Dante Moore is a composed, confident pocket passer who thrives under pressure, consistently working through progressions and delivering accurate, tight-window throws with anticipation. He’s highly effective when moving the launch point, showing the arm strength and touch to attack every level of the field — often off-platform. While not a true dual-threat, Moore’s poise, vision and athleticism allow him to extend plays and create when protection breaks down, and he repeatedly shows up in big moments.

Rueben Bain Jr. is an explosive, violent edge rusher with rare power and bend, capable of turning the corner from wide alignments and overwhelming tackles with speed-to-power. He wins with a deep arsenal of pass-rush moves — from bull rushes to inside counters — and plays with exceptional contact balance and hand usage to shed blocks both as a rusher and run defender. Relentlessly disruptive and highly explosive off the snap, Bain consistently collapses pockets, sets a firm edge and makes impact plays from whistle to whistle.

Peter Woods is a powerful, explosive interior defensive lineman who consistently wins at the point of attack with violent hands, low pad level and exceptional strength. He’s immovable against the run — stacking, shedding and disrupting plays in the backfield while maintaining gap integrity — and can overwhelm interior blockers. Though not reliant on a deep move set, Woods’ athleticism, effort and persistence allow him to collapse pockets and create chaos from multiple alignments.

First, Keldric Faulk just turned 20 years old in September. Second, he’s unofficially 6-foot-6 and 288 pounds. Third, he’s already near-elite as a run defender. The power and athleticism with which he plays makes it an easy projection to see him as a dominant pass rusher down the road. Maybe it doesn’t happen this season, and maybe it doesn’t happen until, say, Year 2 in the league, but when it all comes together, it’s going to be scary.

Caleb Downs could be a Troy Polamalu-level talent in the NFL. He’s only 5-foot-11, and he may not end up running a 4.35-second 40-yard dash, but I don’t care. Not even a little bit. Both Kyle Hamilton and Brian Branch slipped on draft day because of mediocre 40 times. They’re two of the best young defensive backs in football. Downs is a run-game enforcer who has the sideline-to-sideline juice, coupled with the short-area burst, to excel in pass coverage.

You want to get nuts? Let’s get nuts. The Browns trade back into the first round to get a QB. Mateer is a fearless, dual-threat playmaker. Good luck finding someone who plays with more confidence than he does.

He is incredibly elusive in the pocket, using his quickness and athleticism to avoid sacks, extend plays and gain yards with his legs. When on time, he can deliver accurate second-level throws and is an aggressive passer who trusts his abilities implicitly.
