Every year at this time, it is normal to hear that the NFL draft prospects are compared with past and present stars. These compositions are useful because they can give a sensation (for better or worse) how players are projected to the next level, and we have an idea of a player’s game style.
We ask 14 analysts and drafts experts: Aaron Shatz, Adam Rittenberg, Ben Sok, Bill Connelly, Dan Orlovsky, Field Yates, Jeff Legwold, Jordan Reid, Matt Bowen, Matt Miller, Mel Kiper Jr., Mike Tannenbaum, Steve Much and Turon Dandport, to join the discussion Prospection Fourpessener. His comps were made based on the style of play, physical measurements, production and versatility, or some combination of all those features.
So, who reminds us of North Carolina Omarion Hampton? Who are good matches for Defensores Estrella such as Mason Graham by Michigan and Shavon Revel Jr. De East Carolina?
Let’s enter our favorite Prospect To-Pro compositions for this year’s draft class.
Broaders with larger frames are usually types of “Earth and Libra”, but Skattebo (5 feet 10, 219 pounds) led all prospects in the yardas position per game in 2024 in the state of Arizona (46.5). That makes it similar to Kamara, another resistant setback (5 feet 10, 215 pounds) that stands out as a runner and receiver. Kamara led all NFL runners in game reception yards (38.8) last season. – Aaron Shatz, NFL analyst
Egbuka was eclipsed by Marvin Harrison Jr. and Jeremiah Smith in the state of Ohio, but still eclipsed 1,000 reception yards in 2022 and 2024, the only two complete seasons he played. It has a similar construction (6-1, 202 pounds) to St. Brown (6-0, 202 pounds), who played the second violin to Michael Pittman Jr. at the USC before becoming a resource start number 1 with the lions. – Adam Rittenberg, University Soccer Reporter
KUPP is a high comparison for any open receiver, but Bech is surprisingly similar to KUPP. Bech (TCU) is difficult as nails and catches everything in the middle of the field. It becomes a fast corridor immediately after capture. Kupp and Bech stood out in agility tests, such as the transport of three cones and short, as receptors of more than 200 pounds, highlighting their unique combination of large direction of direction. – Ben Sok, NFL analyst
I have seen many of Debo Samuel Mr. For Burden, and it is understandable that both are dangerous near and far from the scrimmage line, and both are strong corridors. But Missouri deployed a load similar to how Tampa Bay has Godwin in the last two seasons, with a good dose of screens and hooks/hooks outside the slot to provide opportunities for courtyards after capture. With 6-0, 206 pounds, the load is greatly built as Godwin (6-1, 209 pounds) too. It is a muscular corridor with good hands. A race similar to Godwin rather than justify a selection of day 1 or day 2. – Bill Connelly, University Soccer Reporter
Is it allowed to calculate a prospect for two players? I am bending the rules because Warren is a mixture of Witten and Gates. It is a great praise, but Warren is an incredibly reliable closed wing, catching 104 passes for 1,233 yards and eight touchdowns in Penn State last season. He also launched a TD pass and ran for four more scores. Warren shows creativity and variety on its routes, which is rare for a player of its size of 6-6. That’s why I see a mixture of Witten and Gates here. – Dan Orlovsky, NFL analyst

Penn State Te Tyler Warren can play everything
Check out the best of Penn State Te Tyler Warren while taking the field in six positions.
Like Thuney who left NC State in 2016, Zabel is a decorated player who finished his university career in the left Tackle. Zabel was measured in 6-6, 312 pounds with 32-inch arms in the combination (Thuney was 6-5, 304 pounds with 32 arms of 1/4 inch). Many believe it is the most appropriate to play on guard at the NFL level, like Thuney. The Northern Dakota State Tackle provides a rare versatility and impressive pass protection skills that suggest that it will have a long and successful career in the NFL, again, like Thuney. – Field Yates, NFL draft analyst
It is not the strange thing about how similar these two are, both in the type of body and in the game in the field. Bonitto measured 6-3 1/8 inches, 248 pounds with a wingspan of 78 7/8 inches in the harvester in 2022. Green measured 6-3 1/8 inches, 251 pounds with a wingspan of 77 5/8 inches in this year’s combination. And Green, as Bonitto, will probably have much more impact as a situational corridor at the beginning of his career. Green, a former open receptor of preparation who transferred from Virginia to Marshall and had 17 captures last season, has all the features to be a shocking corridor of the NFL. – Jeff Legwold, Broncos reporter
The Graham of 6-3 and 306 pounds is not far from Wilkins, which is 6-3, 315 pounds. With strong hands at the point of attack, both are block builders that can throw offensive linens on the first level. They can also constantly disturbing disturbing passes and playing multiple points in advance. Graham’s explosive power and the reliability he showed against the career in Michigan could help him become a centerpiece of a defense at the next level. – Jordan Reid, NFL draft analyst
With a long frame of 6-3, 195 pounds and a 40-yard board of 4.30 seconds, Porter has the physical profile to play the field of presentation and patterns. It combines similar to Woolen, who ran a 40 of 4.26 seconds in combination 2022 and is measured in 6-4, 205 pounds. Woolen has 11 interceptions in three NFL seasons, while Porter had three selections in the Iowa state in 2024. Porter has the features of the area to find the ball at the next level. – Matt Bowen, NFL analyst
Wilson left the state of Ohio as an expert en route with a better speed than expected and big hands. Golden is similar, leaving Texas after an impressive second half of the season as the open team’s open receiver. With 5-11, 191 pounds with a race of 4.29 40 yards, Golden and Wilson (6-0, 183 pounds) have a size and set of similar skills. And we should wait a similar rookie season from Golden if he lands with a competent field marshal. – Matt Miller, NFL draft analyst
London uses its 4-inch frame and elite jumping capacity to make difficult 50-50 captures, and that was a large part of its evaluation when it left the USC in 2022. McMillan has many of those same features. The Arizona receiver, which also has 6 feet 4 inches, exceeds the smallest corners at the capture point with its great body control, safe hands and the ability to point to the ball. And like London (No. 8 in general), McMillan should be a first round selection at the end of the month.
An additional compensation, returning to the first draft that I covered: the Mariscal de Campo de Colorado, Shedeur Sanders, reminds me a little of Joe Montana. He has great precision, mobility in his pocket, hardness and consistency in his game, just as Montana did it in Notre Dame. Now, I am not saying that Sanders is going to be a member of the Hall of Fame, this is based on his style of play at the university. The big difference in the draft? Montana was a third round selection in 1979, while Sanders will leave the board much earlier. – Mel Kiper Jr., NFL draft analyst
I love Revel’s skills set and the way you use its 6-2, 194 pounds to hold wide receptors. Like Cromartie, Revel suffered a torn acl at the university. And I think Revel will still have a long and productive career as chromartie. When it is healthy, Revel can be dominant; He had 55 cups, six interceptions and a sack for eastern Carolina in 2023. – Mike Tannenbaum, NFL analyst

Shavon Revel chooses the state of the Apalaches
Shavon Revel chooses the state of the Apalaches
Hampton (6-0, 221 pounds) and Mixon (6-1, 220 pounds) are larger runners that run well. Mixon made an unofficial career of 4.43 40 yards on his professional day in 2017, and Hampton had a 4.46 40 in the harvester. Both the cups and show the ability to withdraw when they obtain a fold in the tape, but it is the dangerous that are after the capture what makes this my competed for this class. Mixon averaged 13 yards after capture in his last season in Oklahoma, while Hampton averaged 11.5 last season in North Carolina. – Steve Muench, NFL Draft Analyst
Both corners are fanatical and skilled players who love to get under the skin of the receptors, and both went to Louisville. Riley (5-11, 194 pounds) and Alexander (5-10, 196 pounds) also have similar measurements. Alexander is a bit more sudden in their movements, but both have ball instincts and skills above the average. – Turron Davenport, Titans reporter
