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. Zabien Brown, CB, Alabama Height: 6-0 | Weight: 194 pounds Brown brings physical press coverage and run-support value to an outside corner role, with sharper route recognition, cleaner transitions, and interception finishing the next priorities. 37. Trey’Dez Green, TE, LSU Height: 6-7 | Weight: 240 pounds Green’s size, catch radius, and vertical receiving ability create seam and red-zone mismatches as a move tight end, with blocking and route detail still developing. 38. A’Mauri Washington, IDL, Oregon Height: 6-3 | Weight: 330 pounds Washington’s power, leverage, and pocket push fit a 1-technique anchor role, with improved hand usage and counters needed to expand his impact on passing downs. 39. 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. LaNorris Sellers, QB, South Carolina Height: 6-3 | Weight: 240 pounds Sellers brings arm talent, break-sack strength, and downhill rushing power to a dual-threat role, with pocket timing and accuracy from structure the primary development areas. 42. Wyatt Young, WR, Oklahoma State Height: 6-0 | Weight: 195 pounds Young’s reliable hands, zone awareness, and physical yards after the catch fit a slot or possession role, with sharper routes and press releases the next priorities. 43. Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa, LB, Notre Dame Height: 6-1 | Weight: 220 pounds Viliamu-Asa’s run instincts, pursuit range, and pressure versatility support a three-down MIKE projection, with durability and functional strength the key checkpoints. 44.

Trinidad Chambliss displayed the accuracy, quick processing and athleticism that make his NFL projection intriguing in Ole Miss’ 32-24 victory over LSU. Watch my 2027 NFL Draft breakdown of his performance and why he deserves consideration alongside the top quarterbacks in the class. Watch: Trinidad Chambliss 2027 NFL Draft Breakdown Watch on YouTube and join the discussion What Chambliss Showed Against LSU Chambliss completed 33 of 48 passes for 363 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. He also delivered the winning 14-yard rushing touchdown. His performance in critical situations stands out in the evaluation. He completed all eight of his first-half third-down pass attempts and led a touchdown drive before halftime. With the game tied at 24 in the fourth quarter, he directed a 13-play, 75-yard touchdown drive that put Ole Miss ahead for good. The video breaks down his accuracy, quick processing and poise in those moments. How His Passing Ability Translates to the NFL The former zero-star recruit from Ferris State brings more than athleticism to the evaluation. His ability to make decisions quickly and deliver accurate throws is a major part of his NFL projection. The breakdown examines how he wins from the pocket and on the move. It also addresses the questions surrounding his size and how those concerns factor into his evaluation. Is Trinidad Chambliss QB1 in the 2027 NFL Draft? The LSU performance gives us reason to consider Chambliss alongside Arch Manning, Dante Moore and CJ Carr atop the quarterback class. Watch the full breakdown above and tell us who you would put ahead of him in the YouTube comments.

CJ Carr’s anticipation and downfield accuracy give the Notre Dame quarterback a path to the top of the 2027 NFL Draft class. Watch my breakdown of his timing, pocket movement and ball placement, including the intermediate consistency I want to see next. Watch: CJ Carr 2027 NFL Draft Breakdown Watch on YouTube and join the discussion Anticipation That Translates to the NFL Carr shows the ability to release the ball before his receiver breaks. He understands where the opening will be and trusts himself to make the throw. That matters in the NFL, where quarterbacks cannot always wait for visible separation. At 6-foot-2 and 215 pounds, he is a pro-style pocket passer with underrated athleticism to move, reset his feet and throw. The video covers his first four games of 2026, when he completed 70.5 percent of his passes for 963 yards, nine touchdowns and one interception. Downfield Accuracy and the Next Step When his feet are set, Carr’s downfield accuracy stands out. The breakdown compares his deep and intermediate placement using throws from traditional one-to-seven-step drops. Throw distance Catchable throw rate On-target rate 20-plus yards 93% 86% 10–19 yards 77% 69% These are the filtered accuracy figures discussed in the video. The intermediate range is where I want more consistency, especially when he is working between underneath defenders and the safeties. Can CJ Carr Be the First Quarterback Drafted in 2027? If Carr pairs his anticipation and deep accuracy with more consistent intermediate placement, he has a chance to move to the top of this quarterback class. Miami and potential College Football Playoff matchups would give us more opportunities to evaluate him against stronger competition. Watch the full breakdown above and share your evaluation in the YouTube comments.

Track the NFL Draft with predictive mock draft projections, big board rankings, and team needs analysis for all 32 NFL teams, powered by Football Scout 365. NFL DRAFT HUB 2027 NFL Draft Rankings, Team Needs and Mock Draft Tools The Football Scout 365 NFL Draft Hub connects prospect rankings, scouting reports, NFL team needs and mock draft projections in one interactive resource. It is designed to help users follow the complete draft process, from evaluating individual prospects to understanding how positional value, roster construction and scheme fit could influence NFL Draft outcomes. What Is the NFL Draft Hub? NFL Draft coverage is often divided across separate Big Boards, mock drafts, team-needs lists and player profiles. The 2027 NFL Draft Hub brings those resources together so users can move from an overall prospect ranking to the film, data and team context behind the projection. The Hub includes the Football Scout 365 Enhanced Big Board, prospect profiles, player grades, team-needs analysis, predictive mock draft projections, video analysis, player comparisons and scheme-fit evaluations. NFL Team Needs and Predictive Mock Draft Projections The team-needs section connects prospect evaluation with NFL roster construction. Team needs are assessed through current personnel, positional weaknesses, contract situations, roster timelines and potential scheme fits. The Predictive Mock Draft applies those needs to the available prospect pool. It helps identify logical team-player pairings while accounting for Big Board value, positional demand and roster priorities. Mock draft projections represent potential outcomes rather than exact predictions and will evolve as the NFL Draft order and team needs change. The Football Scout 365 Evaluation Process Football Scout 365 uses a film-first evaluation process supported by production, usage, efficiency, athletic testing and positional value. Prospects are graded through position-specific traits that measure functional athleticism, processing, technical execution, play strength, consistency, versatility and scheme fit. Verified measurements, NFL Combine results, pro-day testing and Relative Athletic Score are incorporated when available. Data provides context and can support or challenge what appears on film, but individual statistics or athletic testing do not replace the complete evaluation. The objective is to determine how each player wins, the NFL role he is best equipped to perform and the developmental concerns that could affect his draft stock. How to Use the 2027 NFL Draft Hub Use the Hub to compare prospects on the Enhanced Big Board, review available scouting profiles, examine NFL team needs and explore potential selections through the Predictive Mock Draft. Dynasty fantasy football players can also use prospect grades, draft capital, landing spots and projected roles to inform rookie evaluations. The 2027 NFL Draft Hub will be updated throughout the college football season and pre-draft process as additional film, production, injuries, declarations, athletic testing and NFL roster developments provide new information.

How Football Scout 365 Evaluates NFL Draft Prospects Football Scout 365 uses a film-first evaluation process supported by production data, advanced metrics and verified athletic testing. Film study establishes the foundation of each grade. Evaluations focus on functional athleticism, processing, technical execution, play strength, consistency, versatility and scheme fit. Production, usage and efficiency metrics are then used to add context and identify where the data supports or challenges what appears on tape. Combine testing, pro-day results and Relative Athletic Score are incorporated when available, but testing does not replace the film evaluation. The objective is to build an independent projection of each prospect’s NFL ceiling, likely role and developmental risk. Dynasty Fantasy Football Rankings and Rookie Analysis Football Scout 365 extends its NFL Draft scouting process into dynasty fantasy football, with a primary focus on rookie prospects, dynasty rookie rankings, Dynasty Superflex rankings, player tiers, trade values and long-term roster construction. As prospects transition from college football to the NFL, their dynasty value is evaluated through film-based scouting grades, production and efficiency, athletic testing, NFL Draft capital, team fit, depth-chart opportunity and projected role. The objective is to identify players with sustainable long-term fantasy value—not simply the rookies receiving the most immediate attention. Explore the Dynasty Fantasy Football Hub for rookie rankings, Superflex tiers, trade values, player outlooks and dynasty strategy.

2027 NFL Draft Big Ten Prospect Rankings: Jeremiah Smith Leads Top 10 Who Are the Top 2027 NFL Draft Prospects in the Big Ten? Football Scout 365 ranks Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith as the top Big Ten prospect and No. 1 overall player in the 2027 NFL Draft class. Charlie Becker, Dante Moore, Carter Smith, and Julian Sayin complete the conference’s top five entering the 2026 college football season. These rankings are based on Football Scout 365’s summer film evaluations, position-specific grades, NFL role projections and current Big Board. They are early checkpoints that will be updated as the 2026 season provides additional film and production. How Football Scout 365 Grades NFL Draft Prospects Football Scout 365 grades each prospect through film evaluation, position-specific traits, verified production, and projected NFL role. Grades reflect the player’s current NFL projection entering the 2026 season—not recruiting status, media rankings, or mock-draft consensus. Visit our How We Grade page for the complete grading scale and methodology. 1. Jeremiah Smith, WR, Ohio State Jeremiah Smith enters 2026 as Football Scout 365’s No. 1 overall 2027 NFL Draft prospect. Ohio State notes that his 2,558 receiving yards and 27 touchdowns are the most by any Big Ten receiver through his first two college seasons, supporting an Elite grade built on his WR1 physical profile, ball tracking, and three-level receiving ability. 2. Charlie Becker, WR, Indiana Charlie Becker emerged with 34 receptions for 679 yards and four touchdowns in 2025, including six catches for 126 yards against Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship Game. His Near Elite grade reflects a high-end boundary X receiver with contested-catch reliability and vertical tracking, while his next step is expanding his release package and route tree. 3. Dante Moore, QB, Oregon Dante Moore completed 71.8% of his passes for 3,565 yards, 30 touchdowns and 10 interceptions during his first season as Oregon’s starter. Football Scout 365’s QB1 has a High End Starter grade built on accuracy, touch, release quickness, and pocket poise, but his first-round pathway depends on improving his pressure decisions and outside-number velocity. 4. Carter Smith, OT, Indiana Carter Smith has made 41 consecutive starts at left tackle and won the Big Ten’s Rimington-Pace Offensive Lineman of the Year award in 2025. His grade is driven by anchor strength, efficient hand usage, and run-game displacement, with arm length and lateral range remaining the primary questions in his tackle projection. 5. Julian Sayin, QB, Ohio State Julian Sayin led the nation with a 77% completion rate while throwing for 3,610 yards and 32 touchdowns in 2025. His 67.41 grade reflects a timing-based distributor with high-end accuracy and a quick release, but he must prove his arm strength and pressure response can hold up when the initial structure breaks down. 6. A’Mauri Washington, IDL, Oregon A’Mauri Washington produced 33 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, eight pass breakups and 22 pressures in 2025 while earning an 83.8 PFF run-defense grade. His grade reflects a powerful one-technique anchor with pocket-compressing ability, although his pass-rush sequencing and finishing must improve for him to become a consistent three-down disruptor. 7. Trevor Lauck, OT, Iowa Trevor Lauck started all 13 games at left tackle and helped Iowa’s offensive line win the 2025 Joe Moore Award. His grade is built on pass-protection consistency, controlled footwork, and strong hands, while another full season should clarify whether his length and lateral range are sufficient to remain at tackle in the NFL. 8. Jamari Johnson, TE, Oregon Jamari Johnson caught 32 passes for 510 yards and three touchdowns while playing 600 offensive snaps during his first season at Oregon. His High End Starter grade and TE1 ranking are built on seam-stretching ability, reliable hands, and two-phase potential, with route detail and blocking technique serving as his primary 2026 checkpoints. 9. Jamari Sharpe, CB, Indiana Jamari Sharpe started all 16 games and sealed Indiana’s national championship with a fourth-quarter interception against Miami. He allowed only 34 receptions over more than 500 coverage snaps, supporting a High End Starter grade built on length, recovery speed, and boundary coverage ability. 10. KJ Duff, WR, Rutgers KJ Duff caught 60 passes for 1,084 yards and seven touchdowns in 2025 while leading the nation with 22 contested catches, according to Rutgers. His High End Starter grade reflects a massive possession X receiver with catch-radius and red-zone value, but improved press releases and separation consistency will determine his NFL ceiling. 2027 NFL Draft Big Ten Prospect Questions Who is the top Big Ten prospect in the 2027 NFL Draft? Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith is Football Scout 365’s No. 1 Big Ten prospect and No. 1 overall player with a 79.04 Elite grade. Who are the top Big Ten quarterbacks in the 2027 NFL Draft?
