The Patriots selected Miller in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 245th overall.

Miller spent his entire four-year college career at Alabama, taking over a regular role on offense in 2024, resulting in 15 starts over the last two seasons. He possesses the size to handle the rigors of an NFL campaign at 5-foot-10, 209 pounds and does a good job with ball security (two fumbles in his college career) and falling forward on runs. On top of that, he put up an impressive 4.42 40-time at the NFL Combine. That said, he doesn't typically play as fast as his time and can struggle in pass blocking, hence his seventh-round selection. Miller will be tasked with etching out a role somewhere on the depth chart behind the two players locked in atop the running back room in Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson.

The Broncos selected Scott in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 246th overall.

Scott (6-foot, 203 pounds) will have his work cut out for him to compete for a depth role in Denver's secondary, but he boasts the size, ball skills (as a former wide receiver) and experience to find a role if he can make the most of his developmental opportunities. The 24-year-old started the final three seasons of his five-year career at Illinois. Expect Scott to kick off his rookie year competing with JL Skinner (shoulder), Devon Key and Tycen Anderson for depth reps at safety.

The Eagles selected Wisniewski in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 244th overall.

Wisniewski probably is not a serious starting safety candidate at the NFL level, but at 6-foot-3, 219 pounds the Texas Tech product has the build to crash hard against the run from the strong safety position. His 2025 season with the Red Raiders was his sixth collegiate season after playing the prior five years at North Dakota State, mostly as a backup. The Eagles will probably be content if Wisniewski can simply play on special teams.

The Seahawks selected Eastern in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 242nd overall.

Eastern was a full-time starter at defensive tackle in each of his last three seasons at Minnesota. He was named an All-Big Ten Honorable Mention in 2025 after posting 38 total tackles, including 2.5 sacks, one forced fumble and one pass defense across 13 games. Eastern has an intimidating 6-foot-5, 315-pound frame that makes him an intriguing development project for the Seahawks, who will certainly work with the 23-year-old on his technique and instinct to try and develop him into an NFL-caliber defensive lineman.

The Texans selected Fisher in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 243rd overall.

The Texans took a linebacker for the second time on Day 3, as they previously selected Wade Woodaz out of Clemson in the fourth round. Fisher piled up 215 tackles, 16.0 tackles for loss and 6.0 sacks over his final two seasons at Indiana, earning All-American honors in both seasons during the process. He's undersized (6-foot-1, 232 pounds) but has solid range as a run stopper and in coverage. Fisher should be a versatile option for the Texans defense, and he should at least be a special-teams contributor as a rookie.

The Bills selected Doman in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 239th overall.

Being a punter for the Josh Allen Bills is probably one of the cushier jobs on earth, as Buffalo rarely needs to punt and will often times go out of its way for the fourth-down conversion. With that said, Buffalo could still stand to improve on incumbent punter Mitch Wishnowsky, whose average of 45.3 yards per punt ranked 28th among qualifying 2025 punters. Doman was not a great punter himself at Florida (44.0 yards per punt in 2025), but the bar is low with Wishnowsky.

The Jaguars selected Hughes in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 240th overall.

Hughes finished out his college career at Middle Tennessee with his best showing in 2025, racking up 75 tackles (26 solo) and dropping his missed tackle rate to a career-best 6.5 percent, compared to a 13.4 percent the year prior. Hughes reportedly posted a 4.40 40-yard dash time at his pro day, which is important for an undersized linebacker at 6-foot, 228 pounds. He'll also likely be asked to help out on special teams to warrant his spot on the 53-man roster.

The Bills selected Reed-Adams in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 241st overall.

Reed-Adams (6-foot-6, 314 pounds) spent the first three seasons of his collegiate career handling a depth role for Kansas before starting 12 games in 2023 (nine at left guard, three at right tackle). He then transferred to Texas A&M and served as the team's starting right guard from 2024-25. Reed-Adams will turn 25 years old during his rookie year and boasts the experience to make an impact early in his NFL career, so he could press Austin Corbett and/or Nick Broeker for reserve opportunities behind starting guards Alec Anderson and O'Cyrus Torrence.

The Colts selected McGowan in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 237th overall.

McGowan had a tumultuous college career, which saw him dismissed from Oklahoma's program after being arrested in April of 2021. He didn't see the field again until 2024 with New Mexico State and ended his college career with Kentucky in 2025, when he turned 165 carries into 725 yards and 12 touchdowns along with 19 catches for 126 yards over 11 games. McGowan has good size with a 6-foot, 223-pound frame, and he has the flexibility and strength to move around defenders, though he's not as explosive as other backfield prospects. There will be questions around his character heading into his NFL rookie season, but he'll have the opportunity to prove himself in Indianapolis, where he'll compete against DJ Giddens and Ulysses Bentley for rotational snaps behind lead back Jonathan Taylor.

The Dolphins selected Llewellyn in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 238th overall.

Llewellyn didn't start at Iowa until his fifth season, but he made up for lost time by stacking up 26 tackles, 9.5 tackles for loss, 6.5 sacks and six pass breakups through 13 games. His limited experience is concerning for a player who will be 24 years old to start the season, and he still has work to do as a run defender. Llewellyn projects as a depth player on Miami's edge.
