2027 NFL Draft Preseason Rankings Highlight Top Tight Ends

Trey'Dez Green, a tight end from LSU, is projected to be among the top prospects for the 2027 NFL Draft after an impressive season where he recorded 33 receptions for 433 yards and seven touchdowns. This marks the 10th installment of Dane Brugler's Summer Scouting series, which evaluates various positions ahead of the draft.

Green's unique athleticism and catching ability make him a formidable player, particularly noted for his performance in the Texas Bowl where he scored two touchdowns. His background includes a late start in football, transitioning from a high school receiver to a tight end at LSU, where he has shown significant improvement.

Other notable tight ends in the rankings include Johnson from Oregon, who is expected to take on a larger role following the departure of a teammate, and Brahmer from Penn State, who has transferred from Iowa State and is anticipated to have a productive final season. The tight end position is expected to be competitive in the upcoming draft, with several players demonstrating first-round potential.
