DL: 2026 Draft Class

Im taking Howell of my board if i am a GM unless its a 3rd rounder the tape doesnt justify the measurables like for Bain

He would have the shortest arms for an EDGE ever since 1999 according to mockdraftable

Hmmm, color me very interested in Jaishawn Barham.

They lined him up off ball, and at edge. Hes raw. But hes got some definite pop in his hands, sideline-to-sideline range, length, bend..could be a versatile piece.

Bumping since it got buried in combine measurements. Anyone else watch him?

I like him alot, but more SAM linebacker than defensive lineman. He's well built, can fly, and deliver the boom. High motor and plays violent. You dont want to see him coming downhill at you. Really agile player with decent arm length and big, heavy, hands. He's rangy and gets to spots he shouldnt be in a good way and even just getting a paw on the ball carrier is going to be impactful. I dont see a whole lot of pass rush moves. Its more open space on a blitz with him closing ground or showing bend around the edge. Not sure hes going to play with his hand in the ground. But has an 3-4 OLB he can be tenacious. Hopefully develops the cover skills and he could be something special in a 4-3 as well.

A foot injury for a 330lb man is not nothing either. Both players were raw as s**t. His pad level and hand usage is pretty terrible overall. Someone will take him before 27 anyway.

So many parallels

Florida IDL Caleb Banks' measurements are absolutely astounding! 6062, 327, 10 7/8" hand, 35" arm, 85 3/4" wing span. Never reached full potential. His tape is uneven. His pads rise far too much. He had the injury this season and there's some maturing that needs to happen. But…

Stupid high floor if it all comes together. Big if

If Rueben Bain starts sliding because of his arm length and is within realistic trade up distance, I'm doing it if I'm the 49ers.

💯 but everyone knew he was gonna have baby arms. Top 15 guy in this draft.

Today's measurements are a reminder why people should still be excited about a Mykel. The guy a rare specimen compared to all of these dudes.

I was a fan of his before the combine I think he is worth a top 50 pick might end up being the best pass rushing DT this draft

Malachi Lawrence
