Round 42 of 6<\/p>\n
101. Las Vegas Raiders: CB Jermod McCoy, Tennessee<\/p>\n
The Las Vegas Raiders ended the slide. The organization even ensured they’d land Jermod McCoy by flipping picks with the Buffalo Bills to open the draft’s Day 3 activities.<\/p>\n
The Raiders are taking a big swing on top-tier talent who may have a degenerative knee. Atop the fourth round, the pick is well worth the risk.<\/p>\n
Legitimately, McCoy could have easily been a top-five draft pick had he been healthy during the 2025 campaign.Unfortunately, he wasn’t.<\/p>\n
The 20 year-old prospect suffered a torn ACL during offseason training in January of 2025. Despite the Volunteers program continually hinting that he might play at some point last year, the possibility never materialized. So, NFL scouts had to look back to his ’24 tape.<\/p>\n
McCoy was named a second-team All-American as a true sophomore for a reason. He was phenomenal during that campaign, with some of the best tape of any prospect in this year’s class. The excitement of his potential, as seen then, compared to a lost season mitigated the cornerback’s draft standing.<\/p>\n
Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n
Strengths: Far more advanced in coverage than age indicates, has the athleticism to excel in man coverage and instincts to thrive in zone, quick-twitch reflexes<\/p>\n
Weaknesses: Missed all of the 2025 campaign due to a knee injury, can do a better job with jam and understanding of spacing in zone coverage<\/p>\n

Buffalo Bills: OT Jude Bowry, Boston College<\/p>\n The Buffalo Bills address offense for the first time in this year’s class. With the team’s first two picks, Buffalo sought talent to help reshape the defense in Jim Leonard’s image.<\/p>\n Jude Bowry gives the Bills a swing tackle behind Dion Dawkins and Spencer Brown. The incoming rookie greatly struggled at the Senior Bowl when blocking on an island.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Explosive athlete, good fluidity, can anchor<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Poor technique and leverage, not aggressive enough<\/p>\n Complete scouting report <\/a>via Brandon Thorn of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 103. New York Jets: DL Darrell Jackson Jr., Florida State<\/p>\n The New York Jets defense looks drastically different now, and Darrell Jackson adds a much-needed space-eater alongside T’Vondre Sweat and Mazi Smith. The Jets are going to be bigger, stronger and tougher in the middle, that’s for sure.<\/p>\n Jackson’s collegiate career didn’t go as planned. The defensive tackle transferred to Florida State after stops at Maryland and Miami. He only played in one game during the 2023 campaign after the NCAA ruled him ineligible.\u00a0<\/p>\n The ’24 season wasn’t great for the program, but Jackson flashed. He regressed to a degree this past year when he didn’t have Joshua Farmer, a fourth-round pick by the New England Patriots, Marvin Jones Jr., and Patrick Payton playing alongside him.<\/p>\n Still, his role as an interior space-eater is plain to see.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Size, length and strength to be an NFL nose tackle capable of two-gapping if necessary, stacks and sheds, violent at the point of attack, good effort<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Lacks burst off the line of scrimmage, tends to play high thanks to stiffness in lower body, little upside as pass-rusher<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 104. Arizona Cardinals: DL Kaleb Proctor, Southeastern Louisiana<\/p>\n Kaleb Proctor is one of the class’s best interior pass-rushers. He can play base end and reduce down in sub-packages. He’s a nice piece to place alongside Jordan Burch and Walter Nolen, who present similar flexibility.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Good acceleration despite larger frame, power rusher, can work and stunt up and down line of scrimmage<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Poor against the run, needs to improve hand usage and hip sink, slow reading keys<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 105. Los Angeles Chargers: WR Brenen Thompson, Mississippi State<\/p>\n The Los Angeles Chargers needed speed at wide receiver, and they could have drafted the fastest wide receiver in this year’s class because there wasn’t one. Brenen Thompson blazed a 4.26-second 40-yard dash at this year’s NFL combine. His deep speed will open up the field for Ladd McConkey.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Elite-top end speed, quick acceleration and stop-start ability<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Slight frame, lacks length, can be knocked off routes<\/p>\n Complete scouting report <\/a>via Dame Parson of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 106. Houston Texans: IOL Febechi Nwaiwu, Oklahoma<\/p>\n The Houston Texans continue to strengthen their offensive line, not only with new starters but also by lengthening the bench. Febechi Nwaiwu can play both guard and center, instantly providing the Texans with an interior utility option.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Stout and strong, good eyes to pick up movement, interior flexibility<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Phone-booth blocker, never going to be great getting to second-level blocks<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Brandon Thorn of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 107. San Francisco 49ers: DL Gracen Halton, Oklahoma<\/p>\n Gracen Halton’s addition to the San Francisco 49ers’ lineup is interesting because he helps solve a problem that’s usually reserved for another position. The Niners already addressed edge with Romello Height. Halton is an interior disruptor with pass-rush upside.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Disruptive, quick off snap, lateral agility, consistent motor<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Small frame and length, plays high, not great at point of attack<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 108. Denver Broncos: RB Jonah Coleman, Washington<\/p>\n Jonah Coleman is an ideal complementary back to RJ Harvey, while providing insurance considering JK Dobbins’ injury history. The incoming rookie ball-carrier knows how to slam it between the tackles and grind out tough yards.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Big, tough runner, short-yardage specialist, patient and great balance<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Not explosive and doesn’t add much in pass game<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Dame Parson of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 109. Kansas City Chiefs: CB Jadon Canady, Oregon<\/p>\n Jadon Canady’s selection fits perfectly into the Kansas City Chiefs’ plans to rebuild their secondary. After trading up for Mansoor Delane, the Chiefs now have a new CB1 to lock down top targets on the outside. Meanwhile, Canady is a tailor-made nickel corner to take over that role immediately. KC might be young in their secondary now, but the unit is extremely talented.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Experience playing any CB role, plays more physical than size indicates, reads developing plays well<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Poor tackling angles, needs to finish better at the point of contact, can get stuck on blocks<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Daniel Harms of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 110. New York Jets: QB Cade Klubnik, Clemson<\/p>\n Once upon a time, Cade Klubnik was viewed as a potential first-round candidate. He looked like an ascending QB prospect coming out of the 2024 campaign. But he, like most of the Clemson Tigers, disappointed last year.<\/p>\n For the New York Jets, they now have a legitimate developmental option behind Geno Smith, which was desperately needed.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Good athlete and decision-maker when running RPOs and half-field reads, throws with anticipation when he sees it early and isn’t pressured<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Doesn’t read the whole field, needs to be more consistent with footwork as a true dropback passer, can be confused by post-snap movement<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Dame Parson of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 111. Denver Broncos: OT Kage Casey, Boise State<\/p>\n Kage Casey is next in line of Boise State’s great left tackle lineage. Seriously, look it up. Ryan Clady was one of those left tackles and he went on to be a good one for the Denver Broncos.<\/p>\n The Broncos go back to the program to find a swing option. Keep in mind, Garett Bolles and Mike McGlinchey are both 31 or older.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Extensive starting experience, play-strength, understands angles and timing<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Lacks length, short edge, stiff lower half<\/p>\n Complete scouting report <\/a>via Brandon Thorn of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 112. Dallas Cowboys: OT Drew Shelton, Penn State<\/p>\n After spending their first three picks on the defensive side of the ball\u2013as they should have\u2013the Dallas Cowboys finally flip to the offense. They did so to build offensive line depth.<\/p>\n Penn State’s Drew Shelton had buzz early in this year’s draft cycle but didn’t show the level of growth to warrant early consideration. Still, he can be a long-term swing option at offensive tackle or potentially replace Terence Steele at right tackle in a couple of years.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Long and lean, excels at blocking on the move, excellent initial burst<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Marginal play strength, too many quick losses, technique lapses<\/p>\n Complete scouting report <\/a>via Brandon Thorn of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 113. Indianapolis Colts: IOL Jalen Farmer, Kentucky<\/p>\n The Indianapolis Colts want to be a power running team. They excel with bigger, more physical interior blockers. Kentucky’s Jalen Farmer fits the bill. He’s going to immediately provide depth behind Quenton Nelson and Matt Goncalves. If he cross-trains at center, all the better.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Sturdy and strong with jarring hands, can uproot defender, good puller<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Questionable lateral agility and recovery skills<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Brandon Thorn of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 114. Dallas Cowboys: CB Devin Moore, Florida<\/p>\n The Dallas Cowboys didn’t wait long to get back to addressing their defense. Florida’s Devin Moore addresses the cornerback position after getting standout safety Caleb Downs earlier. The Cowboys have established starters at corner, but they can be upgraded, as their performance has been erratic in recent years. <\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Long-limbed, patient in coverage, flies up against the run<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Lacks recovery speed, needs to improve route-recognition<\/p>\n Complete scouting report <\/a>via Daniel Harms of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 115. Baltimore Ravens: WR Elijah Sarratt, Indiana<\/p>\n The Baltimore Ravens clearly wanted more size at wide receiver. They now have Ja’Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt to serve as outside targets.<\/p>\n Sarratt was simultaneously Fernando Mendoza’s favorite target on money downs, yet the third-best wide receiver on the Hoosiers’ roster during their national championship run.<\/p>\n If Mendoza needed a play on third down or in the red zone, IU’s quarterback knew he could trust Sarratt, particularly on back-shoulder throws. The wide receiver delivered over and over again. Conversely, Sarratt isn’t explosive, lacks an elite gear and relies heavily on his near 6’3″ frame and excellent body control to win. He will likely struggle to create separation at the next level. But he can be a reliable option when a difficult catch is necessary. Just ask Mendoza.<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Reliable in biggest moments, strong hands, plays through contact, understands how to use his body to shield defenders, excellent short- to mid-range target<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Doesn’t have the speed to stack corners on vertical routes, shorter arms despite bigger frame, route-running masks a lack of explosive traits<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Dame Parson of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 116. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: CB Keionte Scott, Miami<\/p>\n Keiontae Scott is a demon working from the slot. He can do anything when working over interior wide receivers, particularly as a downhill playmaker. He will be exposed in coverage at times, but Todd Bowles is aggressive enough within the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ defense to maximize Scott’s tendencies.<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Triggers downhill instantaneously, adept blitzer, always aggressive, comfortable working short zones<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Don’t ask him to be a match-up cover corner, does not fare well the further he works away from the line of scrimmage<\/p>\n Complete scouting report <\/a>via Daniel Harms of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 117. Los Angeles Chargers: OT Travis Burke, Memphis<\/p>\n Travis Burke screams Jim Harbaugh offensive lineman, which is why the Los Angeles Chargers chose him. Even though Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt are expected to be healthy this season, the organization won’t allow last year to happen again. Burke can immediately fill in as right tackle if the team is beset by a rash of injuries again.<\/p>\n The near-6’9″, 325-pound Burke is a gargantuan offensive tackle prospect. He did start two full seasons at left tackle while playing at Florida International, though he only started at right tackle after taking a step up in competition during his one season with the Tigers.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Massive frame, long arms and big wingspan, powerful, looks to finish blocks<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Tends to play high, relies on length in pass protection because footwork is sluggish<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Brandon Thorn of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 118. Detroit Lions: LB Jimmy Rolder, Michigan<\/p>\n The Detroit Lions continue to go to the well, selecting their second-straight Michigan Wolverine. Jimmy Rolder fits the locker room’s personality to a team because he’s going to play at 110 MPH and blow up as many plays as possible. He’s not just linebacker depth; he should be a special teams ace as well.<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Good instincts, physical downhill defender, reliable tackler<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Can be overaggressive, struggles in zone coverage<\/p>\n Complete scouting report <\/a>via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 119. Jacksonville Jaguars: EDGE Wesley Williams, Duke<\/p>\n It’s obvious. The Jacksonville Jaguars don’t care about value in this year’s draft class. Wesley Williams is yet another pick where the Jags probably jumped the gun much earlier than other teams would have considered him. Still, he’ll provide some juice as a disruptive edge.<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Thick, powerful, plays with good leverage<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Straight-line pass-rusher, lack lateral agility and flexibility<\/p>\n Complete scouting report via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 120. Green Bay Packers: EDGE Dani Dennis-Sutton, Penn State<\/p>\n The Green Bay Packers continue to reshape their defense, with a third-straight pick on that side of the ball. Dani Dennis-Sutton is the type of long, athletic and straight-line pass-rusher the organization tends to like, though.<\/p>\n Dennis-Sutton is the latest in a line of high-end athletes among defensive linemen produced by the Nittany Lions program. The near-6’6″, 256-pound prospect posted a 9.98 relative athletic<\/a> score during predraft testing. His natural gifts didn’t always reflect on the field, though there were times when Dennis-Sutton looked unblockable. If the two-time third-team All-Big Ten performer finds consistency where his performance directly reflects his athletic profile on a down-by-down basis, he can be a top-end edge at the professional level.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Long-limbed, consistently works his hands, stacks and sheds in run game<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Explosive athletic traits aren’t representative of play-style, straight-line pass-rusher, struggles to finish<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 121. Pittsburgh Steelers: WR Kaden Wetjen, Iowa<\/p>\n The Pittsburgh Steelers value special teams. They must, because Kaden Wetjen is the best returner in this year’s class. He’s dynamic with the ball in his hands.<\/p>\n Don’t undervalue what he can do as a wide receiver, either. Wetjen has that short-area quickness and ability to snap off routes that can make him a viable slot receiver in future years.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Elite return skills, can be a major threat with manufactured offensive touches, underrated route-runner<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Small frame, poor play-strength, must improve hand usage at catch point<\/p>\n Complete scouting report <\/a>via Dame Parson of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 122. Las Vegas Raiders: RB Mike Washington Jr., Arkansas<\/p>\n The Las Vegas Raiders are sincerely doing everything in their power to help Fernando Mendoza succeed. Mike Washington Jr.’s addition gives the team another big-play threat working in the backfield. Obviously, Ashton Jeanty is the lead back, but Washington allows the Raiders to be a run-first team with a dynamic two-headed monster.<\/p>\n A better combination of size and speed won’t be found among this year’s running back class. Washington is a well-defined 223-pound ball-carrier, who probably played closer to 230 at Arkansas. He then blazed a 4.33-second 40-yard dash at this year’s NFL Scouting Combine. The effort ranked first among his position group. Overall, Washington was the only one in attendance to run an official 4.35 or better while weighing 220 or more pounds.<\/p>\n The two-time transfer isn’t just a workout warrior. He was a second-team All-SEC performer this past season after rushing for 1,070 yards, averaging 6.4 yards per carry and scoring eight touchdowns.<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Powerful, downhill runner with elite straight-line speed, quick to make a decision and cut, short-area acceleration<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Not the most fluid athlete to hit outside runs or make defenders miss, ball security issues, underdeveloped in the passing game<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Dame Parson of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 123. Houston Texans: LB Wade Woodaz, Clemson<\/p>\n It’s really hard to argue with a linebacker pick by the Houston Texans when DeMeco Ryans is the head coach. Clearly, the organization understands the position. Still, Wade Woodaz was even ranked among the Bleacher Report Scouting Department, which didn’t have the Clemson product ranked among its Top 300 prospects. The incoming rookie does provide much-needed depth behind Houston’s established starting linebackers.<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Good pursuit, solid athlete with tackle-to-tackle range, core-four special teamer<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Lacks play-strength, gets hung up on blocks, minimal force upon contact<\/p>\n Complete scouting report via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 124. Chicago Bears: CB Malik Muhammad, Texas<\/p>\n The Chicago Bears found value with Malik Muhammad in the third round, when he was generally considered a Day 2 talent throughout this year’s draft cycle. He has the ability to challenge Tyrique Stevenson as a starting corner on the Bears’ roster. <\/p>\n In a cornerback class defined by undersized yet highly competitive types, Muhammad is a little different because he’s 6’0″, albeit at 182 pounds, with arms over 32 inches long. He’s going to be physical and still compete on a consistent level. However, he should be able to stay outside without being seen as a hindrance, unlike other classmates.<\/p>\n Even so, the second-team All-SEC performer will struggle because of his slender frame. Despite being ultra-competitive, he lacks play strength, which could be an issue against the NFL’s bigger, more talented coverage assignments.<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Smooth, quick feet and fluid hipturn, top gear to stay in phase at all three levels, excels in man-coverage but smart zone defender<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Needs to add a little built to improve play-strength, can be overaggressive on pump-fakes and double-moves<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Daniel Harms of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 125. Buffalo Bills: WR Skyler Bell, UConn<\/p>\n The Buffalo Bills waited to add a wide receiver and still landed a capable target, who will push for reps immediately, in Connecticut’s Skyler Bell. He could easily usurp the role previously reserved for Keon Coleman, though they have different skill sets.<\/p>\n The Wisconsin transfer went from an offense known for its running game to one that set receiving records during his final season with the Huskies. Bell became a volume receiver at Connecticut, with 101 receptions, 1,278 yards and 13 touchdown grabs during his final campaign.<\/p>\n Interestingly, Bell’s production was at its highest against UConn’s top competition last year. The Huskies faced three Power Four programs in 2025. The consensus All-American caught 32 passes for 319 yards and three touchdowns in those contests.<\/p>\n Throw in a 4.40-second 40-yard dash, 41-inch vertical jump and 10-inch hands, and Bell clearly has something despite not regularly playing against top competition.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Understands route tempo, how to create separation, and importance of creating space against man and finding space against zone, good after catch with some verticality<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Can handle a significant workload but does not have the frame or play-strength to consistently work through contact, needs a better release package<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Dame Parson of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 126. Buffalo Bills: LB Kaleb Elarms-Orr, TCU<\/p>\n The Buffalo Bills have experienced numerous injuries at linebacker over the years. A high-end athlete who provides depth and possibly long-term starting potential in Kaleb Elarms-Orr is a quality pick in the fourth round to ensure the team is set at the position. Plus, Elarms-Orr will immediately contribute on special teams.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Fantastic athlete, good speed, understands assignments in zone coverage\u00a0<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Lean with poor play-strength, doesn’t match up well with tight ends in coverage, gets caught up in trash too often<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 127. San Francisco 49ers: IOL Carver Willis, Washington<\/p>\n The San Francisco 49ers’ selection of Carver Willis is intriguing because he was often projected at guard, which is how he was announced with the pick itself. However, he was a collegiate left tackle. His fit in this scheme may give him an opportunity to develop at multiple positions. San Francisco still needs a long-term replacement for Trent Williams.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Fires off the ball and gets into his assignments, well-versed run blocker, consistently strains to finish<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Poor length and lateral movement, tends to play over his toes<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Brandon Thorn of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 128. Cincinnati Bengals: IOL Connor Lew, Auburn<\/p>\n Connor Lew could have easily been the draft class’s top center prospect had he not suffered a torn ACL during his final season on campus. For the Cincinnati Bengals, they still have Ted Karras at center, so Lew won’t be rushed into the lineup. But Karras is now 33 years old.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Quick, flat-backed out of stance, understands the position pre-snap and movement post-snap, can make blocks on the move and second level<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Coming off major injury, lacks bulk and play-strength<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Brandon Thorn of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 129. Carolina Panthers: CB Will Lee III, Texas A&M<\/p>\n Will Lee is one of the best pure cover corners in this year’s draft class. Why did he fall to the fourth round? He’s also allergic to contact as a tackler. Lee can get in anyone’s back pocket and remain sticky throughout the route. He actively avoids defending the run, though. He’s essentially the opposite of the more physical Mike Jackson already on the Carolina Panthers’ roster.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Fluid lower body, sticky in man coverage, tracks ball well<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Avoids physicality, tends to get grabby<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Daniel Harms of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 130. Miami Dolphins: LB Trey Moore, Texas<\/p>\n Trey Moore provides the Miami Dolphins’ defensive front with more flexibility. Technically, he’s a linebacker, but he also has plenty of experience working off the edge, with 8.5 sacks over the last two seasons. With Jordyn Brooks and Jacob Rodriguez at off-ball linebacker, Moore can be a sub-package option to play multiple roles within Jeff Hafley’s defense.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Extensive playing experience, on- and off-ball ability, more comfortable working in space than expected<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Lacks top-end burst, smaller frame when working against offensive tackles, and instincts are still developing<\/p>\n Complete scouting report via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 131. Los Angeles Chargers: S Genesis Smith, Arizona<\/p>\n Genesis Smith is another positionless player added to the Los Angeles Chargers’ defense. Derwin James is the prototype for malleable defensive backs. Smith can play alongside James and provide a movable piece, particularly along the Los Angeles back line.\u00a0<\/p>\n Typically, the conversation over whether a safety prospect veers more toward a free or strong version doesn’t happen as often today, because coaches emphasize versatility so defenders don’t need to be taken off the field.<\/p>\n In Smith’s case, he presents a pure free safety skill. He can work in the box and over the slot, though he’s not nearly as effective, as his game is predicated on playing the deep third or half to capitalize on his natural playmaking skills along the back end.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Covers a lot of ground as a deep safety, reads quarterbacks’ eyes to make plays on the ball, does have experience at multiple spots<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Inconsistent angles and tackling, spatial awareness in zone coverage is suspect<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Daniel Harms of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 132. New Orleans Saints: IOL Jeremiah Wright, Auburn<\/p>\n The New Orleans Saints needed depth along their offensive interior and Jeremiah Wright achieves the goal. Wright brings another powerful blocker who consistently wins at the point of attack. It should be noted that right guard Cesar Ruiz doesn’t have any guaranteed money on his current contract going into the 2027 campaign.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Thick, powerful frame, likes to finish, stays square to not give up soft edges<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Poor movement skills, strength over skill<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Brandon Thorn of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 133. Baltimore Ravens: TE Matthew Hibner, SMU<\/p>\n The Baltimore Ravens are executing a plan to get bigger and more physical on offense, albeit through the skill positions. After taking two larger outside receivers earlier in the class, the Ravens added SMU’s Matthew Hibner, another bigger target to give the team more options at tight end. Granted, he’s more of an H-back, but it’s just another option that’s not undersized when working the route tree.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Threatens seam, works hard at the point of attack, fights for the ball<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Tight, straight-line athlete, minimal route tree, plays over toes when blocking<\/p>\n Complete scouting report via Daniel Harms of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 134. Atlanta Falcons: LB Kendal Daniels, Oklahoma<\/p>\n Kendal Daniels is a massive former safety who may present more flexibility than this pick initially indicates. At 6’5″ and 242 pounds, one has to wonder if the linebacker-convert isn’t seen as some insurance as a developmental outside edge option. Even if he isn’t, he can help in sub-packages and special teams.<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Huge frame, good length, athleticism to match up with safety and blitz<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Developmental instincts, will struggle to take on blocks<\/p>\n Complete scouting report via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 135. Indianapolis Colts: LB Bryce Boettcher, Oregon<\/p>\n The Indianapolis Colts entered this year’s draft with the league’s worst linebacker room. The team has massively improved the position group after the selections of CJ Allen and Bryce Boettcher. Akeem Davis-Gaither is expected to start next to Allen as the team’s top two off-ball backers. The veteran signed a one-year deal, though. Boettcher could realistically be the Colts’ long-term weakside linebacker.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: All-around athlete, sideline-to-sideline coverage, good instincts, works through traffic well<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Lacks size and strength to take on and shed blocks, doesn’t bring much upon contact, 24-year-old rookie<\/p>\n Complete scouting report <\/a>via Matt Holder of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 136. New Orleans Saints: WR Bryce Lance, North Dakota State<\/p>\n Bryce Lance is a big bet on potential, which could pay off huge for the New Orleans Saints. The same could be said of the team’s initial draft pick, Jordyn Tyson. One way or another, the Saints want to have a big-play threat working alongside Chris Olave. Lance needs to develop his game, but he’s been more reliable throughout his career than Tyson, despite Tyson’s injury history.\u00a0<\/p>\n Scouting Report Highlights<\/p>\n Strengths: Elite athlete, instant vertical threat, huge catch radius, outstanding body control<\/p>\n Weaknesses: Thin frame, needs to develop his route-running, not as flexible in the lower body to snap off breaking routes<\/p>\n Complete scouting report<\/a> via Dame Parson of B\/R NFL Scouting Dept.<\/p>\n 137. Dallas Cowboys: DL LT Overton, Alabama<\/p>\n Fit was vital for LT Overton. The Dallas Cowboys are an excellent fit since they’re switching to a 3-4 base front. He won’t be asked to be a pure edge. Instead, he can work as a base end\/interior option and feel right at home.<\/p>\n Overton is one of the class’s best examples of a highly-regarded prospect entering the season only to disappoint and see a significant dip in his draft stock.<\/p>\n The former 5-star recruit<\/a> originally joined the Texas A&M program, where the coaching staff and wanted him to lean out and be a more traditional edge-defender. That setup didn’t work out well.
