Kent Swanson · Jan 28, 2026
Kent ranks Miami defensive end Ruben Bain as his No. 1 player in the class and Notre Dame running back Jeremiah Love No. 2, comparing Love to Bijan Robinson and saying Love won't last to the Chiefs' ninth pick. He ranks the three top receivers Mekhi Lemmon, Carnell Tate, Jordan Tyson, and pegs a group of mid-round running backs as third-round values.
“I think it's love or bust.”
