With the college all-star games behind us and the NFL Scouting Combine less than two weeks away, The Athletic's NFL Draft expert Dane Brugler has updated his Top 100 rankings for this year's class. He skillfully returns his eyes to the football and shows outstanding competitiveness when the ball is in the air. Jordan Addison (USC) is Bruglers WR1 and is one of four wideouts in the 20-26 range. He will be a top tester at this years combine. A freaky athlete for his size, Quentin Johnston has a unique combination of speed, strength and tracking skills. The NFL Draft order rises to the top when looking at OL. The unsung hero of a TCU squad that advanced to the national championship, Steve Avila is a wide-bodied blocker and pulls rushers into his tractor beam with his ability to engulf at the point of attack. Andrew Thomas and Ekwonu is a start. Charles C. Its one realistic scenario among many realistic scenarios. I am surprised to see CB come in ahead of QB in difficulty. Information on Bleacher Nation may contain errors or inaccuracies, though we try to avoid them. He has first-round traits, but not a first-round impact on the game. That could translate to a fourth-round . 8), Spencer Rattler (No. The analysts averaged a grade of 77.8% in ranking RBs.

Kraft is going to make an NFL team very happy on Day 2 of the draft. View Big Board. But for those coveting field-stretching speed, tracking skills and reliable hands, the Tennessee product will have value in the top 25. Which of. One scout called him similar to Michael Pittman. My appreciation for Pierce grew more and more throughout my time studying him. There are mixed feelings on Jalin Hyatt throughout the league because of his limited route tree in college and Tennessees offensive scheme. In other words, if the Bears can draft either, thatll be a win in my book. Dom G. Nothing about Ross is guaranteed until the medical part of the combine. Matt A. I cant speak for everyone, but for me, none of the 2022 quarterbacks would have been ranked higher than the five quarterbacks drafted in the top 15 in the 2021 class. To read Bruglers full Top 300, and to get the full analysis of Notre Dame players click HERE. 2020 Draft Picks (Orange): The first grouping represents the first five picks in the 2020 draft.

Richardson has the lowest floor, but maybe the highest ceiling. There is a real chance well get three going within the first 10 picks. Iowa has some keepers this year. More seriously though, I gathered this data because there is no true assessment for NFL Draft analysts. An impressive size/speed athlete, Luke Musgrave runs like a gazelle. One Former Player Believes Patrick Kane Would Play In Toronto, The San Diego Padres Have Turned Themselves Into Revenue-Sharing Payors, who has been on our radar for a hot minute, Ballard sounded ready to risk it all for a quarterback, Irsay showed a public display of affection, Will Anderson Jr. is Giving Off Khalil Mack Vibes and Im Very Into It, Dont Worry, Jeff Joniak and Tom Thayer Arent Going Anywhere, Ugh! Johnson needs to show better control at the top of the rush, but his issues are fixable and scouts speak highly of his football character. Thibodeaux is a confident guy, which can also be perceived (or misconstrued) as arrogance at times. 23 or the Dolphins at No. I think the deck is stacked against him, physically, and while I like his game, he's not so incredibly impressive in any area that his outlier size doesn't matter. Gibbs might not have ideal size or run power, but his pass-catching skills will make him an exciting NFL weapon. Honestly, I thought his Senior Bowl week confirmed what we already knew about him more so than gave him some big jump. The Cubs lefty was dinged with a pitch clock violation in the second inning of Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Brewers. Links to content and the quotation of material from other news sources are not the responsibility of Bleacher Nation. I think he can be a WR2 at [] He wont wilt against pressure and has the competitive makeup that will endear him to NFL coaches. In some ways, Ringo is similar to his former teammate Tyson Campbell, who fell out of the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft due to inconsistent technique and awareness. With the tenacity of a junkyard dog, Devon Witherspoon has read-and-drive quickness to blow up plays in front of him.

Its also time to reset where things stand in how we eval & project. Where would this years QBs have ranked if compared to last year? It sure doesnt seem to be the case with Brugler, who calls Skoronski a technician and master of the details who has a high ceiling if he ends up at guard. What he writes about his game is accurate, but he seems to have focused more on the negatives about Okwaras game and has ignored the elite traits that had Brugler placing him in the first round a year ago. Kelee Ringo has a knack for making big plays in big games. Just Bryce Young doing Bryce Young things. Though he might not have ideal physical traits (which will hurt him on draft weekend), Haener has the field vision and natural accuracy to consistently throw receivers open. But hes a below-average run defender right now. It's going to be interesting to see if he gets back to that form he once had. 2022 NFL Draft Top 100 rankings live updates: Dane Brugler Q&A on quarterbacks, top picks, trades and more - The Athletic Introductory Offer Access all of The Athletic. But he is a tweener and struggles to consistently win with his hands. I think Levis is super toolsy and seems like he'd be ideal, but he has some serious fundamental issues. For each position, sample size varied depending on how many players at each position are regularly on the field. He often appears aimless in his rush plan with erratic hands and too many almost plays on his tape he is an exceptional athlete with a projectable body, projecting as a high risk, high reward pass rusher.. Hes pretty raw in that area. Ethan W. I really like Robinson. With his quickness and body control, he can dip/rip through the shoulder of blockers and also flashes the physical hands to drive through roadblocks as a bull rusher. He wanted to prove himself against SEC competition, though, and that is exactly what he did with an impressive 2022 season. I have been saying for months thst this is an average QB class. A former five-star recruit, Darnell Wright was considered a draft pick at this time last year. Ikem Ekwonu and David Ojabo are my picks for the Giants. Anthony Richardson and 14 more of the most intriguing early-entry NFL Draft prospects. Seems to play with power and grip strength. Brendan L. In the first round, Washington CB Trent McDuffie is really skilled in off-man and zone. https://t.co/0kId8CpZ7V, Diante Lee (@DianteLeeFB) January 12, 2023. Back-to-back sacks for Will McDonald IV! He analyzes hundreds of dudes - even ones that aren't going to be drafted. NFL scouts have submitted their grades on this years pool of eligible prospects, and now begins the cross-checking. For an offense searching for a true Y tight end who can play inline as a blocker and win over the middle of the field as a pass catcher, Michael Mayer will be attractive in this range. And that doesnt include other intriguing pass rushers who could all go in the first four rounds like Virginia Techs Amare Barno, Oklahomas Nik Bonitto, Ohio States Tyreke Smith, Kentuckys Josh Paschal or Texas A&Ms Michael Clemons. I highly suggest anybody with interest to read reports from every one of them. But hes undersized, hes quicker than fast (probably runs in the 4.48-4.52 range), and had more drops than touchdown catches in his career. If the Bears have eyes for one of these prospects, theyll likely need to trade to get back into the first round. Christian Watson at 96 feels low following the Senior Bowl and his athletic profile. He is undersized, and scouts have concerns about his ability to defeat press and win on the outside in the NFL, but Addison is a loose athlete who can work all three levels of the field. Brugler talks about how Pride struggles in off man coverage but thrives in man coverage. That, however, is why coaches make the money they make. Based on the average grades for the entire group of analysts, QB is the second most difficult position to rank. This year is the opposite, it makes sense for every team in the top 10 to trade back because of the lack of high-end talent. Ohio State star C.J. His lack of size will be more pronounced versus NFL blockers, but Kancey has the disruptive qualities that will translate to the pro game. Also my personal opinion, I wouldn't take Bryce Young at the top of the first round. To calculate a grade for how well each analyst capitalized on the talent available, I divide the AV of the Analysts top five prospects by the AV of the five most productive players from that class. Howell 41. 15 overall for me. Based on the average grades for the entire group of analysts, QB is the second most difficult position to rank. 6 to secure him? With improved discipline, he can be a game-wrecker when he properly uses his long levers. From Matt Corral at quarterback to Derek Stingley Jr. at cornerback, these are the top prospects as college football's bowl season looms. Oklahomas Anton Harrison (63rd), Syracuses Matthew Bergeron (65th), Oklahomas Wanya Morris (69th), Chattanoogas McClendon Curtis (81st), Marylands Jaelyn Duncan (84th), and Utahs Braeden Daniels (95th) could be Day 2 targets. Does it make sense for the NY Giants to trade down if they find a buyer? Dropped a lot of passes on film, and thats tough to shake. While that is unfair to Calijah Kancey, there are some similarities in Kanceys quickness off the ball and explosive hands to play in gaps. Im guessing hell need to start out at guard to try and mask some of his issues. Trusted sources think Musgrave could run 4.4 at Combine. pic.twitter.com/qa3xtXm3WA, Jim Nagy (@JimNagy_SB) February 11, 2023.

Bell should be drafted somewhere in the 35-75 range. 31 could have their eyes on Michigan State's Kenneth Walker. Bell is a quality pass catcher. He played the game of his life against Georgia in the playoffs, showing improved comfort as an improviser. Anything can happen, but the gap between his current form and what he needs to become to succeed in the NFL is too wide. And, no, Van Ness wasnt a starter for the Hawkeyes this past season, but he did play starter-level snaps and led the team in tackles for loss (11). Bryce Young is really good and seems like a guy who would succeed in the NFL, but there's his size, and personally there are a couple things about the way he plays that I'm not super thrilled with. Do you think Lloyd has those same capabilities? With the Kansas City Chiefs hoisting the Lombardi Trophy, the NFL offseason is officially here. Another guy The Consensus Big Board was probably too low on: Hercules Van Ness from Iowa. Vitamin deficiency. Will it happen? The 2022 NFL Draft will be held April 28-30 in Las Vegas.

But why is a team going to give up assets to move up? His combine numbers will be interesting. While he makes splash plays, Ringo also gives them up because of his struggles to anticipate, which will be a tough skill to improve against NFL-level receivers. Will he ever become the sum of his freaky parts? But the big issue with him is the lack of length. The analysts averaged a grade of 74.3% in ranking TEs. Young probably won't be available.

With his size and strength, Tippman fires through his hips and does a nice job on the move, even if he does sacrifice his balance too often. A passionate leader and competitor, Gilman displays above average read/react skills with the play anticipation that gives him a head start. I like him as an NFL backup who can push for starting reps as he continues to develop. Meanwhile, Daniel Jeremiah is a star in the industry and could likely be at the top of these lists next year. With 4.5 speed and an 80-inch wingspan, Dorian Williams is a rangy player against the run and the pass. Okwara screams off the edge with the speed that makes quarterbacks uncomfortable, using that same athleticism to drop and make plays away from the line of scrimmage. Despite lining up over or outside the tackle in college, Karl Brooks projects best inside, where he has the tools to be a trouble-making three-technique.
