Trey'Dez Green — 2027 NFL Mock Draft Roundup 1.0

Green is more than a towering red zone threat at 6-foot-7; he's also a viable slot presence who can thrive in the middle of the field.

Green is a glorified, supersized receiver who is labeled as a tight end because of his 6-foot-7, 240-pound frame. He's a mismatch playmaker inside the opponent's 25-yard-line, where he scored all seven of his touchdowns last season. His height and leaping ability help him tower over defenders in one-on-one situations, and expect new coach Lane Kiffin to expand Green's production from last season (33 receptions for 433 yards). Green could provide Tampa Bay with an upgrade over Cade Otton at tight end and give the Bucs options in 12 personnel.

A former two-sport athlete who once moonlighted on the hardwood for the Tigers, the 6-foot-7 Green has emerged as one of college football's most unique pass-catching talents. While he doesn't lack the toughness to play in-line, he does his best work as a receiver, aligning outside and in the slot while stressing defenses with his size and athleticism, particularly in the red zone.

This may be an ambitious projection for Green, who has just 46 career receptions as a former basketball recruit. His seven touchdowns last season and strong performances against South Carolina and Houston make him a prospect to monitor for the first round. Green has the athletic profile to excel in pre-draft testing.
