DRAFT TRACKER 2026

Smack has a strong leg and can deliver beyond 50 yards at a high rate without having to drive balls with a lower trajectory. His repeatable process and consistent placement give him an above-average chance of making it in the league.

Zvada figures to be a challenging evaluation for special-teams coaches. His 84% make rate from 50 yards and beyond might be overshadowed by his inconsistencies with mid-range and shorter kicks. In a league where makes from mid-range to deep are now expected, consistency from inside the 40 is absolutely demanded. If Zvada finds his 2024 form and stays there, he will pick up a spot on an NFL roster.

Four-year kicker with an explosive delivery but inconsistent results. Stevens clearly has the leg to create lift and distance, but his ball striking was inconsistent at times, as he missed three of his kicks from 40-49 yards last season. He handles kickoff duties and is able to run, cover and tackle when needed. The physical tools are there to be drafted but he needs to become more consistent to stick around long-term.

Matsuzawa has gone from Tokyo steakhouse waiter to NFL draft hopeful in a relatively short period of time. He operates with a repeatable process and delivery on most kicks. However, he lacks an explosive leg and has yet to show the ability to drive kicks from the deep distances that have become standard in the league. Matsuzawa is a longshot to make an NFL roster, but his accuracy should intrigue teams.

After a strong 2024, Ferrin seemed to lose confidence from 40-49 yards in 2025, making only one of his last six kids from that distance. More concerning than the aiming were the pulls that came off his foot. Ferrin has the talent to compete in a camp but must regain the confidence he showed in 2024.
