Arvell Reese is still very much a projection as a pass rusher, but the tools are such that it’s a comfortable projection to make. At his peak, he can be a game-wrecker. That’s upside the Commanders need to invest in if he’s there at the No. 7 overall pick.
At an incredibly lean and compact 6’4″, 243 pounds, with hyper-elite explosiveness, short-area correction, and cornering ability, Reese has the athletic tools to torture opposing blockers, as well as the raw, unhinged power to stack-and-shed, reverse run game displacement, and plow through shoulders with bull-rushes and long-arms.
Round 3: Skyler Bell, WR, UConn
Skyler Bell was a dominant producer in 2025; with 10″ mitts at 5’11”, 187 pounds, he’s a strong-handed pass-catcher with energized, explosive athleticism and high-end separation ability from all alignments.
Round 5: VJ Payne, SAF, Kansas State
Round 6: Dan Villari, TE, Syracuse
Round 6: Tyreak Sapp, EDGE, Florida
Round 7: Nicholas Singleton, RB, Penn State
