Summary

Non-quarterbacks such as offensive tackle D’Von Gray, running back Will Lacy, and defensive back Daxton Robinson are also highlighted as top prospects. Several of these players have the potential to be first-round picks, with pro comparisons including Dion Dawkins, TreVeyon Henderson, and Trent McDuffie. Offensive linemen, defensive ends, and wide receivers are among the top non-QB prospects, with some already being compared to current NFL stars.
