65. NFL Team Logo for Cardinals Arizona Cardinals: Garrett Nussmeier, QB, LSU

Arizona takes some quarterback competition.

Nussmeier completed 67 percent of his passes for 1,927 yards with 12 touchdowns and five interceptions. It was a disappointing season for Nussmeier and ended with an injury. Nussmeier (6-2, 200) spent a few seasons as the backup to Jayden Daniels, before taking over as the starter and having an impressive 2024 season. He completed 64 percent of his passes for 4,403 yards with 29 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. Nussmeier has a quality arm, is smart, and has good football character.

66. NFL Team Logo for Titans Tennessee Titans: Keyron Crawford, DE, Auburn

The Titans could use more edge rush youth.

Crawford got a late start in football, so he is raw and needs development. However, he has a good skill set with a lot of upside to develop. In 2025, Crawford had 36 tackles with five sacks, one forced fumble, and an interception. In 2024, Crawford had 22 tackles as a rotational backup for Auburn. The previous season, he had 44 tackles with 5.5 sacks and two forced fumbles with Arkansas State.

67. NFL Team Logo for Raiders Las Vegas Raiders: Caleb Tiernan, OT, Northwestern

The Raiders badly need more blocking talent for Fernando Mendoza. Here’s a competitor for right tackle.

The 6-foot-7, 325-pound Tiernan started at left tackle the past two seasons for the Wildcats after starting at right tackle as a sophomore. Tiernan is a tall, long tackle who could also move inside to guard in the NFL. He is strong at the point of attack with the ability to tie up defenders. Tiernan has the talent to start out as a backup and rise into being a starter.

68. NFL Team Logo for Eagles Philadelphia Eagles: Derrick Moore, DE, Michigan

Philadelphia grabs some defensive edge youth.

Moore was a productive edge rusher for the Wolverines in 2025, putting some good pressure on the quarterback. Moore totaled 10 sacks with 30 tackles, two forced fumbles, and three passes defended. He had four sacks in 2024 and five sacks in 2025. For the NFL, Moore (6-3, 260) is undersized, so he could be a rotational designated pass rusher to start out his career.

69. NFL Team Logo for Texans Houston Texans: Kage Casey, OT, Boise State

Houston grabs more young talent for offensive line.

Casey (6-5, 311) has been a solid left tackle for the Bronocs the past few seasons. Casey could be a swing tackle backup to start out his career, and he could also be a candidate to move inside to guard. Casey has the talent to start out as a backup that develops into being a starter.

70. NFL Team Logo for Browns Cleveland Browns: Javon Kilgore, S, South Carolina

Cleveland could use more safety talent and competition.

In 2025, Kilgore had 54 tackles with 10 passes broken up, and two interceptions. Kilgore was a ballhawk in 2024 with five interceptions, 48 tackles, and five passes defended. In 2023, he had 76 tackles with six passes broken up, one interception, and one forced fumble. Gilgore is tall and thickly built for the NFL.

71. NFL Team Logo for Commanders Washington Commanders: Antonio Williams, WR, Clemson

Washington could use more receiving weapons for Jayden Daniels.

Williams had 55 receptions for 604 yards and four touchdowns. Williams flashed playmaking ability for the Tigers in 2024 with 75 catches for 904 yards and 11 touchdowns. Williams (5-11, 190) has enough size and some natural talent as a route-runner.

72. NFL Team Logo for Bengals Cincinnati Bengals: DeMonte Capehart, DT, Clemson

The Bengals have missed D.J. Reader. Here’s a similar style nose tackle.

Capehart had 20 tackles and a sack in 2025. In 2024, Capehart had 21 tackles and two passes batted. He is a tough run defender and is very tough to move at the point of attack. Clemson had a rotation of defensive linemen in 2023, but Capehart played well enough to impress the NFL advance scouts. In 2023, Capehart totaled 15 tackles, five tackles for a loss, one sack, one forced fumble, and one pass broken up. The 6-foot-4, 320-pounder has the skill set to be a heavy nose tackle.

73. NFL Team Logo for Saints New Orleans Saints: Aaron Anderson, WR, LSU

The Saints add a speed receiver for Tyler Shough.

Anderson (5-8, 187) is a speedster receiver who is a threat to produce a chunk gain anytime he touches the ball. In 2024, Anderson had 61 receptions for 875 yards and five touchdowns. In 2025, Anderson had 33 receptions for 398 yards. He has explosive speed, but is very undersized.

74. NFL Team Logo for Chiefs Kansas City Chiefs: Sam Roush, TE, Stanford

The Chiefs add an understudy for Travis Kelce.

In 2025, Roush was a solid player for the Cardinal. He had 49 catches with 545 yards and two touchdowns. In 2024, he had 334 yards on 40 catches and two scores. The 6-foot-5, 260-pound Roush is a good player with size and is an old-school Y tight end.

75. NFL Team Logo for Dolphins Miami Dolphins: Chris Johnson, CB, San Diego State

The Dolphins need more cornerback talent.

In 2025, Johnson had 48 tackles with four interceptions, eight passes broken up, and one forced fumble. He had 65 tackles with an interception, three breakups, and three forced fumbles in 2024. Some team sources say they gave Johnson a mid-round grade. Johnson (6-0, 185) could compete to be a nickel corner and then potentially grow into being a starter in the base defense.

76. NFL Team Logo for Steelers Pittsburgh Steelers: Chris Brazzell II, WR, Tennessee

Pittsburgh could use multiple wide receiver talents for Mike McCarthy’s offense.

Brazzell played well for the Volunteers in 2025 and provided some big plays. He caught 62 catches for 1,017 yards and nine touchdowns. In 2024, Brazzell had 29 catches for 333 yards and two touchdowns. Brazzell flashed as a redshirt freshman in 2023, catching 44 passes for 711 yards and five touchdowns. Brazzell is a size mismatch problem with upside to be better as he gains experience.

77. NFL Team Logo for Buccaneers Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Jacob Rodriguez, LB, Texas Tech

The Bucs need multiple linebackers.

In 2025, Rodriguez (6-1, 230) was one of the best defensive players in college football as he had a ton of big plays for the Red Raiders’ defense. Rodriguez totaled 128 tackles with seven forced fumbles, four interceptions, one sack, and six passes broken up. Rodriguez was a fantastic college player, but he could have some skill set limitations for the NFL. However, he is an instinctive playmaker, so those instincts could lead to him overcoming deficiencies in physical talent.

78. NFL Team Logo for Colts Indianapolis Colts: Dominique Orange, DT, Iowa State

The Colts could use some interior defensive line youth.

In 2025, Orange had 18 tackles and a pass batted thus far. He is a heavy gap-plugging nose tackle at the point of attack. In 2024, Orange totaled 24 tackles with one sack and one pass batted. Orange (6-4, 325) is a big nose tackle. Team sources say that he has talent but is not a good worker.

79. NFL Team Logo for Falcons Atlanta Falcons: Domani Jackson, CB, Alabama

The Falcons need more cornerback talent to go with A.J. Terrell.

Jackson had 38 tackles and one pass broken up. Jackson (6-1, 190) has some talent, but he has not been impressive in coverage in 2025. In 2024, Jackson had 51 tackles with seven passes defended and two interceptions. Jackson did not become the star he was expected to be at USC, but he could blossom at Alabama. He had 32 tackles with three passes defended in 2023.

80. NFL Team Logo for Ravens Baltimore Ravens: Daylen Everette, CB, Georgia

The Ravens grab a potential replacement for Jaire Alexander.

Everette had 49 tackles, one interception, and eight passes broken up in 2025. In 2024, Everette had 58 tackles with two forced fumbles, three interceptions, one sack, and three passes broken up thus far. In big games, Everette had a knack for some clutch plays in pressure situations. Everette has good size, but has some limitations for covering shifty and fast receivers at the pro level.

81. NFL Team Logo for Jaguars Jacksonville Jaguars: Zane Durant, DT, Penn State

The Jaguars could use more talent in the middle of their defensive line.

In 2025, Durant had 25 tackles with four sacks and an interception. Team sources said they were disappointed that Durant didn’t build on his previous season. In 2024, Durant (6-1, 290) was an active defender at the point of attack, totaling 42 tackles with three sacks and one pass broken up. He is short and quick at the point of attack, but Durant could stand to get stronger to be more stout for the NFL.

82. NFL Team Logo for Vikings Minnesota Vikings: Drew Allar, QB, Penn State


In 2025, Allar completed 65 percent of his passes for 1,100 yards with eight touchdowns and three interceptions. He suffered a season-ending leg injury against Northwestern on October 11th. In 2024, Allar completed 67 percent of his passes for 3,327 yards with 24 touchdowns passing, six rushing scores, and eight interceptions. Allar completed 60 percent of his passes in 2023 for 2,631 yards, 25 touchdowns, and two interceptions. The 6-foot-5, 243-pounder has a powerful arm and the potential to be a pocket passer.

83. NFL Team Logo for Panthers Carolina Panthers: Malik Muhammad, CB, Texas

Carolina could use more cornerback competition and depth.

Some team sources said they had Muhammad (6-0, 188) as a day-three prospect, but many cornerbacks get drafted early because of the importance of the position. Scouts say that Muhammad would fit best in a zone scheme, and he does not fit well to be a man-cover corner in the NFL. They also think Muhammad might get paid to go back to Texas next season. In 2025, Muhammad had 30 tackles, one sack, two interceptions, and four passes broken up. In 2024, he had 36 tackles with eight passes batted.

84. NFL Team Logo for Packers Green Bay Packers: Jake Golday, LB, Cincinnati

Green Bay adds some linebacker depth and competition.

After playing three seasons at Central Arkansas, Golday had a strong season with the Bearcats in 2025. He totaled 104 tackles with 3.5 sacks, one forced fumble, and three passes defended. With versatile height and weight, Golday (6-4, 240) has good size for the NFL to be a starting Mike (middle) or Sam (strongside) linebacker. If he works out well leading up to the draft, Golday could solidify himself as a potential day-two pick and potential starter as a pro.

85. NFL Team Logo for Steelers Pittsburgh Steelers: Emmanuel Pregnon, G, Oregon

Pittsburgh could stand to add more interior offensive line talent and depth.

Pregnon (6-5, 318) played at three different schools in college while working himself into a potential day-two pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. Pregnon started out at Wyoming before playing a couple of seasons at USC, and then finishing his career at Oregon. At 6-foot-5, 318-pounds Pregnon has good size for the NFL and could compete quickly.

86. NFL Team Logo for Chargers Los Angeles Chargers: Romello Height, DE, Texas Tech

The Chargers take some edge rush youth.

In 2025, Height was a dangerous edge rusher and combined with David Bailey and Lee Hunter to help produce a lethal defensive line for the Red Raiders. Height totaled 10 sacks with 38 tackles, two forced fumbles, and a pass batted. Height (6-4, 250) showed some speed off the edge with functional strength to get off blocks. He was impressive against Oregon in the college football playoff game as well.

87. NFL Team Logo for Dolphins Miami Dolphins: Gennings Dunker, OT/G, Iowa

The Dolphins continue to build up their offensive line talent with a tackle they can kick inside to guard.

Dunker looks like a day-two pick who could develop into a starter. Moving inside to guard could be his best fit. Dunker (6-5, 315) has quality size and strength and is a nasty run blocker. Dunker has power and physicality at the point of attack. He has some stiffness and limitations with his athleticism, quickness, and agility that make him look like a better fit at guard in the NFL.

88. NFL Team Logo for Jaguars Jacksonville Jaguars: Connor Lew, C, Auburn

The Jaguars add more interior offensive line depth.

Lew (6-3, 300) broke into the starting lineup during his freshman season and was an impressive blocker for the Tigers. In 2024, Lew was even better and is a well-balanced blocker. Lew was dominating in 2025, but had his season cut short with a torn ACL. He is strong and agile as a run blocker while being very reliable in pass protection. Some sources have said Lew is similar to Creed Humphrey. Lew looks like a potential long-term starter at center or guard in the NFL.

89. NFL Team Logo for Bears Chicago Bears: Lander Barton, LB, Utah

Chicago adds some linebacker depth and competition.

In 2025, Barton had 55 tackles with 1.5 sacks and one interception. In 2024, Barton had 72 tackles with four passes broken up, two sacks, and two interceptions. Barton (6-3, 233) was on his way to an impressive 2023 season before a right foot injury ended his season after seven games. In those seven contests, he totaled 34 tackles with two interceptions, one forced fumble, and two passes broken up. In 2022, he had 46 tackles with 4.5 sacks, one forced fumble, and one pass broken up. Barton (6-5, 236) has talent and versatility to develop at the pro level.

90. NFL Team Logo for Dolphins Miami Dolphins: Oscar Delp, TE, Georgia

Darren Waller is not a long-term starter, and the Dolphins need more tight end talent.

In 2025, Delp had 20 catches for 261 yards and one touchdown. He is a talented player that did not get a lot of opportunities at Georgia. The previous season, Delp had 19 receptions for 230 yards and four touchdowns. While Brock Bowers was the star, Delp had a breakout year for the Bulldogs in 2023. During Bowers’ injury, Delp filled in well and flashed in other games with Bowers on the field. Delp totaled 24 catches for 284 yards and three touchdowns. Delp (6-5, 245) went underutilized during his time with the Bulldogs, and he has upside to be a solid NFL tight end.

91. NFL Team Logo for Bills Buffalo Bills: Sam Hecht, C, Kansas State

The Bills add some interior offensive line talent.

Heckt has been a rock-solid center for the Wildcats over the past two seasons, and he is a love/hate prospect with team sources. Listed at 6-foot-4, 300 pounds, some sources say Hecht is maxed out in his frame and has below-average power. The sources that don’t like him say he is very scheme-specific as a fit for zone blocking only. They feel he has a sawed-off body type, but he is a great kid, works hard, plays hard, and is smart. They feel that Hecht is a mid to late-rounder. The sources that like him more see him as a well-balanced blocker at the point of attack with the ability to protect the quarterback and get a push in the ground game. They think Hecht is a second or third-round pick.

92. NFL Team Logo for 49ers San Francisco 49ers: Max Klare, TE, Ohio State

The 49ers grab a backup tight end with the upside to be the replacement for George Kittle.

In 2025, Klare had 43 receptions for 448 yards and two touchdowns with the Buckeyes. Klare was a dangerous receiver for Purdue in 2024, hauling in 51 receptions for 685 yards and four touchdowns. The 6-foot-4, 240-pound Klare has quickness and athleticism to contribute as a receiving tight end in the NFL.

93. NFL Team Logo for Rams Los Angeles Rams: Tyreak Sapp, DE, Florida

Los Angeles adds some defensive line rotational talent.

In 2025, Sapp had 34 tackles and one sack. Sapp is a physical and quick defender at the point of attack. In 2024, he had seven sacks with 46 tackles and a forced fumble. At 6-foot-3, 272 pounds, Sapp has shown some versatility to rush from the inside or on the edge. Sapp could stay as an edge defender, or he could gain weight and grow into being a three-technique defensive tackle. He could be a versatile backup and rotational defender in the NFL.

94. NFL Team Logo for Broncos Denver Broncos: Amil Wagner, OT, Notre Dame

Denver adds some young offensive line talent.

Wagner (6-6, 293) had an impressive 2024 redshirt sophomore season as the starting right tackle for the Fighting Irish. He has good height and length as an edge blocker, but could stand to add some weight and strength to his frame for the NFL. Wagner has the upside to improve as he gains experience and develops physically.

95. NFL Team Logo for Patriots New England Patriots: Joe Royer, TE, Cincinnati

The Patriots could use some tight end depth and competition.

In 2025, Royer had 29 catches for 416 yards and four touchdowns. Royer had a productive 2024 season and showed next-level ability. He caught 50 passes for 522 yards and three touchdowns. Royer (6-5, 255) has the potential to be a riser if he can show blocking ability as well as being able to make plays in the passing game.

96. NFL Team Logo for Seahawks Seattle Seahawks: Logan Jones, C, Iowa

The Seahawks continue to build up their offensive line talent and depth.

In 2025, Jones was solid for Iowa. Jones started at center for Iowa in 2024 and was an effective run blocker for Kaleb Johnson. He could stand to get stronger for the NFL. In his second season as a starter, Jones was a solid starter for Iowa during the 2023 season. His run blocking is ahead of his pass protection. Jones missed the 2021 season with an injury but became a starter a year later. Jones (6-3, 290) needs to get stronger for the NFL.
