Donaldson (6’2”/230) burst on the scene as a true freshman at West Virginia, rushing for 87-526-6 in seven games before a leg injury ended his season. Donaldson was recruited as a three-star tight end before moving to RB during training camp and quickly cemented himself as the starter for the Mountaineers. He rushed for 421-2,058-30 in three seasons before transferring to Ohio State last season. With the Buckeyes, Donaldson managed just 96 carries in 13 games, rushing for 361 yards and 10 scores while averaging a paltry 3.8 YPC. Despite his prowess as a former tight end, Donaldson has never been much of a factor in the passing game, catching just 47 passes for 286 yards in four seasons. Despite his size, Donaldson struggled mightily after contact, posting a 2.99 yards after contact per attempt for his career, and averaging 2.92 YCO/ATT or less in each of his final three seasons. He totaled just 24 carries of 15 or more yards in his career, and may not have much to offer outside of a short-yardage/goal-line role. His larger body of work leaves much to be desired. He’ll need a strong camp if he hopes to stick on the end of a roster. The Saints also signed DT Keeshawn Silver.

The Patriots drafted Jennings via a third-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft. This will be his first time playing for a new team. He is best suited to a rotational role, but can defend against the run as well as rush the passer. Last season, he totaled 15 quarterback pressures, two sacks and 13 tackles.

Hall, 22, is a big, physical cornerback, standing 6’1/189. He showcased high-end agility at the NFL Scouting Combine and Iowa’s Pro Day, highlighted by a 6.75-second three-cone drill at the latter event. He missed 11 games due to injury over the past three seasons, but earned third-team All-Big Ten Honors in 2025. PFF credits him with nine pass breakups last year, tying for fifth among P4 cornerbacks. He also notably totaled 41 solo tackles and two TFLs. The Athletic’s Dane Brugler believes “NFL coaches will love how important run support is to him.”

After three seasons with Kentucky, Brown (5’11"/177) concluded his college career with LSU. He tallied 32 carries throughout four seasons in addition to 175 career receptions and 65 career kick returns. Both Kentucky and LSU’s utilization of him showed Brown’s speed as an open space ball-carrier. Though he ran a speedy 4.40 40-yard dash at the combine, a relatively slow 1.62 10-yard split shows he is more a deep sprinter than a between-the-sticks route runner. Brown’s ability to slash downfield will be more prevalent than his route tree at the NFL level. With kick return experience under his belt, Brown can crack a roster through special teams while competing for a depth receiver spot.

Styles Jr. (6’0"/194) is a traits-driven projection after converting from wide receiver, pairing a near-perfect 9.99 RAS with rare verified speed (4.27s, 100th percentile) and explosiveness that immediately pops in transition reps and recovery situations. Over 334 career coverage snaps, he allowed 31 receptions on 51 targets (60.8 percentile) for 340 yards with a 66.0 coverage grade in 2025, showing incremental growth after a 48.2 mark the year prior. Styles’ 11.0 yards per reception allowed and 67-yard long reception underscore the current gap in route recognition and deep-phase tracking. He does flash improving ball skills underneath, smoother short-area transitions and special teams value, backed by 13 stops and 31 tackles despite a 15.9 percent missed tackle rate. Styles remains an upside bet as a developmental outside corner whose elite athletic ceiling will intrigue teams, but his lack of instincts and route anticipation likely caps his upside.

The Raiders get back a 2026 fifth (No. 105 overall) while dealing Wilson and a 2026 seventh (No. 219 overall). The former first-round defensive end will play the 2026 season on an expiring rookie contract after ranking fourth on the team in snaps at defensive end a season ago. Wilson has not yet lived up to the lofty expectations that made him a first-round pick in 2023, with the suddenly surging Saints happy to take on that risk for any potential untapped upside still present in his game.

The brother of former No. 2 overall pick Trey Lance, Bryce (6’3"/204) followed in his sibling’s footsteps to North Dakota State, where he spent three years as either a redshirt or a special teamer. Lance finally got his chance to start in 2024 and made the most of the opportunity by racking up 17 receiving touchdowns, a mark that unsurprisingly led all D1 receivers. Lance also added one touchdown on the ground. Though he “only” scored eight times in 2025, Lance did so while averaging 21.2 yards per catch and 3.58 yards per route run. Both of those marks ranked top-10 among all D1 wideouts (min. 50 targets). Lance is a lengthy deep-ball specialist from North Dakota State. That, of course, was always going to earn him the Christian Watson comparison. He solidified the connection at the NFL Combine with a 4.34 40-yard dash, beating Watson by two thousandths of a second. Lance also posted 98th-percentile burst measurables and a solid short-shuttle mark of 4.15 seconds. North Dakota State’s run-first offense doesn’t ask its wideouts to run every route at an elite level, meaning Lance will need more reps to hone his skills as an underneath receiver. Even if he never develops that skill set, Lance has a bright future as a big-play Z receiver in the pros.

Wright (6’5/331) is a thickly built, power-driven interior lineman with over 2,000 career snaps and a play style rooted in physicality and finishing ability. Wright brings a broad frame with 33 1/8” arms, heavy 10” hands and a stout base, consistently generating movement at the point of attack while playing with violent intent in the run game. He’s at his best in downhill gap concepts, where his upper-body strength and competitive demeanor allow him to displace defenders and control reps once he’s latched. Wright’s 2025 production showed the limitations in his profile, as he allowed 22 pressures and 5 sacks on 449 pass-blocking snaps (96.8% efficiency) with a modest 67.1 PFF pass-block grade, highlighting issues against quicker interior rushers. His limited lateral mobility and lack of high-end athleticism show up when he’s forced to mirror or operate in space, where his effectiveness drops off significantly. With guard-only experience and a clear power-scheme fit, Wright projects as a stout interior mauler whose path to a starting role hinges on masking his movement limitations and maximizing his strength at the point of attack.

Spending all four of his college seasons at Georgia, Delp (6’5/245) has limited receiving production but possesses a good build and flashes physicality. A starter for three years, Delp never surpassed 300 yards receiving during his time with the Bulldogs. Serviceable with the ball in his hands, Delp averaged 7.9 yards after catch per reception, No. 17 among tight ends last season. As a blocker, he lacks length but has the physicality and agility to block in motion. Playing through a hairline fracture in his left foot for 2025, Delp had limited testing at the NFL Combine. Still, his toolset contains enough to make him “a prime candidate to be a better pro than he was a college player,” according to the Athletic’s Dane Brugler. An NFL team may take a chance on Delp to reach a ceiling he has yet to hit.

Miller (6’4/321) is a quick-trigger interior disruptor whose game is built on leverage, hand violence and lateral range, logging 1,076 snaps with an 84.5 overall grade and 90.2 run defense grade in 2025. Miller generated 17 hurries and 19 total pressures last season, but his pass-rush profile is more flash than finish, picking up just two career sacks despite 40 total pressures. He wins early in reps with aggressive club-rip and arm-over moves, using his quickness to cross faces and create penetration, while his ability to cover ground shows up in pursuit and gap control. Against the run, Miller is a tone-setter who can stack, shed and create knockback when he maintains pad level, though double teams can displace him when his anchor wanes. His biggest concern is consistency, as he can be late off the ball or lose cohesion in his rush plan, leading to missed opportunities once he reaches the backfield. Miller profiles as a high-floor early-down defender whose impact will vary by scheme, projecting best as a one-gap nose/three-tech hybrid in a four-man front.
