🏈WEEK 5 SCHEDULE🏈
Two good games on Friday night with PITT @ VT at 7, then PSU @ NW at 8. Excited to see if QB Aidan Chiles can build off his outstanding 2H last week
BAMA @ MSST - Battle between Heisman candidate QBs in Keelon Russell and Kamario Taylor. Both draft eligible in 2028, but they might be the most exciting QBs to watch in college right now.
OSU @ IOWA - Big test for Iowa's OL prospects (Lauck, Pieper, Jones) against Ohio St. Must-win game in a tough road environment for Sayin, Smith, and the OSU offense.
FLA @ MIZZ - RB Jadan Baugh looks to build his case for Heisman (and a top 15 pick). Mizzou QB Austin Simmons has a chance to jump into mix for top QB in the class with another strong performance.
MIA @ CLEM - First real test for Darian Mensah. Malachi Toney/Cooper Barkate vs. Ashton Hampton/Elliot Washington is going to be FUN
UK @ SCAR - LaNorris Sellers is running out of chances... is Shane Beamer running out of chances too?
MD @ NEB - We're on Code Red #LocksWatch
BAY @ AZST - Sneaky fun game for you late night sickos. Keep an eye on AZST WR Reed Harris.
@SparkScouting Austin Simmons is one I'll be watching this weekend. Huge opportunity for him to jump into the consensus Top 50 with another big performance
NFL will value Penn State LB Tony Rojas
🔹Best coverage LB I’ve watched
🔹No hesitation in pursuit; hauls ass
🔹6 INT in 30 games; (6-2, 236)
Can be a Top 5 LB in this Draft class
Notre Dame has a really impressive pass rush duo.
Boubacar Traore entered the season in my top-50 and has played like a 1st round pick so far in 2026.
But Bryce Young on the other side has been just as impactful. 6-6, 260 pounds and the son of 14-year NFL DL Bryant Young.
UPDATE:
We are now over 200 total player profiles on the #DraftSignal website‼️
Still working on uploading game tape and player evaluations, but check out our Draft Board to see where we currently have prospects ranked by round!

@All_22_NFL_Cuts
UCLA QB Nico Iamaleava vs Maryland QB Malik Washington is good 2028 NFL Draft geeking today
Nico (6-5, 215) is super athletic and has a cannon of an arm. Kid can run.
Malik (6-5, 227) is completing nearly 72% & 0 INT this year. Been a pro since day one as a true freshman
The 2027 NFL Draft Defensive Tackle matchup is reason enough to watch #4 Ole Miss vs #21 Florida
Will Echoles is comfortable consensus DT1. On the other end, probably the biggest riser in Emmanuel Oyebadejo
#RunTheBaugh
Florida RB Jadan Baugh now has 458 yards (2nd in nation) and 8 Rushing TDs (tied 1st)
Ranks 1st out of all P4 RBs in Missed Tackles Forced, and 3rd in Yards After Contact
Ole Miss DL Will Echoles was an absolute force on Saturday night. Very disruptive against the pass, recording 7 total pressures. Great hand usage and pure strength on bull rushes. Doesn't turn 21 until next August.
Miami (FL) QB Darian Mensah's stats after tonight's win @ Wake Forest:
3 GP
71 for 79 (89.9%)
873 yards
11 TD - 0 INT
Continues his scorching hot start to the season. Taking what's given to him. Not making mistakes. Accurate throws. He's been fantastic.
