Auburn • Sr • 6’1″ / 164 lbs

Mississippi State • Sr • 6’2″ / 195 lbs
Length and awesome athletic skill at the boundary cornerback spot for Mike Macdonald in Seattle. |
|||||||
North Carolina • Jr • 6’2″ / 200 lbs
Why not reunite Walker with Drake Maye in New England? Love his ability to get vertical and track the football over his shoulder. |

Oregon • Jr • 6’3″ / 187 lbs
Cardinals get a receiver many mocked in the late first or early second with downfield acumen. |
|||||||
Iowa State • Sr • 6’2″ / 200 lbs Tampa doesn’t have elite athletic chops or speed but suffocates at the line of scrimmage plays with great physicality in the route. |
|||||||
North Carolina • Sr • 6’2″ / 235 lbs
Gray is one of the younger but more polished off-ball linebackers in the class. |

|||||||

Dorlus is a do-everything disruptor up front and that’s what the Vikings need on defense. |
|||||||
Texas Tech • Sr • 5’11” / 195 lbs
Taylor-Demerson is one of the most explosive, rangy free safeties in the class. Would be fun next to Jessie Bates III. |
|||||||
Missouri • Jr • 5’11” / 178 lbs Abrams-Draine is a feisty nickel Jim Harbaugh will get Mike Sainristil vibes from. |
|||||||
LSU • Jr • 6’1″ / 295 lbs
Wingo can win with first-step quickness and flashed some hand work. He plays with high energy like everyone else on the Jets defensive line. |
|||||||
Wake Forest • Jr • 6’0″ / 195 lbs
The longtime star at Wake Forest lands with the Raiders in hopes of giving the defense more turnover-creation ability. |
|||||||
Wake Forest • Jr • 5’11” / 207 lbs
Mustapha plays with his hair on fire at safety and can align in the slot. Ravens-type supercharged defensive back. |
|||||||
Oregon • Sr • 6’3″ / 195 lbs
The former Alabama cornerback thrived at Oregon thanks to his immense size and physical traits. |
|||||||
Kansas • Soph • 6’6″ / 245 lbs
Given the uncertain future of Trey Hendrickson, the Bengals address the edge-rusher spot with a raw but athletic specimen in Booker. |
|||||||
Arkansas • Sr • 6’5″ / 307 lbs
Multi-year starter with serious power and explosiveness to give the Jaguars depth and a future starter at center or guard |
|||||||
Washington State • Jr • 5’11” / 176 lbs
Smith-Wade is another one of the many sudden, pesky slot cornerbacks in this class. He can learn from Kenny Moore in Indianapolis. |
|||||||
Georgia • Jr • 6’4″ / 310 lbs
Interior offensive line fortification for the Seahawks with the SEC battle-tested center. |
|||||||
Penn State • Jr • 6’6″ / 260 lbs
The Steelers love their TE1 but grab the highly athletic Johnson as an upside-based TE2. |
|||||||
Maryland • Sr • 6’1″ / 210 lbs
Brade is a sizable, well-rounded safety who will add more of a physical presence to the Eagles safety room. |
|||||||
UCF • Sr • 6’1″ / 208 lbs
How about a receiver who can go up and get it and get open for Bo Nix? |
|||||||
Troy • Jr • 6’2″ / 249 lbs
The Troy standout is the type of pass-rushing specialist the Bears could use opposite Montez Sweat. |
|||||||
Florida State • Jr • 6’7″ / 237 lbs
More weaponry for Jalen Hurts with the enormous rebounder in Wilson on the outside. |
|||||||
Texas • Sr • 6’3″ / 242 lbs Given Dre Greenlaw’s injury, the 49ers get a cerebral off-ball linebacker for depth purposes. |

Clemson • Jr • 6’0″ / 230 lbs
Trotter Jr. is a rocket to the football and flashed some coverage ability in 2023 at Clemson. |

Randolph is a sleek and slippery interior rusher with upside and plenty of experience. |
|||||||
Louisville • Jr • 6’1″ / 185 lbs
Thrash is a bit skinny, but he’s sudden and flexible, so he gets open. Then he morphs into a running back after the catch. |
|||||||
Washington State • Soph • 6’3″ / 212 lbs
Hicks is too big and too athletic for the Jets to pass on him here. |
|||||||
Miami (FL) • Jr • 6’5″ / 215 lbs
The plan would be to make Williams a linebacker full time. He has reasonable coverage talent for that position, too. |
|||||||
USC • Sr • 6’3″ / 210 lbs
More downfield options for Patrick Mahomes. Rice isn’t a get-open type but has long-striding speed. |
|||||||
Ohio State • Sr • 6’4″ / 251 lbs
Stover will have no qualms about being a TE3 or TE2 and do the dirty work as a blocker. His burst and fluidity give him some receiving upside too. |
|||||||
Oregon • Jr • 5’10” / 195 lbs
Irving didn’t test well but is a nightmare to corral in space an awesome in the screen game. |
|||||||
South Carolina • Sr • 6’1″ / 217 lbs

|||||||
