Deep Draft Sleepers/UDFA prospects-2026 edition

[RamsinNV]

Who do you like at 207, 231, 250 and 251?

This is not a deep draft and I’m thinking this will be more difficult this year.

Sam Roush TE from Stanford. Solid blocker but not going to wow anyone. Doubt he’ll make it to 207 but if we hadn’t resigned Higbee I would have considered trading a late pick to move up a bit to get him.

De’Zhaun Stribling WR from Mississippi. Decent size, good run blocker and the deep speed you can’t coach if it isn’t there.

Jeff Caldwell WR from Cincinnati. Blew up at the combine. Size speed combo means he is doubtful to be available at 207. Can he block and why so little production on a team that put up decent offensive numbers?

Pat Coogan - Center from Indiana has been mentioned in quite a few mocks on this board. Seems to have dropped in the rankings this offseason.

Kaleb Proctor DT-undersized DT with quickness. Can shoot the gap.

Micah Morris OG-athletic guy with legit size. Plays high but seems to do well in pass protection.

Haynes King, QB, Georgia Tech
Electric athlete with true 4.5 speed. Accurate thrower on the move. I would take him late as a QB depth piece that provides a totally different element than McVay has had. Could also be used situationally like that weird guy in New Orleans.

I thought I might be the only one that was high on King. Dude can flat out play and I think he ran a 4.47 at the combine.

I would love for the Rams to pick up Micah Morris on day three.

Can’t totally disagree with his talent.The Best part of this kid is he is COACHABLE & is a WINNER!!

The Vandy QB would be a QB that you could put in on 3rd downs & short yardage situations.He’s size is his limitations,but he plays the game in the RIGHT WAY.

 

[Merlin]

Heidenreich & De Jesus. I would say Wetjen too if he's on the board late. I consider all three to be returners, though Heidenreich is projection there. But late rounders are the best returners because you're not sweating them getting killed. Figuratively speaking.

He certainly has tools, but, is green....very green.
I would take flyer late or as an UDFA....although, given his athletic ability I bet he gets drafted late.

Ya know sometimes he can be kind of a spaz, but with right coach I think he reeled in a bit. That kid is faster than some WR, But sometimes he has tunnel vision and has trouble looking off his primary receiver, which is why he likes to bolt and take off and run.

I just don't see him ready to take a regular season snap for two years.

 

[OldSchool]

Nick Barrett South Carolina
A big sloppy NT he won't wow you with his pass rush ability from the inside but he's a guy that will eat up and occupy a couple blocker and be solid in the run game. Probably around a 6th round pick.

Also go with a guy who will have to block Barrett in Matt Gulbin C Michigan St

Not my top center but since I'm not sure we'll take one when I'd like I'll go with him as a later rounder to develop. Up until 2025 he was a left guard then moved to center this last year and had some growing pains but shows potential. Will need time.

 

[Jacobarch]

My list is as follows;

Jake Slaughter - C
Micah Morris - G
Markel Bell - T
Taylen Green - QB

 

[TheTackle]

No one has picked a special teams ace in their lists! We need to find one or two gems who can help us massively improve that faze. Asking for a friend

 

[rdlkgliders]

Jeremiah Wright Auburn (so you know he is on the radar Les )

7th round OG played on the right
Huge guy
6'5 330+
32 1/8 arms

 

[rdlkgliders]

My list is as follows;

Jake Slaughter - C
Micah Morris - G
Markel Bell - T
Taylen Green - QB

Green isn't much of a sleeper and probably a 4th maybe 5th but yeah, I like him too as a project.
