81. Jarrett Patterson, OL, Notre Dame

Patterson plays with great balance, power, and hand placement on the interior of the Fighting Irish offensive line. His versatility, with both experience at guard and center, will intrigue NFL teams in the 2022 NFL Draft, should he declare.

82. Khalil Shakir, WR, Boise State

Shakir has seen his stock soar of late, as he makes highlight reel plays at the catch point every single week. He can separate quickly as a route runner, and has great change of direction skills and contact balance after the catch.

83. Justyn Ross, WR, Clemson

Ross hasn’t had the best start to the season, and it may just take time to get back to where he was. Ultimately, seeing him take steps by playing well above and rim and showing off the good athleticism for his size will go a long way.

84. Kenneth Walker III, RB, Michigan State

The tackle-breaking machine, Walker has been a neat surprise thus far. His quick processing and footwork at the line of scrimmage, combined with his ability to break tackles and make defenders miss, could result in a major climb up the 2022 NFL Draft Big Board as the season keeps rolling.

85. Kyler Gordon, CB, Washington

The other corner for the Huskies isn’t so bad either, as Kyler Gordon could make the jump early to the 2022 NFL Draft. The athletic upside is there, so seeing the consistency materialize could result in a declaration.

86. Bernhard Raimann, OT, Central Michigan

A former tight end, Raimann is starting to get some 2022 NFL Draft buzz. He has the athletic baseline to succeed at tackle and plays very well mirroring rushers in pass protection. Watch out for a rise.

87. Lecitus Smith, OL, Virginia Tech

Lecitus Smith plays very good football in a phone booth and even makes climbing to the second level look easy. As more eyes find him, his 2022 NFL Draft stock should continue to move up.

88. Travis Jones, DL, Connecticut

The lone bright spot on a struggling Connecticut football team, Travis Jones has tantalizing upside as a pass rusher from the interior, and he can stack and shed with the best of them.

89. Smoke Monday, S, Auburn

Monday plays with reckless abandon in the secondary, and his closing speed is as good as any in the 2022 NFL Draft. He makes good plays on the ball and keys in well on the quarterback’s eyes and where he wants to go with the football.

90. Isaiah Likely, TE, Coastal Carolina

A pure athlete at tight end, Likely attacks the ball well in the air, and has the speed to threaten vertically up the seam and create big plays downfield. He needs to work on using his hands to work through contact but banking on an athletic tight end is the right call.
