5 NFL Draft prospects to watch on rivalry Saturday

The Saturday after Thanksgiving is a wonderful day for college football. It's the culmination of rivalry week, which fired up with some fun matchups like Georgia vs Georgia Tech and Ole Miss vs Mississippi State on Friday.

For some NFL Draft prospects, this is the last time they'll do anything in football pads until their rookie minicamp. One last chance to produce some game film to impress scouts. For others, it's a chance to keep building on some positive momentum in an important game against a fierce rivalry, something that scouts also want to see.

Here are a few players not at the top of the draft class hype to watch today with an eye for the 2026 NFL Draft.

Davison Igbinosun, CB, Ohio State

Igbinosun has quietly had a very strong year, significantly cutting back on his clutching and grabbing in routes. He's still physical, however, something that he can demonstrate in the run game against a Michigan team that loves to run off-tackle. Another strong game for the legit 6-foot-2, 200-pound boundary corner could have Igbinosun continuing to rise. He was the No. 50 player in the midseason big board and will be higher in the next update.

Romello Height, EDGE, Texas Tech

Everyone knows, or should know, about David Bailey by now. He's a viable top-20 overall prospect as the Red Raiders' leading pass rusher. But Height has shown intrigue as a pass-rush specialist with impressive NFL potential. Height is undersized, listed (perhaps generously) at 6-3/240, but he's blessed with both quickness and speed--traits that aren't always tied together. There's a lot to dive into with Height with his transfers and lack of size, and playing against a West Virginia offensive line that has had its struggles, Height could use another productive game to show he's worth the deeper dive as a potential Day 2 pick.

Rasheem Biles, LB, Pittsburgh

Biles racks up tackles as a lightweight (listed 6-1/220) off-ball linebacker with surprising tackling power for a guy who played wide receiver in high school. Facing a diverse Miami attack in a big ACC game, Biles should get an opportunity to show his all-around abilities. He thrived against Notre Dame after returning from a midseason injury, and his ability to blitz and cover gives Biles potential as a defensive weapon.

Chris Brazzell, WR, Tennessee

It's not often that Tennessee vs Vanderbilt is a game with national significance, but that's what makes this college season so fun. The higher stakes and a pesky Vandy secondary make for a nice proving ground for Brazzell. The 6-foot-5 speedster has been relatively quiet lately after a torrid start (check his 3-TD game vs Georgia). Showing his ability to do more than just run deep routes will help keep Brazzell firmly on Day 2 status.

Jadarian Price, RB, Notre Dame

Price is the No. 2 back for the Fighting Irish behind potential top-10 overall pick Jeremiyah Love. Yet there are some in the draft world who will tell you Price could also be the No. 2 back in the class. The nifty-footed Price runs with a similar compact/explosive style as the slightly bigger Love, and his ability to avoid big hits when a would-be tackler seemingly has him squared up is a lot of fun to watch. Price should get his typical 8-10 carries against Stanford. What can he do with them versus a Cardinal defense that has shown some teeth against the run lately?
