  • 2027 NFL Draft Big Board: Updated Top 50 Prospect Rankings

    The updated 2027 NFL Draft Big Board is led by Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, Texas edge rusher Colin Simmons, and Notre Dame cornerback Leonard Moore. Football Scout 365 ranks the top 50 prospects with scouting analysis focused on winning traits, NFL role projections, and the development areas that will shape their draft stock. 2027 NFL Draft Big Board: Top 50 Prospects 1. Jeremiah Smith, WR, Ohio State Height: 6-3 | Weight: 223 pounds Smith leads our board with the size, speed, and ball skills to become a true NFL No. 1 receiver. He projects as a boundary X who stretches coverage vertically, finishes through contact, and separates underneath. More consistent releases against press, blocking effort, and focus on routine plays are the remaining checkpoints in an otherwise complete receiving profile. 2. Colin Simmons, EDGE, Texas Height: 6-3 | Weight: 240 pounds Simmons wins with an explosive first step, exceptional bend, and the closing burst to turn pressure into strip sacks. His best fit is as a wide-aligned edge rusher or stand-up outside linebacker who forces tackles to account for his speed. Added functional strength, more reliable edge-setting, and a deeper counter package will determine his development into a complete three-down defender. 3. Leonard Moore, CB, Notre Dame Height: 6-2 | Weight: 195 pounds Moore combines length, route recognition, and ball skills to project as a starting outside corner with turnover value. He fits best in zone-match or multiple coverage schemes that allow him to read routes and use his length at the catch point. His press technique, recovery speed, and tackling consistency remain the key areas to evaluate against top receivers. 4. Trevor Goosby, OT, Texas Height: 6-7 | Weight: 312 pounds Goosby offers the length, foot quickness, and pass-protection range NFL teams look for at left tackle. He fits a wide-zone or play-action offense that uses his movement skills to protect the edge and reach second-level defenders. Improving his anchor against power, balance through contact, and run-blocking displacement will determine how far he advances beyond a starting-caliber projection. 5. Jordan Seaton, OT, LSU Height: 6-5 | Weight: 325 pounds Seaton’s value starts with his pass protection, where length, quick feet, and controlled mirroring help him handle edge speed. His movement skills and technical control support a starting NFL left tackle projection. The next step is closing the gap between his pass protection and run blocking through stronger displacement, sustained contact, and more consistent power. 6. Will Echoles, IDL, Ole Miss Height: 6-3 | Weight: 310 pounds Echoles is a run-first interior defender who wins with heavy hands, natural leverage, and control at the point of attack. He projects as a 1-technique or shade nose who occupies gaps, sheds blocks, and pushes the pocket in multiple fronts. More consistent tackling, refined pass-rush technique, and sustained leverage against double teams are his primary development areas. 7. Charlie Becker, WR, Indiana Height: 6-4 | Weight: 204 pounds Becker’s size, catch radius, and vertical tracking make him a difficult matchup on the boundary. He projects as an outside X receiver in a play-action or vertical passing offense, with value on back-shoulder throws, contested catches, and red-zone targets. Sharper releases against press, a broader route tree, and routine-play consistency will determine whether he develops into a primary target. 8. Cam Coleman, WR, Texas Height: 6-3 | Weight: 201 pounds Coleman brings vertical speed, ball-tracking ability, and the catch radius to threaten defenses downfield and in the red zone. His best NFL role is as a boundary X who stacks coverage and wins contested opportunities. More polished press releases, sharper short-area routes, and fewer focus drops are needed to turn his physical upside into consistent No. 1 receiver production. 9. Ashton Hampton, CB, Clemson Height: 6-2 | Weight: 200 pounds Hampton combines size, fluid movement, and run-support toughness in a starting outside corner profile. He can match bigger perimeter receivers and fits press-bail, Cover 3, or quarters structures that use his length and coverage versatility. More consistent route recognition, press technique, and transitions against sharp separators will determine whether his coverage execution catches up to his physical tools. 10. Jadan Baugh, RB, Florida Height: 6-1 | Weight: 231 pounds Baugh leads our running back rankings with power, contact balance, and light feet for a 230-plus-pound frame. He projects as a feature back in gap, duo, or inside-zone concepts, with the receiving ability to stay involved on passing downs. Reducing hesitation at the line and creating more separation once he reaches the open field are his next development priorities. 11. Dylan Stewart, EDGE, South Carolina Height: 6-5 | Weight: 245 pounds Stewart’s explosive first step, bend, and closing burst give him primary pass-rusher upside in an attacking front, with strength and run-game consistency still developing. 12. Chris Cole, LB, Georgia Height: 6-3 | Weight: 235 pounds Cole projects as a coverage WILL whose pursuit range and open-field tackling provide value against backs and tight ends, with run processing still developing. 13. Ellis Robinson IV, CB, Georgia Height: 6-0 | Weight: 180 pounds Robinson’s length, anticipation, and ball skills fit an outside corner role in press-match or zone-match coverage, with added strength needed against physical receivers. 14. Yhonzae Pierre, EDGE, Alabama Height: 6-3 | Weight: 251 pounds Pierre projects as a SAM/EDGE hybrid who converts speed to power and finishes in the backfield, with his counter package and edge-setting still developing. 15. KJ Bolden, S, Georgia Height: 6-0 | Weight: 185 pounds Bolden combines coverage range, reliable tackling, and nickel versatility in an early NFL starter profile, with more ball production the next development target. 16. David Stone, IDL, Oklahoma Height: 6-3 | Weight: 315 pounds Stone’s first-step quickness, length, and play strength fit an attacking 3-technique role, with improved counters and finishing needed to turn pocket disruption into sacks. 17. Darian Mensah, QB, Miami Height: 6-3 | Weight: 205 pounds Mensah’s ball placement, intermediate accuracy, and pocket movement fit a West Coast or pro-spread offense, with pressure management and outside-number velocity the key checkpoints. 18. Trevor Lauck, OT, Iowa Height: 6-5 | Weight: 310 pounds Lauck offers controlled pass protection, strong hands, and gap/power blocking value, with guard flexibility if his range against NFL edge speed limits his tackle projection. 19. Trinidad Chambliss, QB, Ole Miss Height: 6-0 | Weight: 200 pounds Chambliss brings mobility, rhythm accuracy, and off-script playmaking to a spread or play-action offense, with size, boundary velocity, and full-field processing the primary projection questions. 20. Jamari Johnson, TE, Oregon Height: 6-5 | Weight: 257 pounds Johnson combines seam-stretching ability, reliable hands, yards after the catch, and blocking value in a versatile TE1 profile, with route detail still developing. 21. CJ Carr, QB, Notre Dame Height: 6-3 | Weight: 210 pounds Carr wins with timing, intermediate accuracy, and efficient decisions, with enough pocket mobility to reset and extend plays as he develops greater consistency under pressure. 22. Drew Mestemaker, QB, Oklahoma State Height: 6-3 | Weight: 210 pounds Mestemaker’s timing, RPO processing, and intermediate accuracy fit a spread offense, with his low release point and boundary throws facing a tougher test against Power 4 defenses. 23. Arch Manning, QB, Texas Height: 6-4 | Weight: 220 pounds Manning’s arm talent, size, and creation ability fit a play-action or RPO offense, with accuracy, footwork, and progression speed determining how much of his upside translates. 24. KJ Duff, WR, Rutgers Height: 6-6 | Weight: 225 pounds Duff projects as a possession X who wins with catch radius, ball tracking, and red-zone size, with sharper releases and route detail needed against NFL press coverage. 25. Dante Moore, QB, Oregon Height: 6-3 | Weight: 206 pounds Moore’s layered accuracy, touch, and intermediate timing fit a pro-spread or play-action offense, with deep boundary velocity and mechanics under pressure the key development areas. 26. Brauntae Johnson, S, Notre Dame Height: 6-0 | Weight: 200 pounds Johnson’s route recognition, ball skills, and controlled tackling fit a split-field safety role, with transition quickness and coverage discipline the primary development areas. 27. Justin Scott, IDL, Miami Height: 6-4 | Weight: 303 pounds Scott brings first-step burst, length, and power to an attacking 3-technique role, with more consistent hand usage and balance needed to sustain interior disruption. 28. Nick Marsh, WR, Indiana Height: 6-3 | Weight: 203 pounds Marsh combines vertical speed, catch radius, and physical yards after the catch in a boundary X profile, with receiving consistency and route-tree expansion the next priorities. 29. Deuce Alexander, WR, Ole Miss Height: 6-0 | Weight: 180 pounds Alexander’s downfield speed and body control fit a vertical Z role with slot flexibility, with added strength and sharper routes needed against tighter coverage. 30. Kade Pieper, IOL, Iowa Height: 6-3 | Weight: 298 pounds Pieper’s lateral movement, balance, and blocking in space fit a zone guard role, with consistent get-off and sustained contact needed against longer interior pass rushers. 31. Carter Smith, OT, Indiana Height: 6-5 | Weight: 313 pounds Smith’s anchor, heavy hands, and run-game displacement fit a gap/power offense, with his length and lateral range determining whether he stays at tackle or moves inside. 32. Kelley Jones, CB, Mississippi State Height: 6-4 | Weight: 195 pounds Jones uses exceptional length, press disruption, and ball skills to challenge boundary receivers, with transition quickness against smaller, sudden separators the key projection question. 33. Ryan Coleman-Williams, WR, Alabama Height: 6-0 | Weight: 178 pounds Coleman-Williams brings vertical speed, quick releases, and yards after the catch to a motion-heavy Z role, with hands and play strength needing greater consistency. 34. Kingston Lopa, S, California Height: 6-5 | Weight: 210 pounds Lopa’s length, ball skills, and coverage range fit a split-field safety or big-nickel role, with more reliable tackling and transitions needed to complete his projection. 35. Greg Johnson, IOL, Minnesota Height: 6-6 | Weight: 325 pounds Johnson’s displacement, anchor strength, and finishing fit a gap or inside-zone guard role, with pad level, strike placement, and balance the primary development areas. 36.

John Henry Daley, EDGE, Michigan Height: 6-4 | Weight: 250 pounds Daley’s hand usage, motor, and bend fit a strong-side defensive end role with stand-up flexibility, with run-game anchor and assignment discipline the key checkpoints. 40. Boubacar Traore, EDGE, Notre Dame Height: 6-4 | Weight: 247 pounds Traore’s first-step burst, length, and bend fit a wide-aligned weak-side rush role, with added play strength and more consistent hand timing needed for three-down value. 41.

  • Ellis Robinson IV

    ← Back to NFL Draft Big Board Ellis Robinson IV Georgia HT: 6000 WT: 180 YR: RSO POS: CB OVR RK 11 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL CB3 Near Elite KEY STRENGTHS Ball Skills Route Recognition Length KEY CONCERNS Functional Strength Press Physicality Run Support PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT Ellis Robinson IV is a long, instinctive boundary corner whose grade is built on ball skills, route recognition, length, and coverage versatility. He fits best in a press-match or zone-match structure where he can use his eyes, wingspan, and anticipation to challenge throws from the perimeter. The concern is functional strength, especially when bigger receivers test him through contact or when he has to defeat blocks in the run game. The CB1 pathway is realistic, but his 2026 tape must confirm improved press physicality, recovery consistency, and full-season reliability. PLAYER COMPARISON: Jaycee Horn Ellis Robinson IV fits the Jaycee Horn archetype as a long, competitive boundary corner with press-man tools, ball production, route recognition, and the confidence to challenge throws outside the numbers. Like Horn, his best NFL role is built around length, competitive coverage, and catch-point disruption. CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS Near Elite (70-74) A high-caliber prospect who is expected to become a significant contributor by Year 2. These players have outstanding physical tools and strong football IQ, with only minor flaws in their game. They demonstrate consistency at a high level and project as future Pro Bowl-caliber players if properly developed. Primary scout: Brandon Lundberg Football Scout 365 NFL Draft Grade Scale Football Scout 365 grades reflect a prospect’s projected long-term NFL value and role. Draft ranges are general value projections, not predictions of an exact selection. Positional value, team needs, scheme fit, medical information and athletic testing can influence where a player is ultimately selected. How Football Scout 365 Grades NFL Draft Prospects Elite (75+): A rare, high-impact prospect with elite physical tools, advanced football intelligence and the ability to make an immediate NFL impact. Elite prospects carry franchise-altering potential and typically project as top 5–10 selections in the first round. Near Elite (70–74): A high-caliber prospect with outstanding physical tools, strong football intelligence and only minor developmental limitations. Near Elite prospects project as significant early-career contributors with Pro Bowl upside and first-round draft value. High-End Starter Potential (65–69): A starting-caliber prospect with strong physical tools, quality technical skills and a defined NFL role. These players may require development before reaching their ceiling but generally carry second- or third-round draft value. Mid-Level Starter Potential (60–64): A solid prospect with NFL-level tools and a pathway to becoming a dependable starter if key limitations are addressed. These players generally carry third- to fifth-round draft value. Low-Level Starter Potential (55–59): A developmental prospect who could become a low-end starter, high-end backup or valuable specialist in the right role. These players generally carry fifth- to seventh-round draft value. Backup Level (50–54): A depth or rotational prospect with enough functional ability to compete for an NFL roster spot but limited long-term starting potential. These players generally project as late Day 3 selections or priority undrafted free agents. Not NFL Level (Below 50): A developmental or camp prospect who does not currently demonstrate enough consistency, technical refinement or functional NFL traits to project as a regular contributor. These players generally project as undrafted free agents, practice-squad candidates or camp invitations. Draft position can vary based on positional value, team needs, scheme fit, medical evaluation and athletic testing.

  • Leonard Moore

    ← Back to NFL Draft Big Board Leonard Moore Notre Dame HT: 6020 WT: 195 YR: JR POS: CB OVR RK 3 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL CB1 Elite KEY STRENGTHS Rare Ball Skills High IQ Prototype Size KEY CONCERNS Functional Strength Physicality Still Developing Run-Support PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT Leonard Moore is a long, instinctive outside corner whose grade is built on coverage production, route recognition, and high-end ball skills. He fits best as a boundary CB1 candidate in a zone-match or multiple coverage system where his length, awareness, and ability to play through the catch point can create turnover value. The starting pathway is clear because he already combines size with real coverage production, including a 91.8 PFF grade and five interceptions in 2025. The final checkpoint is whether his press-man technique, recovery speed, and tackling reliability hold up against top NFL-caliber receivers. PLAYER COMPARISON: Patrick Surtain II Moore has a Patrick Surtain II-style profile because both win with length, patience, technical coverage discipline, route recognition, and the ability to control outside matchups without playing recklessly. The comparison fits best through the high-IQ, long-framed technician lens, but Surtain entered the NFL with a denser frame, cleaner play strength, and more complete press-man physicality, while Moore still needs to add functional mass and prove he can maintain that same control against stronger NFL receivers. CEILING GRADE ANALYSIS Elite (75+) A rare, high-impact prospect with the potential to be an instant NFL star. These players possess elite physical tools, high-level athleticism, and exceptional football intelligence. Their game is polished, showing minimal weaknesses, and they can dominate at their position from day one. They routinely accomplish what seems impossible and are viewed as franchise-altering talents.

He has the frame to match bigger perimeter receivers, the fluidity to survive in man coverage, and enough zone awareness to fit press-bail, Cover 3, and quarters-heavy structures. The concern is whether his route recognition, press technique, and transition quickness become consistent enough against NFL-level separators. His starting pathway is clear, but the 2026 tape needs to confirm he is more than a traits-driven outside corner with developmental upside. PLAYER COMPARISON: Benjamin St-Juste Hampton fits the Benjamin St-Juste archetype as a long zone-match boundary corner with the size, reach, and ball production to contest vertical throws and close windows from outside alignment. Like St-Juste, his best NFL role is built around length, route vision, press-bail technique, and matchup usage against bigger perimeter receivers.
