In this episode of our 2026 NFL Draft summer scouting series, we focus on two of the most exciting defensive prospects in college football — Caleb Downs and Sonny Styles — and break down the strength of the Ohio State Football defense heading into the 2024 season. With elite tools, athleticism, and production already on their résumés, both Downs and Styles are shaping up to be top-tier 2026 NFL Draft prospects.

We dive into Caleb Downs’ football IQ, coverage versatility, and tackling ability, projecting how his game translates to the next level. Meanwhile, Sonny Styles’ size, explosiveness, and hybrid role give him rare upside as a potential NFL chess piece. Together, they form one of the most dynamic safety duos in the nation — and possibly the next great first-round defensive backs from Columbus.

In this summer scouting episode, we dive deep into the 2026 NFL Draft class by focusing on key Ohio State Football playmakers: Carnell Tate, Max Klare, and the Buckeyes' evolving offense. Ohio State has been a consistent pipeline of NFL talent, and 2026 looks to be no different. We break down the traits, upside, and NFL potential of these rising stars and how they fit into the Buckeyes' high-powered offense heading into the 2024 college football season.

Is Carnell Tate the next great Ohio State wide receiver to make noise in the NFL Draft? Can tight end Max Klare emerge as a breakout weapon and create mismatch problems at the next level? We analyze their route running, hands, athleticism, football IQ, and projected draft stock, as well as how their development could shape the 2026 NFL Draft landscape.

In this episode of Daft or Draft!?, we break down two of the most intriguing storylines heading into the 2025 NFL Draft. Can Tate Ratledge make an immediate Day 1 impact as an NFL offensive lineman?

We dive into the scouting reports, player traits, NFL team fits, and upside that make these two prospects worth watching.

Ratledge’s physicality and SEC pedigree scream plug-and-play potential — but is he really ready to handle elite NFL talent right away? Meanwhile, Jackson’s combination of size, personality, and production could make him a media darling and locker-room leader, but how does his game translate to the next level?
