The Florida Gators are quietly building a roster that could make serious noise in the 2027 NFL Draft, with three standout players already generating early buzz: running back Jadan Baugh, wide receiver Eric Singleton Jr., and linebacker Myles Graham. For fans of college football and the NFL draft process, this trio represents the kind of star power that turns a program into a powerhouse.
Leading the charge is Jadan Baugh, a 6-foot-1, 231-pound bruiser who earned All-SEC Second-Team honors in 2025. Baugh isn't just a draft prospect—he's a potential Heisman candidate for the upcoming season. Last year, he started all 12 games, carrying the ball 220 times for 1,170 yards and eight touchdowns. His rushing yards, attempts, and total scores all led the team, proving he's the engine of Florida's offense. With that kind of production, he's a name to watch closely.
Eric Singleton Jr. adds a different kind of firepower. At 5-foot-10 and 180 pounds, the Auburn transfer brings NFL-caliber speed and big-play ability that could transform the Gators' passing game. A former freshman All-American, Singleton was one of the most sought-after players in the transfer portal, and Florida plans to feature him prominently. His vertical threat should open up the field and make the offense far more dynamic.
On defense, Myles Graham has the tools to become the centerpiece of coordinator Brad White's unit. Standing 6-foot-1 and weighing 228 pounds, the linebacker combines athleticism with instincts that allow him to cover sideline-to-sideline. If he breaks out this season, he could lead Florida's defense back into the top 25 and solidify his place as a top professional prospect.
This trio highlights a broader trend: Florida's roster is improving at the top end. The program had seven players selected in the 2026 NFL Draft—one in each round, a first for the school. Under new head coach Jon Sumrall, that pipeline of talent is only growing stronger. For Gators fans, it's an exciting time to watch these players develop and carry the program back into the national spotlight.
