Damian Parson· Mar 25, 2026

Parson projected several mid-round defensive and receiver prospects: Cincinnati linebacker Jake Golde could sneak into the late first round, Georgia DT Christian Miller goes on day two (round two to three), Iowa State DT Dominique Orange in the third round, and Georgia State WR Ted Hurst in rounds two or three.

“I think this is a guy that I wouldn't be shocked to hear his name come off the board late first round.”
