# Ryan Wilson: Wilson published his preseason top 50 big board for the 2027 NFL Draft class, ranking Dante Moore first, Jeremiah Smith second and Leonard Moore third, with eight quarterbacks in the top 50. He also suggested Jeremiah Smith is worthy of a top-5 pick and that Trinidad Chambliss could push into the first round. **Claimed:** Sep 3, 2026 **Pundit:** Ryan Wilson — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/ryan-wilson **Outlet:** CBS Sports — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/cbs-sports **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2027-nfl-draft-big-board-top-50-prospects-preseason-rankings/ 4 checkable claims — 3 mock draft picks and 1 top player list — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 3 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. > Dante Moore and Arch Manning enter the season at Nos. 1 and 4 on my board, and Julian Sayin has already played like a first-rounder in stretches. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Trinidad Chambliss to be picked “first-round push” (picks 1–32)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Trinidad Chambliss - Verdict: not settled yet - **Justin Scott to be picked “first-round conversation” (picks 1–32)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Justin Scott - Verdict: not settled yet - **My preseason top 50 features both bona fide difference-makers and depth to make this class really, really fun.
