Jeremiah Smith | WR
It will be used ad nauseam, but Smith really is a “man amongst boys.”
He’s physically imposing, excels as a ball winner, and has the ability to shift gears and consistently win vertically, while being able to throttle down smoothly and work the intermediate.
Reed Harris, transfer from BC, looks to be an early-round candidate if he maintains this play.
Unique size/speed/agility combination with efficient releases and strong hands at the catch point.
QB | Alessio Milivojevic | MSU
Not a 2027 guy, but has tools and throws on tape that will keep eyes on him.
Good size and a solid arm to test windows, but needs to prove he can see the field consistently and execute under pressure.
First big test this weekend vs ND.
Jadan Baugh is a patient runner with clean eyes and the feet to weave through congested areas.
At 225, he offers rare anticipation of defenders, with the COD skills and contact balance to capitalize on his sharp instincts.
296 yards and 5 TDs on just 28 carriers so far in 2026.
WIS WR, Malachi Coleman, had an impressive week one performance vs ND.
Former top recruit in 2023, but hasn’t showed much in collegiate action.
6’5”, 205, with long strider speed and noteworthy fluidity at that size. A player to watch as the season goes on.
KJ Duff | Rutgers
3 receptions for 34 yards and a TD to cap off the first drive of the season.
Physical at the catch point with a big and long frame to convert tough targets — especially in the red zone.
An exciting prospect for 2027.
Oladejo boasted some strong reps against the run that entice as a second-year player.
He has a dense frame with good length that adds to his strong, tenacious style, allowing him to pop blockers and establish his spot, then work to violent sheds.
Good rotational upside for TEN.
Watching Michael Wilson is always extremely gratifying.
Detailed, violent, and deceptive, all packed into a 6-2, 213-pound frame.
Excited to see what he can do in Mike LaFleur’s offense.
IND transfer Nick Marsh could garner first-round attention with a good 2027 season.
Good size/speed profile to win the outside, but I was more impressed with his deceptive nuance to manipulate defenders, paired with throttle control and agility to separate consistently.
Cam Ward posted a 23.9% P2S rate in his rookie year, but I don’t doubt his composure and playmaking when stressed to extend plays.
He lacks superior athleticism, yet he has a natural feel for pressure and how to navigate it.
In Year 2, I expect his creativity to show through.
Ladd McConkey is a player poised for a big season under newly acquired OC Mike McDaniel.
His capacity to work underneath to intermediate with consistent efficiency on a diverse route tree holds immense value in this scheme when in conjunction with creative utilization.
Drake London -
Offers a unique size/speed/fluidity combination that allows him to work any level of the field, from any alignment.
Detailed as a route runner with developed nuance to work a diverse route tree, with strong hands in contested situations to add.
Still only 25.
Excited to see Matthew Golden in year two.
He demonstrated the vertical speed to stress defenses, but his violent, yet fluid movement skills, make him a consistent separator that can operate on all three levels.
Stepping into a larger role, the jump in production should follow.
Benji Blackburn from Stanford — in limited reps — looks to be a good player that could step into a larger role with the departure of Sam Roush.
6’6”, 260, with fluid movement skills and the tenacity to block inline.
Keyshaun Elliott is someone I could see panning out as a Day Three selection.
He’s a coverage liability and needs to improve his consistency at the POC, but he can find the field early as a solid athlete with the diagnostics and range to become a trusted early-down backer.
Thoughts on TEN going O-line at 4 if they value Fano or Mauigoa there?
Moore may be out by ‘27, and it offers flexibility for Latham at OT/OG. Outside of Skoronski, no one is safe long-term.
If they prioritize trench play and protection for Ward, they could lean this way.
