2027 NFL Draft Big Board

1.

Jeremiah Smith , WR, Ohio State. Previously: 1 Avg. 1 per 11
11/11/26: Smith has dominated against Ball State, Texas, Kent State, and Iowa. He also destroyed Illinois (12-217-4) in prolific fashion. In 2026, Smith has 69 receptions for 1,200 yards and 14 touchdowns.



08/01/26: In 2025, Smith caught 87 passes for 1,243 yards and 12 touchdowns. Smith (6-3, 215) took college football by storm as a freshman, and he dominated for the Buckeyes. In his debut season, Smith caught 76 passes for 1,315 yards and 15 touchdowns. He showed size, speed, athleticism, and natural feel in a tremendous freshman year, helping Ohio State win a National Championship. For a big receiver, Smith has a rare and special ability to use speed, athleticism, and shiftiness to uncover quickly on short and intermediate routes. He reminds this analyst of Julio Jones during his great seasons in Atlanta.

2.

Leonard Moore , CB, Notre Dame. Previously: 2 Avg. 2 per 11
11/11/26: Moore played really well against Wisconsin with five solo tackles, a pass break-up, blanket coverage, and a near interception. He missed Week 2 and was held out against Navy with an injury. In 2026, Moore has 16 tackles with five passes broken up.



08/01/26: Moore dealt with injuries but played really well in 2025. He had 31 tackles with five interceptions and seven passes defended. With Benjamin Morrison hurt, Moore was phenomenal in 2024, helping the Fighting Irish reach the National Championship. He totaled 48 tackles, two interceptions, two forced fumbles, and 11 passes broken up as a freshman. Moore (6-2, 195) has an excellent skill set with size, speed, and athleticism, and is a natural football player.

3.

Colin Simmons , DE, Texas. Previously: 3 Avg. 4.4 per 11
11/11/26: Simmons has 25 tackles, 10.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, and a fumble recovery in 2026. He suffered a high ankle sprain against Florida and was out versus Ole Miss. Simmons had a prolific game against Tennessee with five sacks, eight tackles, and a forced fumble.



08/01/26: In 2025, Simmons had 43 tackles, 12 sacks, three forced fumbles, and two passes broken up. In 2024, Simmons had an excellent debut for Texas and showed serious pass-rush ability with nine sacks. He also had three forced fumbles, 48 tackles, two passes defended, and one interception. Simmons (6-3, 245) has upside and could be even better after gaining experience.

4.

Charlie Becker , WR, Indiana. Previously: 4 Avg. 5.1 per 11
11/11/26: Becker has 50 catches for 875 yards and nine touchdowns thus far in 2026.



08/01/26: Becker flashed big-play ability with the Hoosiers in 2025 and showed an ability to stretch defenses downfield. In 2025, he had 30 catches for 614 yards with five scores. Becker illustrated some serious speed with his average of 20.5 yards per reception. To go along with speed, Becker has size and length at 6-foot-4, 204 pounds. He is reminiscent of Alec Pierce with the Colts and coming out of Cincinnati.

5.

Xavier Gilliam, DT, Tennessee. Previously: 5 Avg. 11 per 6
11/11/26: Gilliam has been superb for the Volunteers this season with 26 tackles, six sacks, two forced fumbles, and two passes batted. Gilliam (6-2, 305) is quick, athletic, and strong at the point of attack. He is a fast-rising prospect for the 2027 NFL Draft.

6.

Jadan Baugh , RB, Florida. Previously: 6 Avg. 7.1 per 11
11/11/26: Baugh dominated some weak opponents before destroying Auburn (26-162-3) and Ole Miss (29-142-3). He has averaged 5.2 yards per carry for 836 yards with 14 touchdowns. He has 10 catches for 66 yards.



08/01/26: In 2025, Baugh averaged 5.3 yards per carry for 1,170 yards with eight touchdowns. He has 33 receptions for 210 yards and two touchdowns. The 6-foot, 228-pound Baugh flashed serious running ability for the Gators in 2024 as a freshman. While other backs got more carries, Baugh showed a dangerous burst and power to get yards after contact. Baugh averaged 5.1 yards per carry for 673 yards and seven touchdowns. He had four catches for 33 yards and a score. Baugh could explode if the Gators make him their feature back.

7.

Jordan Seaton, OT, LSU. Previously: 7 Avg. 32.5 per 11
11/11/26: Seaton has played well this season. The 6-foot-5, 307-pounder has a good skill set with size, quickness, strength, and athleticism. He was impressive as the starting left tackle at Colorado for two seasons. Seaton has been consistent as a pass protector, showing the quickness to handle speed rushers and being able to contribute as a run blocker. Some team sources have Seaton as the top tackle prospect for the 2027 NFL Draft.

8.

Ellis Robinson, CB, Georgia. Previously: 8 Avg. 17.2 per 11
11/11/26: Robinson has 19 tackles with six passes defended and two interceptions.



08/01/26: In 2025, Robinson had a breakout season for the Bulldogs, playing as an effective cover corner. Robinson totaled four interceptions, seven passes broken up, and 20 tackles. Robinson (6-0, 180) could stand to fill out his frame to help him battle pro receivers.

9.

Dylan Stewart , DE, South Carolina. Previously: 9 Avg. 6.3 per 11
11/11/26: In 2026, Stewart has 12 tackles with two sacks and three forced fumbles. He had a game-clinching strip-sack in a win over Tennessee. Stewart made his debut in Week 3. Versus Alabama in Week 4, Stewart had some pressures, but also had some dumb penalties, including for throwing a punch, which caused him to be suspended for a game. Stewart missed the first two games as he was slow to recover from hip and back injuries sustained in 2025.



08/01/26: In 2025, Stewart had 33 tackles, 4.5 sacks, three forced fumbles, and two passes defended. The 6-foot-5, 245-pound Stewart was superb for the Gamecocks in 2024. As a freshman, he was an immediate impact player, totaling 6.5 sacks with three forced fumbles, one pass batted, and 23 tackles. Stewart has a lot of potential to develop.

10.

Darian Mensah , QB, Miami. Previously: 10 Avg. 14.6 per 9
11/11/26: Mensah has completed 77 percent of his passes for 2,701 yards with 28 touchdowns and two interceptions. He has two rushing touchdowns. Team sources say they project Mensah to have a starter grade and be a first-round pick. They like his accuracy and poise.

11.

Trey’Dez Green , TE, LSU. Previously: 11 Avg. 12.6 per 10
11/11/26: Green has 29 receptions for 357 yards and two touchdowns. He was injured against Ole Miss and missed a little more than a month before returning for LSU.



08/01/26: Green flashed dynamic receiving ability as a sophomore, hauling in 33 passes for 433 yards with seven touchdowns. The 6-foot-6, 238-pound Green has surprising speed and fluid athleticism for a big-bodied tight end. He could be a mismatch weapon in the NFL. As a freshman backing up Mason Taylor, Green caught four touchdowns with 101 yards on 13 catches.

12.

C.J. Carr , QB, Notre Dame. Previously: 14 Avg. 13 per 11
11/11/26: In 2026, Carr has completed 68 percent of his passes for 2,168 yards with 21 touchdowns and one interception. He has three rushing touchdowns. Carr has been surgical, showing accuracy, intelligence, vision, and superb decision-making.



08/01/26: Carr (6-3, 205) developed nicely in his first season as a starter, and by the end of the year, he was showing NFL starting ability. Carr completed 67 percent of his passes for 2,741 yards with 24 touchdowns and six interceptions. He was accurate, managed the game well, has developed field vision, and is a dangerous pocket passer with functional mobility. Carr is also known to have great leadership, character, and loves football. Some team sources have told me that they comp Carr to Brock Purdy.

13.

K.J. Duff , WR, Rutgers. Previously: 13 Avg. 10 per 11
11/11/26: Duff has dominated against UMass (9-196-3) and Boston College (8-137-2). He has 45 receptions for 774 yards with nine touchdowns. He has been missing some time with an injury.



08/01/26: In 2025, Duff had a good season with 60 receptions for 1,084 yards with seven touchdowns. Duff is a huge receiver with mismatch size, and he showed some big-play ability with an average of 18.1 yards per carry. The 6-foot-5, 225-pounder has a great skill set and immense upside.

14.

Trevor Goosby , OT, Texas. Previously: 12 Avg. 9.3 per 11
11/11/26: Goosby played well against Ohio State in Week 2 and Tennessee in Week 4. He was very good versus Florida. Goosby was having a good season. Prior to being carted off the field



08/01/26: Goosby (6-7, 325) took over as the starting left tackle for Texas in 2025 and had an impressive debut for the Longhorns. Goosby has good size, athleticism, strength, quickness, and upside to get better as he gains experience.

15.

Trinidad Chambliss , QB, Ole Miss. Previously: 15 Avg. 24.4 per 8
11/11/26: In 2026, Chambliss has completed 63 percent of his passes for 2,359 yards with 18 touchdowns, nine interceptions, and seven rushing touchdowns. He led Ole Miss to an epic win over LSU and a late win over Louisville. However, he struggled in a loss to Texas. Chambliss was superb for Ole Miss in 2025, guiding them deep into the college football playoffs, including leading a legendary win over Georgia. In 2025, Chambliss completed 66 percent of his passes for 3,937 yards with 22 touchdowns and three interceptions. The 6-foot, 200-pound Chambliss has a similar style of play to a young Russell Wilson. While he is short and undersized, Chambliss has a quality arm with excellent mobility.

16.

Tae Johnson , S, Notre Dame. Previously: 16 Avg. 16.8 per 11
11/11/26: In the season opener, Johnson got injured against Wisconsin and left the game early. He has not returned to the field, but is expected back this season.



08/01/26: Johnson (6-1, 197) had a breakout season in 2025 for the Fighting Irish. Johnson was a playmaker showing dynamic ball skills and instincts. He totaled 48 tackles with four interceptions and three passes defended. Johnson was just scratching the surface, and he could become a dynamic safety prospect. Sources say Johnson has worked really hard and is a good character presence for his team.

17.

Arch Manning , QB, Texas. Previously: 17 Avg. 12.5 per 11
11/11/26: Manning has completed 66 percent of his passes for 2,024 yards with 18 touchdowns and seven interceptions. After struggling in the first half, Manning led an epic fourth-quarter comeback for a legendary win against Ohio State. Manning gave the game away against Oklahoma with a fourth-quarter pick-six and another interception that set up the game-winning field goal. He had another game-losing turnover to Florida. Manning has been inconsistent with his field vision, decision-making, and accuracy. Even though he could go early, Manning should go back to school to develop as a player to improve before taking on the NFL.



08/01/26: In 2025, Manning completed 61 percent of his passes for 3,163 yards with 26 touchdowns and seven interceptions. He had 10 rushing touchdowns. Manning flashed his excellent skill set in relief work for Quinn Ewers in 2024. Manning has completed 68 percent of his passes for 939 yards with nine touchdowns and two interceptions. He also has two rushing touchdowns. The 6-foot-4, 225-pounder has a strong arm and is athletic with running ability for the NFL. In terms of skill set, style of play, and demeanor, Manning reminds me of Trevor Lawrence.

18.

Kelley Jones, CB, Mississippi State. Previously: 18 Avg. 19.8 per 5
11/11/26: In 2026, Jones has 33 tackles with seven passes batted. The 6-foot-3, 196-pound Jones is a big cornerback with impressive coverage skills. Jones is long, physical, and has speed. On top of coverage skills, Jones is a willing tackler and run defender. In 2025, Jones had 34 tackles with two interceptions and 11 passes broken up. He had 28 tackles as a freshman.

19.

Emmanuel Oyebadejo, DT, Florida.
11/11/26: The 6-foot-6, 300-pound Oyebadejo has shown explosion at the point of attack and an ability to rush the passer with speed, power, and athleticism. He has 17 tackles with 4.5 sacks, one forced fumble, and four passes batted. In 2025, Oyebadejo had 41 tackles with 4.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, and five passes batted with Jacksonville State. Oyebadejo is raw, as he has had limited exposure to football, but he has a ton of upside to develop with a tremendous skill set. He probably will dominate the pre-draft workouts and could be a riser through the process.

20.

Yhonzae Pierre , DE, Alabama. Previously: 20 Avg. 17 per 11
11/11/26: Pierre has 28 tackles, 4.5 sacks, two passes batted, and an interception returned 27 yards for a touchdown.



08/01/26: The 6-foot-3, 248-pound Pierre has been a tough defender for the Crimson Tide in 2025. He has been a dangerous edge rusher with speed and physicality to push through blocks. In 2025, Pierre had 52 tackles with eight sacks, three forced fumbles, and one pass batted. He is an ascending player with a ton of upside.

21.

Cam Coleman , WR, Texas. Previously: 21 Avg. 7.7 per 11
11/11/26: Thus far, Coleman has 23 catches for 409 yards and seven touchdowns. He has an excellent skill set, but has let a few potential big plays slip through his hands. Coleman has a first-round skill set, but has disappointed this season. He should go back to college next season.



08/01/26: Coleman entered the transfer portal and will play with Texas in 2026. In 2025, Coleman had 56 catches for 708 yards and five touchdowns with Auburn. While other freshman receivers got more attention, Coleman (6-3, 197) flashed tremendous ability with size, speed, and athleticism. He caught 37 passes for 598 yards and eight touchdowns in his debut. If Auburn can give Coleman more consistent quarterback play, he could explode as a sophomore or junior.

22.

Ryan Coleman-Williams , WR, Alabama. Previously: 22 Avg. 22 per 11
11/11/26: Coleman-Williams has caught 25 passes for 429 yards and four touchdowns. He has also looked good as a punt returner.

23.

11/11/26: Bolden has 31 tackles with two interceptions and three passes broken up.



08/01/26: In 2025, Bolden had 76 tackles with two interceptions and five passes broken up. In a talented secondary, Bolden (6-0, 185) was able to earn playing time as a freshman and had an excellent debut next to Malaki Starks. Bolden totaled 59 tackles with one interception, one pass broken up, one sack, and one forced fumble. After gaining some experience, Bolden could be even better. He could stand to add some weight to his frame for tackling in the NFL.

24.

Ashton Hampton , CB, Clemson. Previously: 24 Avg. 20.3 per 11
11/11/26: Hampton had an excellent game versus Miami, showing he has the speed to handle an elite explosive receiver in Malachi Toney.

Hampton is having a great season for his draft grade. He has 35 tackles, two interceptions, and 11 passes defended thus far.



08/01/26: Hampton (6-3, 204) is a big cover corner that is long and physical. In 2025, he totaled 45 tackles with eight passes broken up and an interception. He had 27 tackles with two interceptions and five breakups as a freshman. His speed and ability to run with speed receivers are a point of emphasis for his evaluation as a junior.

25.

11/11/26: Thus far in 2026, Berry has 30 tackles with four passes broken up and an interception. He has also made some excellent plays on punt coverage.
