The 2025 college football season has just begun, but it's never too early to break down prospects for next spring's draft class.
PFF Lead NFL Draft Analyst Trevor Sikkema offers his breakdowns for 28 edge defenders in the 2026 NFL Draft, including T.J. Parker, R Mason Thomas and Dani Dennis-Sutton.
3-4 Defensive Ends
LT Overton, Alabama
Strengths
- Well-built defensive lineman; higher weight, but not slow and distributed appropriately for all-around strength
- Powerful edge rusher who can pack a punch at contact/tackling
- Powerful hands for an effective club move
- Surprising flexibility to turn the corner at his size
- Build-up speed is terrifying
- Strong stack-and-shed ability
- Can maintain pad level when shuffling the line
Weaknesses
- Better run defender than pass rusher
- Struggles to get off blocks cleanly and consistently
- Rarely wins the outside shoulder; lacks true bend
- Needs to develop counters for when OL really get hands on him
- Hand placement could be more consistent to maximize leverage in run defense/anchoring
Scouting Summary
Overton has a thick, compact build and uses good leverage and impressive speed-to-power conversion to defend the run with high efficiency. As a pass rusher, his win percentage is high due to disruption, but he often fails to win cleanly with haste. His length is limited, but what he does best seems to lend itself to a 3-4 defensive end role with some inside-out alignment flexibility. However, he can be a contributing player in a 4-3 scheme as a power defensive end — he just might struggle to threaten the outside shoulder as a pass rusher with a lack of stride length and bend.
Dani Dennis-Sutton, Penn State
Strengths
- Built like an NFL edge defender
- Plus-size length to play 3-4 or 4-3 DE
- Powerful football player when he gets momentum
- Can showcase an explosive first step when he gives himself the green light
Weaknesses
- Loses leverage very quickly out of his stance
- Needs improved anticipation; too easily fooled by play action/RPOs
- Adequately explosive linear athlete, but not twitchy at all for CoD
- Hands are erratic in pass-rush moves
Scouting Summary
Sutton has the build of a versatile NFL defensive lineman at 6-foot-5, 265 pounds. His massive arm length gives him an advantage when executing long arm and bull rush moves with a speed-to-power pass-rush emphasis. His first step has flashes of being NFL-caliber, but he can struggle mightily when changing direction — although that has improved after trimming his weight down. He projects best as a 3-4 defensive end with some 4-3 flexibility to maximize strengths (length and size) and mitigate weaknesses (agility in space).
Zion Young, Missouri
Strengths
- Adequate linear first step for his size
- Solid ability to drop the hips and anchor
- Longer strides can cover decent ground in pursuit
- Reliable tackler; low missed tackle percentage
Weaknesses
- Slow when asked to change direction
- Below-average top speed in pursuit
- Likely lacks the burst and bend to threaten outside shoulders as 4-3 DE
- Low career pass-rush win percentage; low PFF pass-rush grade on TPR
Scouting Summary
Young is a long and strong defensive end prospect whose best spot in the league may be more inside as a 3-4 defensive end. He has good arm length with a strong upper body to stack and shed as well as finish tackles. He has a decent first step but is slow when asked to change direction and has a limited top speed in pursuit. His pass-rush win percentage and sack totals have been low throughout his career. He could benefit from adding some weight and finding a home between the tackles as a primary run defender.

Rayshaun Benny, Michigan
Strengths
- Low and loaded 3-point stance for leverage and first-step burst
- Diverse pass-rush bag despite low win percentage
- Appears to have the arm length to play as a 3-4 DE (plays there in Michigan's system)
- Had a 0% missed tackle percentage in both 2023 and 2024
Weaknesses
- Low-production player over the last four years (2.5 career sacks heading into 2025)
- Needs to play with more downhill urgency when pass rushing
Scouting Summary
Benny has been a solid rotational player in Michigan's defensive front for the last three seasons with an outlook to be a starter in 2025. At 300 pounds, he would be on the lighter side for an NFL defensive tackle, but he has good overall mass and length for work as a 3-4 defensive end; he's seen quite a bit there in the Wolverines' front. He has a good understanding of pass-rush moves and hand usage, but his game seems to lack the violence and urgency to be a backfield difference maker. He projects as a versatile depth player for an odd-front defense.
4-3 Edge Rushers
T.J. Parker, Clemson
Strengths
- Adequate size for the pro level
- First step is well-above-average; consistently launches off front foot
- Ascending pass-rush win percentage as an underclassman
- Strong player who can consistently set the edge versus the run
- Versatile in ability and experience (from 4i to stand-up 6/7-tech)
- Fluid enough of an athlete to threaten inside moves
- Love the hand usage; fast, knows it's important
Weaknesses
- Higher missed tackle percentage in 2024
- Lacks rare twitch
- Arm length appears average to his listed height
- Block deconstruction time is good but not great/elite
Scouting Summary
Parker is an exciting underclassman edge rush prospect who has the body type, athletic ability and snap count experience to line up anywhere from an interior 4i to a stand-up 6/7-tech. His first step and fluidity make him a high-potential player, as evidenced by an ascending win percentage. He doesn't have rare or elite bend and twitch, but it is plenty good enough to start and win at the NFL level.
Rueben Bain Jr., Miami (FL)
Strengths
- Strong, dense, heavy build
- Can stack and shed tight ends with ease
- Scheme-versatile; can switch from 3-point DT to 3-4 OLB at any time
- Pass-rush win percentages above 14.0% in 2023 and 2024
- Good hand speed, aim and pass-rush IQ
Weaknesses
- Arm length will be below average for edge rushers in the pros
- High missed tackle percentages as an underclassman
Scouting Summary
Bain Jr. is a strong, dense edge player with a versatile build to play as 3-4 defensive end to an 4-3 outside linebacker. He is also versatile in rushing from the left or right. His length appears to be below average for the NFL, but he avoids getting locked up against longer tackles with powerful and fast hand movements, led by a strong two-hand swipe as a go-to. He shows the baseline and skill to be a starting-caliber defensive end, preferably in a 4-3 front.

Keldric Faulk, Auburn
Strengths
- Long and strong build for the NFL level
- Lateral and linear explosiveness is adequate for the pros
- Very stout run defender as an underclassman (90th percentile run stop percentage)
- Plus short-yardage/goal-line defender
Weaknesses
- Low pass-rush win percentage as an underclassman (9.2% average in 2023/24)
- Short strides despite long build; could extend his steps to cover more ground as a rusher
- Consistently loses leverage battle when rushing from 2-point stance
Scouting Summary
Faulk brings ideal length and strength to the defensive end position. His wingspan seems to match his listed height, which would be well-above-average for the pros. He does his best work as a 4i or 5-tech defensive end, where he can start with his shoulder down in a 3-point stance. He utilizes a long arm and push-pull moves to win with strength, though his win percentage has been relatively low. He is a plus defender in short-yardage and goal-line situations.
Gabe Jacas, Illinois
Strengths
- Thick, dense, imposing frame — especially for a 2-point stance OLB
- Good all-around athleticism for a guy who is 275 pounds
- Three forced fumbles in 2024
- Devastating power when rushing with leverage
Weaknesses
- Hands are slow relative to other edge rusher for clubs, rips and chops
- Must improve his eyes and anticipation in run defense (when to shed blocks)
Scouting Summary
At 6-foot-3, 275 pounds, Jacas not only has the size, but also the wrestling background every defensive line coach loves — he was a two-time state champion in high school. He has a well-built, dense frame and is a decent all-around athlete for his size. He has mostly aligned in a 2-point stance as an outside linebacker, but his best plays often come from a 4i and 5-tech alignment, where his hand is in the dirt (good leverage and power combo). His hand speed is slower than ideal, as are his first few steps changing direction. A move from outside linebacker to defensive end is likely in his future in the pros.
Matayo Uiagalelei, Oregon
Strengths
- Big, long frame that looks like it can hold even more weight
- Arm length appears well-above-average for the position
- Impressive power, especially with momentum
- High-motor player
Weaknesses
- Upright pass-rush style
- Not a very flexible player to corner quickly
- Struggles to get his butt down to really load onto his front foot pre-snap
Scouting Summary
Uiagalelei, the younger brother to DJ Uiagalelei, brings an adequate frame to an NFL defensive end profile. At 6-foot-5, 270 pounds, he possesses long arms that he prioritizes for his go-to pass-rush plan of attack. He is a very strong player, especially with momentum, and his PFF run-defense grades should improve over time. He doesn't win with bend much, and he has some stiffness when getting low pre-snap and when changing direction. Uiagalelei possesses the skillset and body type to be an early-down, 4-3 defensive end with some extra pass-rush potential.

Tyreak Sapp, Florida
Strengths
- Looks the part of an NFL defensive lineman
- Intelligent run defender
- Has experience in odd and even fronts as a 3-point lineman
- Consistent, effective hand placement when stacking versus the run
- Takes on pullers with pride
Weaknesses
- Pass-rush plan is too much just crashing into bodies
- Appears to have below-average arm length
Scouting Summary
Sapp is a stout run defender with an NFL defensive lineman's frame. He is more than just strength, as he defends the run with good stack technique, sound eyes for the ball and solid anticipation for when to rip off a block. He takes pride in taking on pullers, and is experienced in odd and even fronts. The 2024 campaign was his best season as a pass rusher, but his wins still lacked a plan — and more just looked like crashing into bodies. He'll need more in the finesse game to garner a full-time role in the NFL.
Kenyatta Jackson Jr., Ohio State
Strengths
- Frame looks like he was built in a lab to play edge rusher
- Good burst and bend combination, especially for his size
- Natural flexibility; low pre-snap stance and maintains low pad level to start his rush
Weaknesses
- Pass-rush technique is lacking in most of his moves
- Must do a better job of staying clean; work the hands, don't let linemen's hands into his chest
Scouting Summary
Jackson is a built-in-a-lab-looking pass rusher who yet to blend the technique with the talent. He has the natural arm length, flexibility and bend to consistently win in advantageous areas. His playing time has been limited behind Ohio State's veteran defensive line the last few years — and because of this, there is a lack of refinement in his game, specifically with his hands. His aiming points, timing and ability to keep offensive linemen's hands off of him have been the root causes for limited college production and efficiency. Improved hand work could hold the key to Jackson Jr. becoming one of 2026's most impressive players.
Anto Saka, Northwestern
Strengths
- Very strong for a player who is sub-250 pounds
- Boasts 90.0-plus GAS athletic scores in 2023 and 2024
- Good first-step explosiveness linearly and laterally
Weaknesses
- Arm length appears to be short for his listed height
- Must disengage/shed better
- Struggled to produce versus legit OL
- Has yet to be a full-time starter entering 2025
Scouting Summary
Saka is one strong son of a gun for being listed below 250 pounds. As an outside linebacker edge defender, he can line up in 2- and 3-point stances with most of his production coming with his hand in the dirt. He is an athletic player with a good first step to help dictate rushing battles. His arm length appears to be shorter than his height would indicate, and it is an issue — he struggles to not let blockers get their hands inside, and once they do, he has a difficult time getting free.
He has yet to become a full-time starter at the college level, and thus far, has been challenged producing versus legit offensive linemen. There is potential, but 2025 needs to be a major breakout season.

Eric O'Neill, Rutgers
Strengths
- Can get very low and powerful onto his quads in a 3-point stance
- Good body control for lateral movements and turning the corner
- Plenty of experience from a 4i to 7 tech
- Shows a good baseline of pass rush IQ
Weaknesses
- Below-average size for the position
- Seems to have below-average athleticism
- Doesn't have imposing strength
- Lack of length and strength yield higher missed tackle percentage
Scouting Summary
O'Neill has been on a long journey to becoming an NFL prospect — he was an under-recruited player who went from FCS to James Madison to Rutgers. He'll be one of the older prospects in the 2026 class, but that experience comes with a good baseline of pass-rush IQ and both alignment versatility and comfort. He has good body control and flexibility to get low in his stance, explode off his quads and can move laterally with cross-body pass-rushing as his go-to. Overall, his length, strength and speed appear to be below average for the pros, but he can be a solid depth player in multiple schemes.
3-4 Edge Rushers
R Mason Thomas, Oklahoma
Strengths
- Smaller frame allows him to make tight turns around the corner as a speed rusher
- No false steps out of his rush; explodes off the front foot
- Can cross the face of blockers with elite quickness
- High-energy player
- Very fast hands; quick club-rip combo
- Maximizes natural leverage
Weaknesses
- Will struggle with lack of length at the NFL level
- Doesn't look like he can put on a lot more weight
- Can get handled one-on-one in the run game
- Lower career coverage grades as an OLB
- Shorter arms impact wrap-up tackling
Scouting Summary
Thomas is a designated pass rusher type of player whose measurables likely limit him to 3-4 schemes as an outside linebacker edge defender. He gets off the ball like a bat out of hell; he's high-energy, twitchy and explosive with natural leverage and very fast hands. To this point, his career has shown he won't give you much in run defense or in coverage. But in pass-rush situations, he can be an impactful player.
Joshua Josephs, Tennessee
Strengths
- Arm length appears to be a big plus
- Adequate athlete for his size
- Good effort in run defense and pass rush
Weaknesses
- Arm length is a plus, but it looks like his hands are flailing and out of control at times
- Must utilize long-arm technique more and with more strength
- Dips his head when bull rushing
- Needs more pass-rush refinement
Scouting Summary
Despite 2025 being his fourth season as a contributing player for the Vols, Josephs is still a developing player — though a good one to bet on. His arm length is a major plus and should be well above 50th percentile. However, he needs to use it more to his advantage and get stronger with it. That opens a more broad request for him to become a more technically refined and precise pass rusher. He gives good effort in run defense, which lends itself a three-down role. He needs to take that next step in his growth and development, but if he can, Josephs has the tools to be a contributor in the NFL in odd or even fronts.

Derrick Moore, Michigan
Strengths
- Hands are constantly active and working to stay clean/get free
- Smart rusher; good understanding of why leverage and attack points win
- Has the quickness to win across the face of OL
- First-step explosiveness is adequate for the NFL level
- Effective speed-to-power when he maintains leverage
Weaknesses
- Arm length seems to match the lower-percentile height
- Can have a false step out of his 2-point stance that can be cleaned up
- Shorter stride length after average burst makes it tough for him to be an up-the-arc rusher around the outside
Scouting Summary
Moore is an athletic, stand-up pass rusher who shows promise as an impact player in the league. He is conscious of leverage importance and consistently uses it, maximizing a good first step and effective speed-to-power. He seems to have below-average arm length and shorter strides for pursuit, but outside of some slight physical drawbacks, he looks like a rotational 3-4 outside linebacker.
David Bailey, Texas Tech
Strengths
- Very impressive first-step explosiveness
- Converts speed to power easily
- Has the footwork/movement skills for drop zone off-ball linebacker responsibilities
- Forced five fumbles in 2024
Weaknesses
- High pad-level rushing style
- Low PFF run-defense grades in 2023 and 2024
- Appears arm length will be a limiting factor for him in the pros
- Needs more of a pass-rush plan with more pass-rush moves
- Looks very uncomfortable in a 3-point stance
Scouting Summary
Bailey is a good all-around athlete for an on-ball linebacker. His first-step explosiveness is impressive and the root of his pass-rush efficiency. Through this, he converts speed to power with an effective bull rush as a go-to. But, he doesn't show much pass-rush diversity beyond that and must master more moves. He is fluid enough to be a spot-drop coverage player, but his PFF run-defense grades have been low. Bailey is exciting in flashes, but not a complete player yet.
Cashius Howell, Texas A&M
Strengths
- Shows competitiveness in run defense
- Will maximize his arm length in bull-rush and long-arm pass rushes
- Shows good “pop” at contact when he fires his hands up and into OL's chest
- Displays a variety of pass-rush moves with quick hands
Weaknesses
- Has a false step out of his 2-point stance that can be cleaned up
- Limited flexibility to change direction and corner
Scouting Summary
Howell is a bit undersized overall for edge rushers in the NFL, but when you limit the percentile to just outside linebackers, his size checks out. He's a competitive player in both the run and pass game, and as the 2024 season went on, he became more confident with a variety of pass-rush moves — including a nasty inside spin counter. He has a false step that can be cleaned up that can make him even faster out of his stance, but he does seem to wield limited flexibility to threaten the outside shoulder with speed. Even in his current form, he's a rotational edge option for a 3-4 front as an outside linebacker.

Boubacar Traore, Notre Dame
Strengths
- Already a savvy pass rusher, even as just an underclassman
- Bases his pass-rush plan around a strong long arm
- Twitchy movement skills
- An absolute chore to stay in front of
Weaknesses
- Bit of a high-waisted build makes it tougher to get his butt down pre-snap
- Major knee injury in 2024 caused him to miss most of the season
Scouting Summary
Traore is a twitchy and savvy young pass rusher who has a lot of potential as a 3-4 outside linebacker. He is built well enough to be versatile from a 2- to 3-point stance, but his high-cut build does make getting lower in a 3-point stance tougher. His explosiveness from standstill or when changing direction is impressive. He also already shows a high pass-rush IQ as just a true junior. His go-to move is the long arm, which he uses effectively in pass-rush and run-stopping situations. Getting back to athletic form after his knee injury will be key for a potential split in the 2026 class.
Mikail Kamara, Indiana
Strengths
- Fast, powerful hands that are constantly working to get clean
- Dense, strong frame that looks like it hurts to hit
- High-effort football player
- Lateral explosiveness from RB days are evident when crossing face
- Powerful pop for stack and shed
Weaknesses
- Lack of length makes him work to stay clean on every rep
- Short arms do cause missed tackles
- Shorter strides impact how quickly he can close for tackles/sacks
Scouting Summary
Kamara is a densely built pass rusher who comes from humble beginnings as a zero-star recruit. He worked his way to a scholarship and starting role with head coach Curt Cignetti at James Madison, eventually following him to Indiana. He is a high-effort player whose hands are always working to get clean off blocks — though his lack of length forces him to work every rep to do just that. Even as a 3-4 outside linebacker, he will be a big outlier for the position in height and length. Kamara could benefit from losing some weight and becoming a designated pass-rusher type of off-ball linebacker.
Trey Moore, Texas
Strengths
- Nimble on his feet to cross up offensive linemen
- Hips are fluid enough for spot-drop coverage
- Slippery between blockers and pullers
- Arm length appears to be adequate and effective
- Low, compact and loaded pre-snap stance with no false step
Weaknesses
- Lower height, weight profile to play on the LOS
- Quickness is better than explosiveness and top speed
Scouting Summary
Moore was very under-recruited in the 2021 high school class, but he has made up for lost time quickly. After redshirting his first year at UTSA, he became a full-time starter in 2022 and 2023, leading the FBS with 14 sacks in 2023 before transferring to Texas to start every game on the edge in 2024. He's small for an NFL edge defender, which limits him to 3-4 schemes as an outside linebacker.
At that size, he's nimble with quickness and fluid movements to slip between and under blockers or cross their face to hit a gap. His quickness is better than his explosiveness and top speed, but he's tough to stay in front of, which will always garner a chance in the NFL.

Max Llewellyn, Iowa
Strengths
- High-effort player; red-hot motor
- Strong hands pop with power at contact
- High pass-rush IQ
Weaknesses
- Did not start a game in his first four seasons at Iowa
- Consistently high pad level; pops upright out of his stance immediately
- Was smothered by Ohio State's NFL offensive line in 2024
- Must improve run-defense strength in every-down role
Scouting Summary
Llewellyn's evaluation for the NFL really begins this season, as he has yet to start a game in his four-year college career. That's not to say we don't know what he can do from rotational work, though. He has a high pass-rush IQ and knows techniques for a variety of different moves, with plans to set up moves throughout the game. He has some good pop in his hands, though needs to learn how to anchor the run better.
His biggest weakness right now comes from his pad level. He stands straight up the second the ball is snapped, neutralizing any leverage advantage of a 3-point stance. He must play with better pad level to stick around as an NFL pass rusher.
TJ Guy, Michigan
Strengths
- Good, strong stacking technique with one or two arms in run defense
- Shows good understanding of pass-rush planning with certain moves to set up others
- Nice arsenal of inside counters (spin, rip, swim)
- Ample special teams experience
Weaknesses
- Can be walked off the ball if he doesn't anchor with leverage
- Shorter stride length impacts ability to corner the outside shoulder
Scouting Summary
Guy is on the smaller side, but has some quality traits for 3-4 outside linebacker work. He loves to set up the inside move, typically a club-arm over and swim combination, after threatening the outside shoulder — that shows good understanding of pass-rush planning. He is a strong run defender when he maintains his leverage, but his lack of weight means he's moved off the ball easier if he's not sound in his technique. He has limited starting experience as a fifth-year player, but has a lot of special teams snaps under his belt.
Patrick Payton, LSU
Strengths
- Good athlete for EDGE OLB responsibilities
- Adequate bust when he's going all out for pass rush
- His 10 batted passes in 2023 were by far the most in the FBS
Weaknesses
- Slender build lacks weight in the lower half
- Gives up leverage too easily
- Needs to improve his eyes/anticipation for where the ball is
- Must better his attack speed/urgency/violence
Scouting Summary
Payton is a good all-around athlete at adequate NFL size; however, he lacks the precision for impact play. His attack speed can be somewhat hesitant and slow; his body control can be lacking; and he tends to give up leverage easily, which isn't ideal with a leaner frame. All of that to say, he is a smooth mover with a nice long-arm pass-rush base with higher potential as a 3-4 edge rusher.

Ben Bell, Virginia Tech
Strengths
- Maximizes all the explosiveness and strength he has with good technique pre- and post-snap
- Active, fast hands to stay clean
- Good eye discipline for where the ball is/is going
- Good player for fronts that like to crash and loop
Weaknesses
- Major size outlier for the position
- Short stride length heavily impacts pursuit ability
- Will lose every arm length battle in the NFL
Scouting Summary
Bell won't win the “off the bus” size intimidation contest, as his measurables will be in the lowest tier for edge rushers in the pros — but that doesn't mean he can't spend some time in the league. He maximizes the strength and explosiveness he has with good pre-snap technique, paired with active hands after the snap. He's a good player for fronts that like to use stunts and games as a looper. He'll likely need to be in a 3-4 front to move around as an inside and outside linebacker in a depth and special teams role.
Princewill Umanmielen, Ole Miss
Strengths
- Height and length are adequate for EDGE play in the pros
- Decent all-around athlete with a nice pursuit top speed
- Motor seems to run hot at all times
Weaknesses
- Very high missed tackle percentage so far in his career
- Frame remains lean; needs filling out
- Doesn't get to counters quickly enough to get to the ball before it's thrown
- Has to play stronger against the run and when converting speed to power
Scouting Summary
Umanmielen has some NFL bloodlines, with his brother Princely now in the league with the Carolina Panthers. The young brother has a similar build, though it is not filled out yet — he remains lean and lacks power. He seems to be a decent all-around athlete with NFL length, but entering his upperclassman season, he must develop more of a pass-rush plan and counters to go along with them to be drafted in the same range as his brother.
Eric Gentry, USC
Strengths
- Impressive agility and flexibility for a player with his length
- Nice first step, especially as a pass rusher
- Slippery as a pass rusher; knows to attack the shoulders instead of the middle of a lineman's chest
- Arm length makes it tough for linemen to get a grip on him
- Motor runs pretty hot
Weaknesses
- Very slender — 0th percentile weight for edge or off-ball work in the NFL
- Too easily moved against his will (even by TEs)
- Height becomes a natural negative, as most blockers can get leverage
Scouting Summary
Gentry won't be for every team — there's a chance he'd be off the boards for a handful, if not half NFL teams, due to a 0th percentile weight for linebacker play. But, those who are interested likely see the potential as an outside linebacker who can play edge defender or off-ball linebacker with good quickness and plus length. In an attacking defense, he can offer Day 3 value.

Will Heldt, Clemson
Strengths
- Massive frame, especially for a 2-point stance OLB
- Good fluidity for a player of his size
Weaknesses
- Listed weight is more about long frame than dense muscle; can be easier to move vs. the run
- Exposes his chest for OL to get inside hands on him
- Fails to maximize his length advantage consistently
- Struggles to disengage with blockers
- Low pass-rush win percentage as an underclassman
Scouting Summary
Heldt has an alluring frame at 6-foot-6, 265 pounds — though it looks like he could and should put even more weight on. Through his first two years, he has played as a stand-up outside linebacker in a 3-4 front, but he feels like someone who should gain weight for a defensive end role in a 3-4 scheme instead. He has decent fluidity at his weight, but he is moved off the ball more easily than you'd like, and he fails to maximize his gift of arm length. Both must improve at Clemson for a legit NFL projection.
