The 2026 football season is kicking off this month, but before this year's on-field action starts, let's take a look at the top prospects in the 2027 NFL Draft class.
This group should be loaded with high-profile talent at premium positions, from a quarterback class headlined by Texas' Arch Manning and Oregon's Dante Moore, to a stacked list of edge defenders like Texas' Colin Simmons and South Carolina's Dylan Stewart, to elite talents like Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith and Notre Dame cornerback Leonard Moore.
As is the case every year, there are sure to be underrated prospects who emerge as the year goes on, and some of the top underclassmen could still choose to return to the college ranks for the 2027 season.
All that considered, here's how we stack every position group looking ahead to next year's NFL Draft:
Quarterback
Running Back
Wide Receiver
Tight End
Offensive Tackle
Interior Offensive Line
Edge Defender
