34. NFL Team Logo for Titans Tennessee Titans: Gabe Jacas, DE, Illinois

To open 2025, Jacas has four sacks, two forced fumbles, one pass batted, and 16 tackles. Jacas (6-3, 275) played well for the Fighting Illini in 2024, providing an impact at the point of attack. In the ground game, Jacas has functional strength to hold his ground and get in on runs outside of his gap.

36. NFL Team Logo for Dolphins Miami Dolphins: Amare Ferrell, CB, Indiana

The Dolphins could use more talent at cornerback.

Ferrell has 14 tackles with three interceptions and three passes defended thus far in 2025. In 2024, Ferrell was a tough defender for the Hoosiers. He had 49 tackles with four interceptions and one pass batted. The 6-foot-2, 200-pounder has good size to go along with ball skills.

In 2025, Wilson has eight tackles and 3.5 sacks thus far. Wilson was a rotational backup at Georgia in 2024, totaling 22 tackles with three sacks and two forced fumbles. He transferred to Missouri after the season, and Wilson has been impressive with the Tigers. The 6-foot-4, 250-pound Wilson has qualiy size with speed off the edge.

39. NFL Team Logo for Panthers Carolina Panthers: Kyle Louis, OLB, Pittsburgh

Carolina could use some young talent at linebacker.

In 2025, Louis has 25 tackles with two sacks and an interception. In 2024, Louis was a breakout star and one of the best linebackers in the nation as a sophomore. Louis was all over the field for the Panthers and made some clutch plays for his team. Louis was tremendous with 97 tackles, 15 tackles for a loss, seven sacks, one forced fumble, four interceptions, and seven passes broken up. In pass coverage, Louis really stands out as a future contributor for the NFL. He is very smooth dropping in coverage and covers a lot of ground in zone. For the NFL, Louis (6-0, 225) is undersized, so he will need to work on taking on blocks, stacking, shedding, and getting on tackles. Given his size, that could be a persistent issue for him.

40. NFL Team Logo for Giants New York Giants: Sonny Styles, LB, Ohio State

The Giants could use some linebacker youth.

In 2025, Styles has 20 tackles and a forced fumble. Styles (6-4, 230) has a lot of talent and started to play up to his potential during the 2024 season. He finished with 100 tackles, six sacks, one forced fumble, and five passes broken up. In 2023, he recorded 53 tackles, two sacks, and one pass batted, plus he has been very good in pass coverage.

41. NFL Team Logo for Texans Houston Texans: Ola Ioane, G, Penn State

Houston could use some offensive line youth.

The 6-foot-4, 334-pound Ioane is a strong blocker at the point of attack with the ability to generate movement in the ground game. He is also a reliable pass protector. Ioane is explosive, can mirror speed rushers, and plays with physicality with a nasty streak. Ioane looks like a guard for the NFL and probably does not have the length to kick outside to tackle.

42. NFL Team Logo for Browns Cleveland Browns: Xavier Chaplin, OT, Auburn

Cleveland could use more offensive line youth.

With Virginia Tech, Chaplin (6-7, 338) was one of the top left tackles in the ACC in 2024. He improved as a blocker after a solid debut season as a starter in 2023 for the Hokies. Chaplin has excellent size with impressive movement skills for such a big blocker. He has the potential to be a top-50 pick next April with a strong season in the SEC. Chaplin has blocked well overall in 2025. He had a decent outing against Oklahoma, but gave up a coverage sack to R. Mason Thomas that was the fault of Jackson Arnold. Chaplin had a few false starts as well.

43. NFL Team Logo for Cowboys Dallas Cowboys: Matayo Uiagalelei, DE, Oregon

The Cowboys could use multiple young edge rushers.

Uiagalelei flashed big-time ability for the Ducks in 2024, recording 10.5 sacks with two forced fumbles, one interception, one pass batted, and 38 tackles. The 6-foot-5, 270-pounder has good size, strength, and athleticism. Team sources feel that Uiagalelei looks awesome in flashes but lacks consistency in 2024.

44. NFL Team Logo for Broncos Denver Broncos: Aaron Anderson, WR, LSU

Denver adds more young receiving talent for Bo Nix.

In 2025, Anderson has 23 receptions for 305 yards. In the opener against Clemson, Anderson caught six passes for 99 yards. He has explosive speed, but is very undersized. Anderson (5-8, 187) is an extremely fast receiver who is a threat to score anytime he touches the ball. In 2024, Anderson had 61 receptions for 875 yards and five touchdowns. Anderson has a lot of upside to develop.

45. NFL Team Logo for Falcons Atlanta Falcons: Carnell Tate, WR, Ohio State

The Falcons could use more receiver depth to go with Drake London and Darnell Mooney.

With teammates like Marvin Harrison Jr., Emeka Egbuka, and Jeremiah Smith, Tate has gone under the radar, but he is a talented receiver in his own right. The 6-foot-3, 195-pounder has good size, runs well enough, and has flashed big-play ability while never being the No. 1 featured receiver. Thus far in 2025, Tate has 15 receptions for 252 yards with three touchdowns. In 2024, Tate had 50 receptions for 698 yards and four touchdowns. Tate flashed as a freshman in 2023, catching 18 passes for 264 yards and a touchdown. Tate has athletic upside and untapped potential.


46. NFL Team Logo for Bears Chicago Bears: Will Heldt, DE, Clemson

The Bears could use more defensive talent and competition across from Montez Sweat.

Thus far in 2025, Heldt has 16 tackles with three sacks and has played well for Clemson. Heldt played well for Purdue in 2024, recording 56 tackles with five sacks. He has good size and upside to be a potential riser.

47. NFL Team Logo for Texans Houston Texans: Jaishawn Barham, LB, Michigan

Houston could use some young talent at linebacker.

In 2023, he had 37 tackles with three sacks, an interception, and one pass batted.

48. NFL Team Logo for Cardinals Arizona Cardinals: R. Mason Thomas, DE/OLB, Oklahoma

Arizona grabs more pass rushing talent.

Thomas is a fast edge rusher with serious speed off the edge. He shows some variety in moves and some functional strength to fight off blocks. In 2025, Thomas has seven tackles with two sacks and a pass batted. In 2024, he totaled nine sacks with one forced fumble, one pass batted, and 23 tackles. The 6-foot-2, 249-pounder is undersized to be a defensive end in the NFL, so we will have to be an outside linebacker that moves to rush off the edge in the sub package.

49. NFL Team Logo for Vikings Minnesota Vikings: Keon Sabb, S, Alabama

In 2025, Ramsey has seven tackles and a pass defended. Ramsey played well for the Trojans in 2024, totaling 60 tackles with an interception, five passes defended, and two forced fumbles. With his speed and athleticism, Ramsey could fit as a free safety prospect for the NFL. Some team contacts are very high on Ramsey and his coverage skills.

51. NFL Team Logo for Chiefs Kansas City Chiefs: Chris Bell, WR, Louisville

The Chiefs need multiple receiving upgrades for Pat Mahomes.

To open 2025, Bell has 23 catches for 332 yards and two touchdowns. Bell (6-2, 220) was a solid receiver for the Cardinals in 2024, catching 43 passes for 737 yards and four touchdowns.

53. NFL Team Logo for Packers Green Bay Packers: Jaylon Guilbeau, CB, Texas

Green Bay moved on from Jaire Alexander and could use more young talent at corner.

Gulbeau demonstrated impressive coverage skills in 2024, consistently blanketing receivers to prevent them from getting open. In 2024, he had 58 tackles with three passes broken up. The 6-foot, 190-pounder has good size and upside to be better in 2025.

54. NFL Team Logo for Seahawks Seattle Seahawks: T.J. Parker, DE, Clemson

The Seahawks grab some edge rush youth.

In 2025, Parker had 13 tackles with two sacks and a pass broken up. Parker has had a breakout sophomore season for the Tigers, recording 57 tackles, 11 sacks, and six forced fumbles in 2024. The 6-foot-3, 265-pound Parker has solid size and quality instincts. In his freshman season, Parker posted 5.5 sacks and 33 tackles.

55. NFL Team Logo for Rams Los Angeles Rams: Fernando Carmona, OT, Arkansas

The Rams could use more blocking talent and competition to protect Matthew Stafford.

Carmona (6-5, 322) played well for Arkansas in 2024 showing ability as a run blocker and pass protector at left tackle. He is a solid player that looks like a safe pick to be a solid and tough NFL starter. Carmona played left tackle at San Jose State in 2023 and 2022.

In 2024, Singleton ran well for the Nittany Lions, averaging 6.4 yards per carry for 1,099 yards with 12 touchdowns.

57. NFL Team Logo for Colts Indianapolis Colts: Anthony Hill Jr., LB, Texas
