Pre-Draft Analysis
Harris appeared in 52 games for the Rebels, lining up at multiple spots across their defensive front. He displays notable flexibility for his height, flashing the ability to explode out of it with disruptive hands. When Harris builds momentum in one direction, he can be impossible to stop. At edge, he has the power to put offensive tackles on skates in one-on-one situations. He can anchor and maintain good gap integrity. Harris also has enough quickness and length to track plays down from the backside. Though he consistently draws attention up front, he would benefit from playing with more consistent aggression and refining his hand usage. But he has rare size, which will intrigue teams to maximize his full potential. -- Scouts Inc.

We may be looking for LB, although we drafted 3 EDGE's, who may convert. It strictly LB, Harold Perkins from LSU. Great for special teams, where a lot of 7th rounders end up

Perkins was highly productive early in his career, netting 146 tackles and 13 sacks in his first two seasons combined. But an ACL injury cut his 2024 campaign short, and he lacked the explosive closing burst from earlier in his career this past season. Perkins has sideline-to-sideline range as a linebacker. He reads and reacts well while staying assertive with his hands. Perkins' lack of ideal size can cause him to struggle when anchoring. He can also be an inconsistent tackler, tending to dive or surrender leaky yardage. In zone coverage, he gets good depth and can cover ground. Overall, he has strong special teams value and can outperform his projection if he regains his pre-injury explosiveness. -- Scouts Inc.

Pre-Draft Analysis
Anthony Smith started his career at NC State before finishing up at ECU, where he finished the 2025 season as the American Athletic Conference's second-leading receiver (1,053 yards). He possesses a good combination of length and athleticism, primarily serving as a vertical threat in ECU's offense. When making the catch, Smith does a good job adjusting and idling down to make receptions in stride. He gets upfield quickly and shows the ability to outrun pursuit angles. -- Scouts Inc.

ECU WR Anthony Smith posts cheetah numbers 4.32 in the 40 and 3.90 shuttle

Micheal Trigg

Nussmeier (if he is healthy), if not Sawyer Robertson

Ole Miss DT Zxavian Harris

LB Bama Deontae Lawson

RB Virginia J'Mari Taylor

OT Oregon Isaiah World

That was cool. Eli Heidenrich stuck around in the back. Sitting there in his Naval Academy uni. And then he got the call. In the 7 from THE STEALERS! Fans went wild, he sat all sorts of Naval Academy records. Roger Staubach has a grin on his face'

He had committed to a team as a UDFA. No worries!

Prayers have been answered. Finally, someone cares about Defense.

It really sounds like the NFL dug up things on Trigg they didn't like.

As for Sawyer, I think it has to be arm strength.

I don't think they go after World as he has an injury issue. The rest all make sense to me.

UDFA's

• WR Jordan Judson, SMU (Tom Pelissero)
• TE DJ Rogers, TCU (Tom Pelissero)
• DB Jaylon Guilbreau, Texas (Tom Pelissero)

Dont see Trigg or Sawyer going anywhere yet

I have more hope for Trigg than Sawyer. Sawyer is likely looking at a camp arm situation if he even wants to explore that route.

Got em

He has an opportunity to move into the #3 slot pretty quickly I would think. Fergie, Spann and him. Not sure they will keep Schoonmaker. I think Fant showed more upside, but not as much as Trigg

That guaranteed money does not bode well for Trigg

Jerry Jones on Caleb Downs' leadership: "He reminds me of Dak. He's a pied piper."

Jerry Jones open his talk with his belief the Cowboys have added 5 1st round picks on defense that weren't on the team at this time last year - Quinnen Williams, Kenny Clark, Rashan Gary, Caleb Downs and Malachi Lawrence. "Dramatically changed the bones of the defense," he said.

Confirming that the Cowboys are expected to add Tulsa RB Dominic Richardson, per source. Ran for over 1,000 yards this season. Also spent time at Oklahoma State and Baylor.

WACO — They say he has “go-go-gadget arms” for his incredible wingspan. And after seeing it in person, it makes sense.

Baylor TE Michael Trigg is Inspector Gadget — and one of the draft’s more intriguing prospects.

L.T. Overton said he went against Tyler Booker almost every day at Alabama in practice. "You know if you win a rep against Tyler Booker, you can win a rep against anybody in the country," he said.

Who won?

“It was 50-50. That's all I could say."

L.T. Overton snap counts from ESPN Research: - Has experience playing all along the DL (except at NT), has 70 snaps at 3, 4i, 5, 6, 7, & 9-techniques in his career.
