, but I'd like to see more of it because it's effective. Against the run, he's very aware and avoids getting displaced by down blocks. He can anchor down versus double-teams and he excels at shooting gaps to disrupt and redirect runners. Overall, Harmon has a great feel for the game and can create a lot of havoc despite lacking an elite trait."

25. S Malaki Starks, Georgia (up 4)

"Starks split his time between nickelback and safety in the Bulldogs' defense. When he was in the slot, he showed quick feet with the ability to flip his hips and mirror underneath. To see him at his best, watch him carry a vertical route, stay in phase and high-point a deep ball against Clemson. From off coverage, he's aggressive to squat on routes, and he's had wins and losses because of it. He was caught flat-footed a few times in the games I studied. In the deep half, he takes good angles in pursuit and is a firm tackler in space. Sources at Georgia speak very highly of his leadership and character. Overall, Starks didn't make as many plays this past season as he did in 2023, but he has the versatility to move around the field and provide a lot of value."

26. IOL Grey Zabel, North Dakota State (down 2)

"Zabel is a versatile offensive lineman with excellent toughness and awareness. He lined up at left tackle in 2024, but he has played four O-line positions during his collegiate career. I believe he's best suited to play guard at the next level. In pass pro, he has quick feet, stays square and catches/absorbs rushers. His lack of length shows up on the perimeter. He allows defenders to capture his chest, but he still possesses the core strength and balance to stall their push. He shows the savvy to snatch rushers when they get overextended. I love his ability to fit up and drive defenders in the run game. He has a great feel on combo blocks, and he always looks to finish. He has a nasty playing style, but he doesn't get caught off-balance. Overall, I see Zabel as a Day 1 starter at guard."

27. OT Kelvin Banks Jr., Texas (up 4)

"Banks is a thick, sturdy left tackle. In pass protection, he launches out of his stance and shows the ability to sink and bend his knees. He keeps his hands inside and is patient with his punch. When he struggles, it's because he sets up too deep or his feet settle too early. Both of those areas can be cleaned up. In the run game, he has initial knock-back power, but he doesn't always strain to drive/finish. He is nimble to adjust and pick off defenders at the second level and on the perimeter. Some teams see him as more of a guard, but I believe he can hold up at tackle. Overall, Banks has some things to clean up, but I like his core foundation of strength/agility."

28. DT Walter Nolen, Mississippi

"Nolen is a twitchy defensive tackle who fits best in a penetrating style of defense. Ole Miss slanted him quite often in its defensive scheme and he created some early wins versus the run and pass. As a pass rusher, he can really get off the ball with urgency and roll his hips to jolt blockers. He flashes a violent hump move and can redirect with ease. He needs to improve his vision and awareness, though. He wins a lot of battles but fails to win the war because of his inability to locate the ball. Against the run, he can generate negative plays for the offense by shooting gaps, but he gets caught and washed at times. Overall, Nolen is extremely talented and disruptive, but he hasn't come close to reaching his potential. If he lands with the right scheme/coach, he could emerge as one of the better players in this draft class."

29. TE Mason Taylor, LSU (up 3)

"Taylor is a big, athletic tight end with excellent quickness, hands and toughness. He primarily lined up in-line, but he also flexed out in the slot and took a few reps on the outside. He's polished as a route runner, showing the ability to set up defenders, lean into them and then create separation. He has a big catch radius, hauling in balls above his head as well as below his knees. He is a pure hands-catcher, keeping the ball away from his body. He doesn't have elite top-end speed, but he is a smooth mover and can find another gear when the ball is in the air. After the catch, he can pull through tackles or make defenders miss in space. He isn't a mauler in the run game, but he can screen off and stay attached. Overall, Taylor has the ability to be a Day 1 starter with high-volume production."

30. EDGE Donovan Ezeiruaku, Boston College (down 5)

"Ezeiruaku is a compact edge rusher with outstanding length, burst and production. In the pass game, he has a very quick first step and gets on top of blockers in a hurry. He excels at prying open the outside shoulder and cornering toward the quarterback. He has a full array of moves to complement his speed rush. He has won with a club/swim, inside counter, spin move and Euro step. He's an outstanding finisher (16.5 sacks in 2024). Against the run, he needs to be more consistent using his length to stack blocks. He takes them on with his shoulder too often. He shows solid effort on the back side to chase plays. Overall, Ezeiruaku has an ideal body type to rush the passer, and he has all the tricks in his bag to win against good players."

31. DT Kenneth Grant, Michigan (down 1)

"Grant is a massive defensive tackle with intriguing quickness and power. He's very much a work in progress as a pass rusher. He flashes quick/violent hands to club/swim for wins, but far too often doesn't have a plan and stalls out. He hasn't learned to harness his strength to bull rush and consistently collapse the pocket. That should be at the top of his agenda this coming season. He's a very dominant run defender. He easily holds the point of attack, despite playing with a high pad level. I love his effort and awareness to chase down screens. If you want to see what Grant is capable of, watch Michigan's game against USC from the 2024 season. His upside was on full display that day. Unfortunately, he couldn't bottle that performance during an up-and-down season. Overall, there is some assembly required, but his physical tools are very loud and worth the investment."

32. RB TreVeyon Henderson, Ohio State (up 2)

"Henderson is a muscled-up runner with elite speed and versatility. He is patient to the hole before exploding through with high knees. He has long speed to destroy pursuit angles once he gets into the open field. He needs to improve his contact balance, though. Too often, his feet stop when met at or near the line of scrimmage. He has the lower-body strength to power through if he keeps driving his feet. In the passing game, he runs a wide variety of routes with quickness and savvy. He has strong, reliable hands. He's an elite pass protector. He is quick to identify blitzers and attack them. He strains to finish, sometimes well after the ball has been caught down the field. Overall, Henderson is a three-down weapon, brimming with big-play potential."

33. EDGE James Pearce Jr., Tennessee (down 7)

"Pearce is a long, lean edge rusher. The Volunteers moved him around in their scheme and he created havoc from a variety of entry points. His first three steps are very explosive when he's rushing off the edge. For such a lean-framed player, he can generate a lot of pocket push with his bull rush. When he's used as a walk-around blitzer, he exposes the lack of athleticism along the interior of offensive lines. They clear the runway for him and he goes to work. His pressure rate stands out among his peers in this class. Against the run, he plays bigger than his weight would suggest. He sets a firm edge, especially against tight ends. Overall, Pearce has double-digit sack potential and should make an immediate impact in the league."

34. CB Maxwell Hairston, Kentucky (up 1)

"Hairston is a lean, athletic cornerback with ideal play speed and fluidity. In press coverage, he incorporates a one-hand jam before turning and carrying vertical routes. He has plenty of burst/speed. In off coverage, he likes to settle and catch receivers at the break point. He'll need to play cleaner with his hands down the field at the next level. In Kentucky's defense, he rolled back to play in the middle of the field versus certain formations/motions, but he was late to diagnose and react from that alignment. He's willing in run support and is a dynamic blitzer. He was limited to seven games this past season due to injury. He had a very productive 2023 season (five interceptions) but wasn't targeted much in the games I studied from this past year. Overall, Hairston offers an enticing blend of movement skills and production."

35. WR Luther Burden III, Missouri (down 2)

"Burden is a quick, athletic slot receiver. He received a lot of quick hitters in Missouri's offense. He excels on underneath option routes that allow him to combine his feel to create space and his suddenness to generate yards after the catch. He has outstanding body control, giving him the ability to contort and haul in poorly thrown balls. He is at his best with the ball in his hands. He can stop/start in a hurry and possesses the agility to make defenders miss in tight quarters. He has more to offer once he gets to the next level. When given the opportunity to work down the field, he can tap into another gear and track the ball smoothly. Overall, Burden is a fun player to study and reminds me of Stefon Diggs coming out of college."

36. QB Jaxson Dart, Mississippi

"Dart has slightly below-average height and a thick/sturdy frame. He's an excellent athlete and was very productive in Lane Kiffin's offensive system. Dart connects on a lot of RPOs, quick hitters and seam balls. He has the touch to get the ball up and down at the second level. He flashed the ability to get deeper in his progression, but the first or second option was usually open. His eyes work fast and there are occasions where his feet fail to catch up, which can impact ball placement. He doesn't have a huge power arm, but he has enough to drive the ball outside the numbers without issue. His decision-making continued to improve throughout his college career, but there were still hiccups at times. I love his athleticism and competitiveness as a runner. He can create off-script and execute on designed QB runs. Overall, Dart is still a work in progress, but he possesses starter traits and his competitiveness will endear him to his teammates."

37. OT Josh Simmons, Ohio State

"Simmons is a gifted left tackle prospect. He was having an outstanding 2024 campaign before suffering a season-ending knee injury in October. He has excellent size, movement skills and balance. In the passing game, he has a smooth/fluid set. He can easily redirect and plays with a wide/firm base. He uses a sharp punch before steering and controlling defenders. He will overset on occasion, but he's nimble enough to redirect and recover. In the run game, he plays under control, stays on his feet and maintains leverage/position. He can adjust in space on combos. The main question with Simmons is health. What he put on tape this fall should generate plenty of optimism about his chances of becoming a quality starting left tackle in the NFL."

38. RB Quinshon Judkins, Ohio State

"Judkins is a powerful, compact runner with outstanding career production. He is very decisive and aggressive on inside runs. He runs low to the ground and hunts the unblocked defender with a thirst for violence. He has a vicious stiff-arm, provided he doesn't simply lower his shoulder and run through the defender. On perimeter runs, he usually looks to square up and get vertical as soon as possible. He isn't as polished in the passing game as Ohio State teammate TreVeyon Henderson, but he's competent as a screen/checkdown option and he's aware in pass protection. He's at his best in the four-minute offense. He closed out the Penn State game with one punishing run after another. Overall, Judkins has areas to improve, but he is a natural runner and he's built to carry a full load as a starter."

39. OT Josh Conerly Jr., Oregon

"Conerly has an athletic frame with solid bulk and long arms. He lined up at left tackle for the Ducks. In the pass game, he pops out of his stance with quick feet and is patient with his hands. He can cut off speed rushers and effectively redirect versus counters. He does have some hip tightness and lacks ideal sink and bend. He lunges on occasion, putting himself in bad positions. In the run game, he fits well initially but needs to improve his ability to stay attached and finish. He plays under control at the second level and out in space. Overall, Conerly isn't an elite athlete, but he has the tools to develop into a solid starter in time."

40. LB Carson Schwesinger, UCLA (up 4)

"Schwesinger is an ultra-instinctive linebacker with range and cover ability. Against the run, he is quick to key/diagnose. He is adept at beating blockers to spots, dipping underneath and avoiding them with quickness. He struggles to free himself when he's forced to engage blocks. He has outstanding lateral range, and while he lacks thump, he's a reliable tackler. He is smooth and fluid in coverage and has the agility to mirror/match tight ends and running backs. I love his play speed and energy. He chases plays all over the field. Overall, Schwesinger isn't the most imposing figure, but he's going to rack up production because of his blend of speed and instincts."

41. IOL Donovan Jackson, Ohio State

"Jackson has ideal size, strength and bend as an interior offensive lineman. He is best suited at guard, but he stepped up to play left tackle after the Buckeyes lost their starter at the position in the middle of the 2024 season. In the pass game, he sets with a firm anchor, bends his knees and stays attached. He can slide and redirect smoothly. He is keenly aware on twists and stunts. In the run game, he creates movement on down blocks. He has the quickness and athleticism to kick out defenders on outside pulls. He has enough foot speed to reach and seal on the back side. His overall hand placement is excellent in both the run and pass game. He had a couple tough reps against Abdul Carter, but I was impressed with his overall competitiveness at tackle. He is more than functional at that position, but I see him as a top-tier guard."

42. CB Trey Amos, Mississippi

"Amos has excellent size (6-foot 3/4, 195 pounds) and is a fluid/smooth athlete. He split five seasons between three different schools (Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi) during his college career, leading Ole Miss with 13 pass breakups in 2024. He has average twitch and burst, but he plays with excellent instincts and ball skills. He can play the ball with his back to the quarterback as well as any cornerback in this draft. The only real question I had about his game was his top-end speed and he alleviated those concerns with a 4.43-second 40-yard dash at the combine."

43. EDGE Landon Jackson, Arkansas (up 3)

"Amos has excellent size (6-foot 3/4, 195 pounds) and is a fluid/smooth athlete. He split five seasons between three different schools (Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi) during his college career, leading Ole Miss with 13 pass breakups in 2024.

The only real question I had about his game was his top-end speed and he alleviated those concerns with a 4.43-second 40-yard dash at the combine."

44. CB Benjamin Morrison, Notre Dame (down 4)

"Morrison is a smooth, easy mover with ball skills. He had a history of strong production before suffering a season-ending injury in October. He excels in off coverage, with a fluid pedal and excellent awareness. He understands down-and-distance situations, settling and closing without wasting any movement. He can effortlessly flip his hips and run with vertical routes. In press coverage, he flashes the physicality to re-route, but he will lose his balance at times and get beat early in the down. He is a willing tackler, sticking his chest into ball-carriers to get them on the ground. He flashed timing and burst as a blitzer. Overall, Morrison has the tools to emerge as a quality starting cornerback provided he returns to full health."

45. EDGE Nic Scourton, Texas A&M (up 4)

"Scourton is a thick/square edge rusher. He was a highly productive pass rusher at Purdue (10 sacks in 2023) before joining Texas A&M for the 2024 season. He has torque and power as a rusher. He also possesses a nifty inside spin and an effective chop/rip move to win one-on-one matchups. He doesn't have elite get-off, but he shows quickness when redirecting. He is very stout/strong as a run defender and plays with effort. Overall, he lacks elite traits but he's very instinctive, productive and tough."

46. WR Jayden Higgins, Iowa State (previously not ranked)

"Higgins has outstanding size (6-4, 214 pounds) and play speed. He can play inside, but he's at his best on the perimeter. He can separate vertically and he's efficient in/out of breaks for a bigger wideout. He has strong, reliable hands and fights for the ball in the air. He draws a lot of pass interference penalties. He has sneaky stop/start quickness after the catch, too. His combination of body frame and athleticism reminds me of Nico Collins when he was coming out of Michigan in 2021."

47. IOL Jonah Savaiinaea, Arizona (previously not ranked)

"Savaiinaea was a massive offensive lineman for Arizona, playing right tackle for the bulk of the last two seasons. I'm projecting him inside to guard at the next level. In pass pro, he plays with a wide base and strong/firm hands. He has some tightness, which limits his ability to sink and bend. However, he is still able to absorb power rushers after giving some ground. His issues redirecting at tackle should be mitigated with a move inside. In the run game, he can wash defenders down the line and he's quick to the second level. Overall, Savaiinaea is a starting-caliber guard right now and there will be more upside as he continues to develop."

48. DT Darius Alexander, Toledo (down 1)

"Alexander has excellent size, length and athleticism for his position. He primarily aligned inside at defensive tackle during his time at Toledo, but he did take some reps on the edge in the games I studied. As a pass rusher, he flashes an explosive shake/bull, with the quickness to redirect and cross the face of blockers. He can get a little too high at times, which neutralizes his ability to create pocket push. He showed improvement and more polish at the Reese's Senior Bowl. Against the run, he uses his length to stack and control blockers. He plays with balance and he's adept at throwing his hip at the double team to hold his ground. He is an older prospect as a sixth-year senior, but I believe he will be a Day 1 impact player on all three downs."

49. EDGE J.T. Tuimoloau, Ohio State (previously not ranked)

"Tuimoloau is a big, athletic edge rusher. As a pass rusher, he has a nice mix of polish and power. He doesn't have an elite get-off, but he can jolt offensive tackles once he gets to their chest with his length. He annihilates tight ends every time he's matched up with them. Against the run, he can set a firm edge. He's quick to locate the ball and chase. He's a sneaky good athlete in space. Overall, Tuimoloau is a steady player on tape and should be ready to make an impact right away in the NFL."

50. WR Jaylin Noel, Iowa State (previously not ranked)

"Noel is a compact slot receiver with outstanding quickness and toughness. He can defeat press coverage with speed, quickness or strength. He is sudden at the top of routes, and he can tap into another gear with the ball in his hands. I love the overall urgency he plays with in all facets of the game. Everyone around the Iowa State program raves about his work ethic and competitiveness. Overall, Noel has the traits to become a playmaking slot receiver as soon as he arrives in the NFL."
