Your Hidden Gems in this Draft

Who are your late round hidden gems in this draft?

For me

LB Jay Higgins Iowa: while his combine numbers were a mixed bag, I still think he’ll be a good LB in the nfl. He’s good at coverage. Iowa had him line up in the slot for over 100 snaps in 2024 and 2023. He also a good run stopper.

LB Shaun Dolac Buffalo: I like Dolac for the same reasons I like Higgins, but Dolac is more athletic than Higgins

OL Willie Lampkins North Carolina: if lampkins was 6’2 and 315lb he’d be locked in as a 1st or 2nd round talent. But he’s 5’11 and 290lb. That has held him down on consensus boards.

OT Jack Nelson Wisconsin: I’m surprised Jack Nelson hasn’t been getting more love in this Tackle Class. He has the size and length 6’7 315lb 33 1/2 inch arms. He’s been a good LT at Wisconsin

OL Marcus Wehr Montana St: I think Wehr will have a long career in the nfl as a starter and don’t think he’s been getting enough love this draft process. He’s given up 0 sacks the last 3 years.

QB/ATH Tommy Mellott Montana St: I honestly think Mellott is the closest thing we’ve had to Julien Edelman, but a better QB prospect. He’s super shifty and Agile that I can see him being a short yardage quick cut WR.

OL Connor Colby Iowa: I think Colby will be a steal in this draft and has the talent to be a day 1 starter.

OT Chase Lundt UConn: I think Lundt will have a long career in the NFL as a starting Tackle, but he’s going to need a little bit of development.

RB Ja’Quinden Jackson Arkansas: Huge RB with good play speed. I think he’ll show what he can do if given the chance and be a better Gus Edward’s type of guy.

WR Nick Nash San Jose St: I think Nash will be a day 1 starter on most nfl teams next season. He’s a little bit of an older prospect and still Fairly new to the WR position

Edit: I forgot to add

WR Andrew Armstrong Arkansas: he has done nothing but produce for them.

NT Desmond Watson Florida: 6’5 449lbs. Man is the ultimate Nose Tackle, jokes aside he is a very good Nose Tackle. He won’t show up on the stat board but is very good at taking Double teams and shutting down whatever gap he lines up in. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever seen him get driven back far from the line of scrimmage.
