It isn't often that true freshmen start at blue-blood programs like Clemson, but that is the road Miller has traveled on his way to the NFL, earning the nod at right tackle in all 27 games of his college career. Balanced and powerful at 6-foot-6 and 310 pounds, Miller could be Clemson's highest-drafted blocker of the Dabo Swinney era.
The cap number for Preston Smith jumps to $17.5 million in 2025, which means Green Bay might have to make a decision on him. The Packers have focused on adding young depth alongside him with Lukas Van Ness and Kingsley Enagbare, and Tuimoloau could be next. Tuimoloau likely would have been an early-Day 2 selection had he come out this year. Fierce against the run, he routinely sets a firm edge, but his consistency as a pass-rusher can still improve.
Cornerbacks Jaire Alexander and Eric Stokes have been productive when healthy, but durability has to be a concern at this point. Davis is a big (6-4, 195) ball-hawk and aggressive tackler against the run.
One of the top prizes as a high school recruit in the 2022 class, Nolen flashed his potential the past two seasons at Texas A&M. He transferred to Ole Miss this offseason and will have a chance to make his case for the first round.
Muhammad is a feisty ballhawk at cornerback who could be the right player to start opposite Jaire Alexander. He earned an 86.7 coverage grade over the last two seasons, breaking up 21 passes along the way.
Cornerback could be a future need for the Green Bay Packers, especially considering Jaire Alexander's age and injury history. Tacario Davis has incredible size (6-foot-4, 195 pounds), and he knows how to use it. His lack of long speed is the reason he falls to No. 26, but he is a fantastic player who could upgrade Green Bay's defense.
Burke was one of a handful of Buckeyes players who chose to return to school for another season rather make the leap to the NFL. Green Bay has to decide whether to exercise Eric Stokes' fifth-year option, and doing so might not be an attractive move given that the 2021 first-round cornerback played in just 12 games over the last two years.
