Updated 5-star recruits in the On3 Industry Ranking
Following the latest release of the 2025 On300 on Monday, the On3 Industry Ranking has updated, as have the five-star recruits in it.
The On3 Industry Ranking features 32 five-stars to reflect the number of players selected in the first round of the NFL Draft. Twenty-eight of those 32 recruits have already announced their college decisions.
The On3 Industry Ranking is a proprietary algorithm that compiles ratings and rankings from all four primary recruiting media services. It is also the industry’s most advanced, complete and unbiased measurement.
It weights the primary recruiting media services based on past performance data, and overall scouting and recruiting coverage investment. For football, the algorithm is weighted as follows: On3 (35%), 247Sports (35%), Rivals.com (20%) and ESPN (10%).
After the latest updates, those 32 prospects are listed below:
1. Five-Star Plus+ QB Bryce Underwood — LSU
School: Belleville (Mich.)
Scouting Summary: “Premier arm talent who is one of the more gifted high school quarterback prospects in recent years. Combination of arm strength, pocket feel and processing ability makes him the top quarterback in the 2025 cycle. Owns a wide-shouldered frame, measuring in at 6-foot-4, 214 pounds with 10-inch hands at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Touts a big-time arm with the ability to drive the ball with velocity to all levels of the field. Has the ability to touch every area of the field with ease. Throws a very tight spiral that amplifies the velocity on the tail of his passes. Has shown advanced skill as a passer. Comfortable delivering over the middle of the field from within the pocket. Consistently sticks the ball on receivers against tight coverage. Shows the ability to layer passes with touch and high-level location, especially downfield. Demonstrates the best pocket presence in the cycle entering the senior season.
“A vertical mover in the pocket who navigates pressure at a level well beyond his years. Has rhythmic feet when operating within structure. Doubles as a run threat with the ability to make defenders miss in space. Arguably the most accomplished quarterback in the cycle, touting a 40-2 record as a starter with two state titles entering his senior season. Completed 65% of his passes for 3,329 yards (12.1 yards per attempt) and 41 touchdowns against 3 interceptions as a junior. Has longer arms and has a tendency to drop his elbow at times within his throwing motion. Team often raced out to big leads, allowing for fewer high-leverage and playmaking opportunities as a junior. Very young for the cycle with an August birthday and could technically be a 2026 prospect. Has considerable physical upside and room for continued growth.”
2. Five-Star Plus+ QB Tavien St. Clair — Ohio State
School: Bellefontaine (Ohio)
Scouting Summary: “Smooth passer with prototypical physical tools that point to one of the higher developmental upsides among quarterbacks in the 2025 cycle. Measured in at 6-foot-3.75, 225 pounds with a 9.5-inch hand at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Added 15 pounds during his junior year. Looks like the most physically developed top quarterback in the 2025 cycle. Has smooth and tight mechanics as a passer. Touts an easily replicable release. Consistently throws a tight spiral. Mechanical foundation makes him a naturally accurate passer when his timing is right. Has a plus arm and does not have to strain to generate ample velocity on his passes. A standout in the camp setting. Had a productive junior season, completing 70.6% of his passes for 3,083 yards (9.34 yards per attempt) and 37 touchdowns against 6 interceptions.
“Doubles as a solid runner who can pick up yards with his legs when called upon. Functional mobility gives him the ability to extend plays. Background as a three-sport athlete, also playing basketball and baseball before turning his focus on football. Shows above-the-rim bounce on the hardwood. The degree of improvement from his sophomore to junior years is indicative of an ascending prospect. Needs to continue honing his processing and decision-making. Internal clock can move fast at times and looks most comfortable throwing in the drill and on-air setting in live exposures to this point. Does not face top competition at the high school level. Improvement with his timing will put him in a position to be one of the top prospects in the cycle due to his significant physical upside and skilled passing ability.”
3. Five-Star Plus+ WR Dakorien Moore — Oregon
School: Duncanville (Texas)
Scouting Summary: “Skilled, athletic wide receiver who has separated himself as the top pass-catcher in the 2025 cycle. Possesses an extremely well-rounded skill set. Measured in at 5-foot-10 ⅞, 186 pounds with 31 ⅝-inch arms at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Has very large hands for his size, at 10.25 inches. A dynamic track athlete, running a scintillating 10.40 second time in the 100 meters along with a long jump over 24 feet. Also tests well in the combine setting. Shows a refined and well-rounded skill set as a receiver both on Friday nights and in the camp setting. Harnesses his great top end speed with change of direction and lateral agility, making for consistent separation.
“Has the long speed to separate deep and take the top off of defenses. Shifty after the catch and uses his field vision to find open space, sometimes cutting back across the field. Ferocious ball-winner at the catch point, using his bounce and strong hands to consistently come down with jump balls. Plays much bigger than his size and has a large catch radius. Highly productive as a junior, while leading his team to a second straight state title in Texas’ largest classification, catching 69 passes for 1,486 yards (21.5 yards per catch) and 18 touchdowns. Does not have prototypical size as an outside receiver, but has the athleticism and skills to compensate. Looks like an immediate impact player and one with a high long-term ceiling.”
4. Five-Star Plus+ OT David Sanders Jr. — Tennessee
School: Charlotte Providence Day
Scouting Summary: “Twitchy, explosive jumbo athlete who has been one of the top offensive tackles for the entirety of the 2025 cycle. A two-way star for Providence Chrisitian in Charlotte as an offensive tackle and defensive lineman. Has a tall, lean frame, measuring in at 6-foot-5 ¾, 276 pounds with 33.5-inch arms and 9.5-inch hands at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Added over 25 pounds as a junior. Registers as a top athlete in the combine setting. Transfers that athleticism over to the field. An electric mover with considerable twitch. Explodes to the second level and moves effortlessly in space. Played much stronger than his lighter weight would suggest as a junior. Has developed upper body and core strength to plant defenders into the ground. Flashes some dominant tendencies as a drive blocker and finisher.
“Runs his feet on contact and plays with some nastiness. Relatively advanced technically. Held his own against blue-chip prospects as a junior. Also shows off his athleticism as a defensive lineman. Would be an easy Power 4 prospect on that side of the ball. Also shows his functional strength in track and field, where he’s a standout in the shot put, breaking the school record with a 53-3.5 feet throw as a sophomore. Will need to continue adding mass and show he can maintain his top shelf athleticism and hold the weight well within his frame. Length is solid, but not elite for the position. Older for the class, turning 18 years old as a junior.”
5. Five-Star Plus+ CB Devin Sanchez — Ohio State
School: Houston North Shore
Scouting Summary: “Tall, athletic cornerback who boasts the most refined coverage skill set among top defensive backs in the 2025 cycle. Measured at 6-foot-2, 180 pounds with 32-inch arms at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Touts a strong size and speed combination, running 10.69 seconds in the 100 meters as a junior. Was a lockdown defender as a junior, making plays at a very high rate when targeted. Finished with 11 pass breakups and five interceptions. Comfortable in working on an island in man coverage. Has smooth and technical footwork.
“Shows instincts and ball skills. Does a great job staying attached on vertical routes. Even when he gives up a catch, still manages to be in good position. A one-way, specialized cornerback prospect who stars for one of the top high school football programs in the state of Texas. Will need to add physicality to his game as he tends to shy away from contact as a tackler. High-end traits and polish make him the safest bet in coverage in the cycle with his ceiling likely to be determined by his development as a run defender and open field tackler.”
6. Five-Star Plus+ DL Elijah Griffin — Uncommitted
School: Pooler (Ga.) Savannah Christian Prep
Scouting Summary: “Highly athletic, disruptive defensive lineman who looks like the top prospect along the defensive front entering his senior season. One of the top defensive line prospects in several cycles. Measured at 6-foot-4, 300 pounds with 34.5-inch arms and 10-inch hands prior to his senior season. Has continued adding mass and strength. Flies off the snap and darts into the backfield to create disruption with regularity. A very loose and fluid athlete, particularly at his size. Plays with outstanding leverage and body lean. Shows advanced hands at the point of attack and quickly neutralizes offensive linemen. Darts into the backfield to make plays behind the line of scrimmage at a high clip. Consistently wins in a phone booth with his combination of length, strength and first-step quickness.
“Has the speed in pursuit to track down running backs from the back side. Posted phenomenal production throughout his high school career, with 182 tackles, 61 tackles for loss and 35.5 sacks as a sophomore and junior. Shows his functional strength and short area explosion in track and field, where he’s posted a 52-2 foot throw in the shot put. Posts eye-popping numbers in the weight room, with a 405 pound bench press, 550+ pound squat and 315 pound clean prior to his junior season. Projects as a top defensive lineman with the ability to line up and disrupt from multiple spots on a defensive front.”
7. Five-Star Plus+ CB DJ Pickett — LSU
School: Zephyrhills (Fla.)
Scouting Summary: “Dynamic, explosive two-way playmaker who looks like one of the top defensive back prospects in the 2025 cycle, with the highest upside coming as a cornerback. A big-time two-way player as a receiver and defensive back. Tall and long with a thinner build, measuring at 6-foot-4, 179 pounds at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Has elite length for the position with 33 ⅝-inch arms. An extremely twitchy athlete who also excels in track and field. Turned in sensational marks in the 100 meters (10.62 seconds) and 200 meters (21.69 seconds) as a sophomore. A natural playmaker on Friday nights. Pairs his plus athleticism and easy movement skills with high level instincts and ball skills. Has elite range as a deep safety. Reads and jumps routes to make plays on the ball. Has fluid feet and is a loose mover, increasing optimism about the projection to corner. Looks to be the most physical top cornerback prospect in the 2025 cycle, flying downhill and delivering big hits on ball carriers.
“Doubles as a game-breaking receiver with the ability to take the top off of defenses and come down with acrobatic contested catches. Finished his junior season with 1,033 receiving yards, 15 touchdowns and one interception. Was ranked as a safety early on, but projects as a legitimate high-end cornerback prospect and is talented enough to be considered a blue-chip wide receiver. Will need to gain experience if he converts to corner, primarily having been a safety at the high school level. A bit older for the cycle, with a May birthday. Will need to continue adding good mass to his leaner frame once in college. Has significant upside as a potential early contributor and high NFL Draft pick.”
8. Five-Star Plus+ DL Justus Terry — Uncommitted
School: Manchester (Ga.)
Scouting Summary: “Explosive defensive lineman with a big frame and outstanding first-step quickness. Measured in at over 6-foot-4 and around 280 pounds prior to his senior season. Has good length with arms that are around 33.5 to 34 inches. Weight is evenly proportioned throughout his frame. Dominant while playing the small school level, tallying 78 tackles, 21 tackles for loss and 13 sacks. Lines up all over the defensive front at the high school level. Has the skill set to develop into a dynamic interior pass rusher. Wins with first step and lateral quickness, has rare get off and leverage for a player of his stature. Quality bend and ability to change direction. Uses his length to initiate contact consistently and sheds blockers with ease. Able to anchor and two-gap if needed. Will need to continue adding mass and play strength in addition to honing his technical skills. A high upside prospect given his natural traits who could develop into a true interior disruptor.”
9. Five-Star Plus+ CB Na’eem Offord — Ohio State
School: Birmingham (Ala.) Parker
Scouting Summary: “Twitchy, highly coordinated athlete who projects as one of the top defensive back prospects in the 2025 cycle. Has 6-foot-1.25, 181-pounds with 31.5-inch arms.

Effective at triggering and jumping passes to make plays on the ball. Very loose in his lower body, making for high-level change of direction. Excellent ball tracker as a defensive back, showing the ability to locate the football over his shoulder.
“Closes quickly as a tackler in the flats. Has a playmaking element to his game, which can be seen as a punt returner, taking back multiple punts for touchdowns as a junior. Has outstanding balance with the ball in his hands. Turned in a strong junior season, picking off five passes and scoring 12 total touchdowns, scoring five different ways. Speed is good, but not elite at the position, so will need to continue improving his top gear. Posted an 11.09 second time in the 100 meters and went 21.97 in the 200 meters as a junior. Should continue improving with more time spent focused on working as a defensive back.”
10. Five-Star Plus+ S Jonah Williams — Texas

“Had four interceptions as a junior along with eight pass breakups. Capable of covering tight ends and receivers out of the slot. Has the skill level to be a wide receiver prospect if he wanted. A two-sport standout, as a talented baseball player who throws 94 MPH as a left-handed pitcher. Can continue making strides with his form and physicality as a tackler. Could potentially outgrow the safety spot due to his bigger frame. Rare movement skills and size give him the upside to be a game-changing movable piece at the college and pro level.”

School: Denton (Texas) Ryan
Scouting Summary: “Explosive, powerful offensive tackle with high-end traits for the position.

Transfers those physical attributes over to the field in a functional way. Works at left tackle for Denton Ryan, one of the top talent-producing high school programs in North Texas. Flashes very strong hands, stunning defensive linemen with his initial punch.
“Has strong grip strength and maintains his blocks. A bully in the run game. Shows good reactive quickness with moving laterally. Plays with a sturdy base and shows the ability to anchor on contact. Will need to continue honing his pass set technique. Has some stiffness in his lower body and could stand to improve flexibility. Frame may project more as a maxed 315-pounder than at 325+. Has the skill set to project at multiple spots along the offensive line, but stacks up well among a loaded offensive tackle group in the 2025 cycle.”
12. 5-star OT Michael Fasusi — Oklahoma
School: Lewisville (Texas)
Scouting Summary: “Physical offensive lineman with natural brute strength and developmental upside. Measured in at 6-foot-5, 299 pounds with 9.75-inch hands at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Has plus length for the position, with arms that measure 34 ⅞ inches. Has a barrel-chested build. Added significant size during the off-season between his sophomore and junior years. Spends most of his time as a left tackle, but has also played some on the right side. A bull in the run game. Latches onto defensive linemen and keeps his feet moving on contact. Gets a considerable push at the point of attack. Plays with an edge and works to finish blocks with authority.
“Showed encouraging improvement on the field as a junior, adding play strength. A solid overall athlete with upside to continue improving as a pass protector. Can improve lateral agility and balance. Has a tendency to lunge and get off balance when facing college-level prospects in the camp setting. Also participates in track and field, sporting a personal best throw of 51-8.75 feet in the shot put as a junior, a strong mark. Ability in the run game gives him a high floor with the positional versatility to play tackle or guard long-term. Ultimate ceiling will be determined by his continued improvement in pass protection, but the upside is there.”
13. 5-star QB Keelon Russell — Alabama
School: Duncanville (Texas)
Scouting Summary: “Well-rounded quarterback prospect with dual threat ability and a battle-teste resume. Measured at 6-foot-3 ⅛, 181 pounds with a 9 ⅝-inch hand at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Grew over half an inch as a junior. At the dials of one of the most talented offenses in high school football, leading Duncanville to back-to-back state titles in Texas highest classification as a sophomore and junior. Highly effective and efficient as a distributor. A good decision-maker who runs Duncanville’s offense at a high level. One of the most efficient quarterbacks in the 2025 cycle, completing 74.1% of his passes for 3,267 yards and 35 touchdowns against 3 interceptions over 15 games as a junior. Also rushed for 304 yards and 4 touchdowns. Shows good zip on his passes, particularly in the short and intermediate areas of the field. Shows the ability to step up in the pocket to avoid pressure. Good athlete as a runner. More dangerous as a rushing threat than his production would indicate. Effective as a scrambler and has a good feel for when to tuck it and run.
“Processes the game well and plays quickly mentally. Competitive and plays well in big moments. Should not have as big of an adjustment to the speed of the game as some of his peers, given his battle-tested resume. At his best when delivering from a set platform. Arm is good, but not truly when compared to his fellow top-rated peers. Plays with a loaded supporting cast that maximizes yards after the catch. Will need to continue getting bigger and stronger and could stand to loosen up his arm some, in order to aid in velocity when delivering from off-platform. One of the younger top quarterbacks in the 2025 cycle, with a late April birthday. Showed encouraging improvement during the off-season prior to his senior year.”
14. 5-star EDGE Isaiah Gibson — Georgia
School: Warner Robins (Ga.)
Scouting Summary: “Big EDGE prospect who creates a mismatch with his combination of rare physical traits, athleticism and power. Measured in at 6-foot-3.25, 263 pounds at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Has elite length and a big frame, sporting 35-inch arms and 10.5 hands.

Able to generate sacks that some others can’t due to his power and finishing ability. Shows speed and effort in pursuit. Also projects as a high-end edge setter due to his size and strength. Also plays basketball, showing his athleticism as a rim protector and dunker. Will need to continue honing his technical skill set as a pass rusher, adding moves to his repertoire.

Measured in at over 6-foot-5, 295 pounds with 34 ⅜ inch arms prior to his senior season. Added around 20 pounds as a junior. A naturally flexible athlete. Has a flat back in his stance and plays low, sinking his hips to drive up through defenders. A strong functional mover. Moves well and shows light feet. Has advanced balance and shows a strong base, playing with his feet rooted in the ground.
“Shows surprising and borderline startling play strength for a developmental tackle. Consistently manhandles defensive linemen at the point of attack. Sustains blocks with his strong grip strength and often finishes with authority, planting defensive linemen in the dirt. Shows an encouraging level of physicality and nastiness. Will need to continue honing his overall technique, particularly in pass protection.

School: Shaker Heights (Ohio)

“Physical with and more than willing to lower his shoulder. Flows downhill with vigor and shows good tackling technique in the open field, driving through ball carriers. Has very good ball skills as a safety prospect. Broke up 12 passes as a junior and is capable of making one-handed catches on offense. A long-strider in the open field. A competitor with the play personality you desire on defense. May not be truly overwhelming in one area, but has a well-rounded skill set as a true safety. Can continue improving his trigger and break on the ball in coverage.”
18. 5-star IOL Solomon Thomas — Florida State

Rushed for 2,080 yards and 37 touchdowns on 13.2 yards per carry as a junior. Has a smaller frame and will need to continue adding good mass in order to carry a substantial load at the next level. Ceiling as a true every down back will be determined by his ability to put on weight while maintaining his athleticism.

School: Jacksonville Mandarin
Scouting Summary: “Savvy, productive receiver who offers scheme versatility and a well-rounded skill set. Measured at 6-foot-0 ⅞,, 184 pounds with 32-inch arms and 9.5-inch hands at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Lines up in the slot and out wide for his high school.

Lethal on back shoulder fades. Has high level body control and is able to twist his body in air while high-pointing the ball. Shows flashes of high-end ball skills, making one-handed grabs in camps and 7-on-7s.
“Tests as a solid athlete in the combine setting. Can improve initial burst and play speed. Will need to clean up drops as he can lose focus and catch with improper hand placement at times. Will need to make strides athletically and with consistency to be a true number one wideout long-term, but has a translatable skill set with his ability to attack the intermediate area and should be considered a high-floor prospect as a possession target.”
21. 5-star WR Kaliq Lockett — Texas
School: Sachse (Texas)

Stacks cornerbacks off the line of scrimmage with his initial burst and releases. Offers the movement skills of a smaller wide receiver with the catch radius and high-point ability of a jumbo pass-catcher.
“Shows shake and good play speed to separate within his routes. Plays with a high level of technical ability. Catches with good technique, using his hands to frame the football. Shows acrobatic in-air ability with the wherewithal to out-jump defenders in contested situations. Also flashes high level tracking skills. Turned in a strong junior season, hauling in 59 catches for 1,299 yards and 13 touchdowns. Will need to continue filling out his frame. Top end speed looks to be solid, but can be improved.”

School: Mission Viejo (Calif.)
Scouting Summary: “Very tall cornerback with advanced awareness and feet in coverage. Measured at 6-foot-3.25, 187 pounds with 32-inch arms and 9.5-inch hands at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season.Battle tested against top competition in one of the nation’s most competitive high school leagues.

Able to track and locate passes. Looks to understand route concepts and has been well-coached. Skilled at reading quarterbacks, sometimes baiting them into ill-advised throws. Dangerous in zone coverage. A physical presence in defending the flats. Bodies ball carriers on contact. Top-end speed remains a question.
“His personal best in the 100 meters is an 11.53 over three seasons of track and field, but has a 46-foot triple jump. Arm length is good at the position, but below average for a 6-foot-3 corner. Ultimate upside as a corner will be largely determined by his improvements in long speed, but has the size and technical skills to be an impact player at the position. Also not of the cards he could end up as a safety long-term given his size and skills.”
23. 5-star QB Husan Longstreet — Texas A&M
School: Corona (Calif.) Centennial
Scouting Summary: “Top arm talent with arguably the strongest arm in the 2025 cycle. Has an absolute flamethrower attached to his right arm.

Has the largest hands among blue-chip quarterbacks in the cycle that measure at 11 inches. Capable of touching all areas of the field with his phenomenal arm strength.

Makes eye-popping downfield throws, ripping passes down the seam from 40 yards out. Can stick the ball on covered receivers who are seemingly unguarded. Shows the ability to go through reads and attack the middle of the field. A twitchy mover who also presents a run threat on designed runs and on scrambles.
“Makes defenders miss in space. Turned in back-to-back strong seasons as a sophomore and junior. Transferred to Corona Centennial as a junior and fared well against top competition, completing 66.8% of his passes for 3,013 yards (10.1 yards per attempt), 24 touchdowns and 6 interceptions. Also rushed for 645 yards and 7 touchdowns. Doesn’t have great stature when projecting him as a pocket operator and can continue improving his consistency and ability to layer his passes. Combination of elite arm talent and athleticism gives him one of the highest ceilings among 2025 quarterback prospects.”
24. 5-star QB Julian Lewis — USC
School: Carrollton (Ga.)
Scouting Summary: “Polished, productive signal caller with the skill set of an accurate distributor. Measured at 6-foot, 186 pounds with a 9 ⅜-inch hand at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Has been a touted prospect for some time, earning offers in middle school. Was initially a member of the 2026 cycle before reclassifying into 2025. A productive and efficient passer while playing in a high classification. Completed 66.4% of his passes for 3,094 yards (11.1 yards per attempt) and 48 touchdowns against two interceptions as a junior. Technically polished and is able to replicate his over the top throwing motion with consistency. Shows the ability to place passes without much variance in location. Quick and decisive decision-maker. Dangerous when working over the middle of the field on RPO’s. Effective at working off of play action.
“Operates at a high level when in a clean pocket. Plays in an offense that often leans on the quick passing game. The youngest top quarterback prospect in the 2025 cycle, turning 17 years-old a month into his senior season. Not physically imposing at this stage and arm strength registers on the lower end among highly-rated peers at the position after reclassifying. Primarily an in-structure quarterback – needs to improve his ability as a rusher (zero rushing touchdowns through two varsity seasons) and improviser against pressure in addition to size and play strength to hold up against contact in the pocket. A skilled, high-floor passer whose ultimate ceiling will be determined by the degree of his physical growth and improvement in athleticism and movement skills.”
25. 5-star TE Elyiss Williams — Georgia
School: Folkston (Ga.) Camden County
Scouting Summary: “Massive tight end with arguably the largest catch radius in the 2025 cycle. Measured in at a shade under 6-foot-7 and around 245 pounds prior to his senior season. Has plus length with arms that measure around 34 inches with large hands. Plays in a wing-T offense at the high school level. Lines up split out wide, detached and in-line. Was primarily targeted on vertical and downfield routes as a junior. Has mismatch ability as a jump ball target. Comes down with catches in crowds of three or four defenders. Made strides with his ball skills as a junior. Shows the ability to track throws over his shoulder. Fluid mover and is coordinated, especially at his size. Able to stretch the seam. Tough to bring down in the open field. Shows good contact balance in breaking tackles. Has a nasty stiff arm. Finished with 25 catches for 530 yards and seven touchdowns as a junior.
“Shows upside as a blocker. Has good play strength and doesn’t shy away from contact. Understands body positioning. Doubles as a top high school basketball player. Was a 1,000+ point scorer in just 2.5 years of varsity action and was regional player of the year as a junior. Needs a runway to get separation due to his longer stride length. Will need to improve quickness, change of direction and release to project as a high-level separator at the position, particularly in the intermediate area of the field. A physically-gifted in-line tight end whose ceiling will be determined by his ability to separate at all levels.”
26. 5-star WR Jerome Myles — USC
School: West Jordan (Utah) Corner Canyon
Scout’s Take: “Has always been a physical and athletic creature at the receiver position, but we wanted to see more development in overall receiver traits from his senior tape. It took all of one game for Myles to show off his development as a deep ball tracker and overall ball skills. Combine that with his already-established YAC ability and top-end speed? Myles could make a case as the biggest senior riser in the entire country regardless of position come signing day. We hope to see him bounce back from an early season knee injury.”
27. 5-star LB Zayden Walker — Georgia
School: Ellaville (Ga.) Schley County
Scouting Summary: “The early front-runner for top EDGE prospect in the 2025 cycle as a rising junior. An unverified 6-foot-2, 220 pounds. Flashes a high-end combination of on-field athleticism and functional play strength. Lines up in both two and three-point stances off the edge. Shows noticeable first-step quickness off the snap. Very strong at the point of attack. Plays with excellent leverage and uses his strong lower body to move offensive linemen both as a bull rusher and run defender. Makes some eye-popping plays in pursuit, showcasing high-end athleticism in tracking down ball carriers from the back side. Doubles as a dangerous running back, using his athleticism and strength to pick up yards after contact. Helped his team to a state title appearance as a sophomore.”
28. 5-star WR Dallas Wilson — Oregon
School: Tampa Bay Tech
Scouting Summary: “Twitchy wide receiver with the ability to win at the catch point and some of the best after-catch ability in the cycle. Measured in at 6-foot-2.75, 193 pounds with 32.5-inch arms and 10-inch hands at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. A good athlete who runs well in the combine setting. Shows a well-rounded skill set on Friday nights. A functional athlete who has a noticeable bounce in his movement. Shows quick feet with the ability to cut on a dime.
“Physical and flashes strong hands at the catch point. Attacks the ball in high-point situations. Outstanding after the catch. Sticks his foot in the ground and gets upfield quickly. Has great contact balance and breaks arm tackles. Dangerous when working underneath and over the middle of the field. Caught 49 passes for 879 yards and nine touchdowns as a junior. Will need to continue adding polish to his game. Projects as a versatile X receiver with the ability to threaten all areas of the field.”
29. 5-star ATH Michael Terry III — Uncommitted
School: San Antonio Alamo Heights
Scouting Summary: “True do-it-all football player who could project at a high level at upwards of four or five positions at the next level. Has lined up as a receiver, running back, quarterback and cornerback for his high school team. Measured at 6-foot-2.5, 211 pounds with 32 ⅛-inch arms and 9-inch hands at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Registers as a strong athlete in track and field posting 6-4 foot high jump and a 11.05-second mark in the 100 meters. Transfers that athleticism to the field, where he is one of the more impactful jumbo athletes in the cycle on Friday nights. Shows good patience and athleticism as a big running back. Good ability after the catch as a receiver. Rushed for nearly 1,000 yards and 20 touchdowns, also accounting for over 500 receiving yards and 10 more scores as a junior.
“Could potentially grow into a jack-of-all-trades offensive weapon capable of lining up in the backfield, split out as a receiver or as an H-Back. May have the highest true upside as a versatile back-seven defender. Has a linebacker frame with corner athleticism and fluidity. Capable of impressive plays in coverage. Has true positional ambiguity but an extremely versatile and useful skill set, but will need to hone in on one position and add technical skill as he’s yet to focus at one spot. Must improve his catching technique if he plays wide receiver full time, as he has a tendency to body catch in addition to polishing up his routes.”
30. 5-star TE Linkon Cure — Kansas State
School: Goodland (Kan.)
Scouting Summary: “Elite jumbo athlete who has prototypical athleticism and skills for the position. Measured at 6-foot-4.5, 210 with a 32-inch arm and 10-inch hand prior to his senior season. Highly decorated track athlete as three-time state champion in the 110-meter (14.52 seconds) and 300-meter (38.90 seconds) hurdles. Also ran a very impressive 11.05-second mark in the 100 meters as a junior. Hails from a remote area of northwest Kansas and looks like a man amongst boys on Friday nights. Athleticism jumps off the film. A fluid, natural mover. Gets up to full speed quickly. Lines up both split out and in-line on offense. Shows a large catch radius. Contorts his body to make high-level grabs.
“Comes down with contested catches in traffic. Has the ability to take it to the house after the catch. Finished his junior season with 41 catches for 946 yards (over 23 yards per catch) and 14 touchdowns. Also plays defense. Excels on the hardwood, scoring in double figures for a state finalist team as a junior. Shows off his athleticism, throwing down impressive dunks. How he measures and looks in a neutral setting will add much more clarity to his evaluation given the lower level of competition he faces. Elite multi-sport profile and athleticism give him a very high ceiling at the position.”
31. 5-star QB Matt Zollers — Missouri
School: Royersford (Pa.) Spring-Ford
Scouting Summary: “Live-armed quarterback with the physical tools, athleticism and instincts to make him the top reactive playmaker at the position in 2025 entering the senior season. Measured in at 6-foot-3.5, 203 pounds with 9 ⅞-inch hands at the On3 Elite Series prior to his senior season. Was a relative late riser onto the national recruiting scene, by way of a breakout junior campaign. A highly instinctive playmaker, capable of hurting defenses with his arm and legs. Touts a very live arm. Capable of ripping throws to the boundary with velocity. Threw passes well over 60 yards in-air as a junior. Has the arm strength to stretch the field with ease. A bouncy, twitchy athlete who thrives in the face of pressure. Able to evade pass rushers and keep his eyes downfield. Shows strong spatial awareness in locating open receivers with defenders in his face. A tough player who plays through contact in the pocket.
“Tests as a top athlete in the combine setting and transfers that speed onto the field where he presents a run threat as an improviser and on designed runs. Was efficient and productive as a junior, passing for 2,917 yards (10.1 yards per attempt) and 37 touchdowns against two picks. Also rushed for 420 yards and 7 touchdowns. Also plays basketball as a key contributor on a team that made a deep playoff run. Will need to continue adding consistency with his mechanics and overall polish as he matriculates to the college level. The combination of high-end tools and instinctive play style give him one of the higher ceilings among 2025 quarterbacks.”
32. 5-star LB Riley Pettijohn — Ohio State
School: McKinney (Texas)
Scouting Summary: “Supremely athletic linebacker with a high developmental upside. Measured in at around 6-foot-1.5, 215 pounds prior to his senior season. Has a muscled build with little body fat. A top athlete at the position. Turned in a scintillating 10.77 second mark in the 100 meters as a junior. Stars on one of the top high school defenses in the state of Texas. Runs very well on the field, showing high level speed in space. Capable of tracking down plays from sideline to sideline. Physical and works to avoid and fight through contact when flowing downhill.
“Has the athleticism to project as a strong coverage player and is comfortable playing in man and zone. Turned in a very productive junior season, tallying 125 tackles, 8 tackles for loss, 3 sacks, 1 interception and 5 pass breakups. Can improve his diagnosing speed along with play strength and pop as a tackler. Younger for the cycle, turning 17 years-old in July prior to his junior season. One of the more physically-gifted linebackers in 2025 and looks like a top talent at the position in the cycle.”
