OVERALL PROSPECT RANKINGS 2027 NFL DRAFT

Three of the top four prospects on our 2027 board are quarterbacks. Nothing in the seven classes we have graded looks like it, and five passers sit inside our top fifteen when no other position has more than two. This is a quarterback draft first and everything else second.

Ohio State's Jeremiah Smith is the exception holding them off, a unanimous All-American and back-to-back Big Ten Receiver of the Year. Dante Moore, Julian Sayin and Arch Manning follow, then Texas edge Colin Simmons, who won the SEC sack title.

The board thins in familiar places. Linebacker is the deepest group we have graded in seven years and the secondary is well stocked at both corner and safety, but the interior offensive line is the weakest on record - no guard or centre lands anywhere near where they normally sit.

Every one of the top five returns to school, so there is a full season left to reshape this.
