PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT
Elijah Sarratt is one of the most reliable and polished boundary receivers in the 2026 NFL Draft class. After excelling at three collegiate programs—culminating in a breakout Big Ten season—he enters the draft process with a high floor and a proven production profile. His ability to consistently win in contested situations, work open with subtle route tempo, and adjust to off-target throws makes him a quarterback-friendly X receiver. He projects best in timing-based systems such as the Erhardt-Perkins or West Coast scheme, where his route feel and body control can thrive. While his lack of top-end speed may cap his ceiling, Sarratt’s consistency and toughness give him immediate WR2/3 value in the NFL.
CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS
Mid-Level Starter Potential (60-64)
A solid, dependable starter with the potential to exceed expectations. They have good athleticism and tools but may lack elite traits. While they show flashes of high-level play, they also have some notable weaknesses that must be developed. These players often need 2-3 years to establish themselves.
