Charles Davis’ prospects to pound the table for
As the famous song by the musical group Europe goes, “It’s the final countdown.”
The draft officially kicks off tomorrow night with the first 31 selections.
Throughout the week, experts have continued to update their first-round predictions ahead of this weekend’s festivities in Kansas City.
NFL Network’s Charles Davis recently published his list of prospects he’d pound the table for. The list features the players he feels most passionately about and contains prospects projected to be selected on all three days of the draft.
Here are Davis’ favorite prospects, along with commentary from the analyst.
Andre Carter II, EDGE, Army
“Carter rose to prominence in 2021, when he posted a school-record 15.5 sacks and became a national sensation. The production declined last season (3.5 sacks), but I still believe in him… He’s a bit of a project right now, but I think a patient team will be rewarded for its investment on Day 3 of the draft.”
Bryan Bresee, DT, Clemson
“I am rooting for this young man, who has faced a great deal of adversity in his career… We know he is extremely talented, and I fully expect that talent to shine when he gets to the NFL, likely as a first-round pick.”
Karl Brooks, DT, Bowling Green
“I was surprised Brooks didn’t receive an invite to the combine. He recorded 46 tackles for loss in 52 games played for Bowling Green, and he had a terrific week at the Senior Bowl… Don’t sleep on him sneaking into Day 2 of the draft.”
Isaiah Moore, LB, N.C. State

Marte Mapu, LB, Sacramento State
“Mapu played his college ball at the FCS level, but underestimate him at your own risk… The big question for NFL decision-makers is figuring out where they want to play Mapu. He’s played safety, but he’ll most likely be asked to add some weight and play Will linebacker in a 4-3 defense.”
Dorian Williams, LB, Tulane
“Allow me to introduce you to a tackling machine… Any team in the market for an off-ball linebacker on Day 3 of the draft should be pounding the table for the former Green Wave star.”
Tre’Vius Hodges-Tomlinson, CB, TCU
“We’ve heard a lot about Hodges-Tomlinson’s lack of size (5-8, 178), but when I watch him play, I see a guy who is sticky in coverage and battles every receiver he comes across……
