2026 NFL Draft Prospect
- Height: 6-2

- School: Oklahoma
- Class: Senior
| PRO | CON |
|---|---|
| High motor makes him one of the best finishers in the NFL Draft, often finding production late in games. Bendy pass rusher with some sneaky strength in his hands, allowing a power or speed rush. | Very pass-rush centric and struggled to set the edge against the run. Would be stood up by tackles with longer reach and the ability to kick out quickly. Dealt with some nagging injuries throughout his career. |
OVERVIEW: Thomas comes from a football family as his father, Harvey, played at Florida. And you can see that type of processing ability with how comfortable he is in pass-rushing situations. His numbers also showed that with nine sacks in 2024 and 6.5 in 2025, along with 12.5 and 9.5 tackles for loss, respectively, over those two seasons. The two-time All-SEC honoree comes to the NFL with plenty of tape and production to back up his ability. However, certain elements of his game will need to improve significantly to establish himself.
COMPARISON: Yannick Ngakoue
