That will all change in 2026, with the six-year seniors essentially coming to an end and the first wave of NIL players going through four years of college, the draft class is expected to be loaded with top-end talent and as deep as it's ever been.

The Eagles started the draft with a likely edge rusher and ended it with one. The 6-3, 258-pound Powell-Ryland had just four sacks in three years at Florida before breaking out in his final two seasons at Virginia Tech with 25 1/2 sacks in 25 games.

The Dallas Cowboys are receiving more praise for their work in the 2025 NFL draft with two selections named as favorites picks.
