DRAFT TRACKER 2026

An NFL-caliber edge rusher with prototypical size and length, Lawrence moves with the suddenness of a smaller player. Explosive get-off and a deep bag of moves/counters fuel his pocket disruption. He can win inside or outside but his speed-to-power conversion is average. His hands are subtle but skilled to quickly unlock openings and his secondary rush. He closes with burst and has the motor to hound scrambling quarterbacks. The next level will bring better tackles and more quick-sets, which will test how well his production translates. He makes splash plays behind the line but must provide better consistency and discipline in run support. Lawrence is an ascending prospect with rush polish and pro traits that should be enticing for pressure-hungry defenses.

Hunter is a two-gapping nose tackle for odd or even fronts. He has the size, strength and length to do battle in the heart of the trenches but requires better block take-on technique to sit firmer in his grass. He won’t win in the gaps, but he can stack and shed single blocks or slide and stabilize his run fit against zone blocks. Hunter’s girth and length are advantages when aligning over the center as a run defender. He doesn’t have enough quickness or skill as a rusher to see many passing downs, but he can dent the pocket with his power. Hunter projects as an early down space-eater who can make interior offensive linemen work for their gaps.

Two-year starter with NFL-caliber measurables. Kelly needs to get stronger and play with better grit to leverage his gap and win individual block battles in run support. Improved hand usage and refined counters might bolster his chances of creating pressure, but it’s hard to envision much sack production given his lack of quickness and explosive power. Kelly will have to battle for a roster spot as an even-front end.

Free safety or zone nickelback who showed impressive instincts/ball skills on tape but tested poorly at his pro day. Dunnam displays good anticipation and recognition of play design both pre- and post-snap. He can break simultaneously with wideouts and close on intended targets before the quarterback starts his throwing motion. He lacks top-end speed and is missing size/consistency as a run defender/open-field tackler. Dunnam will need to prove himself as a functional zone defender to compete for a roster spot.
