Once again, the Georgia Bulldogs are sending a plethora of players to the NFL Draft. With the draft quickly approaching in April and the combine coming soon, it is about time to analyze these Bulldogs and where their best fits could be. In this article, we'll take a deep dive into those Bulldogs ranked inside The Athletic's Top 100 list .
CJ Allen - Tampa Bay Buccaneers
This might seem like a reach at first glance, but the Buccaneers taking CJ Allen at no. 15 makes too much sense. The Bucs were just a game or two shy of winning the NFC South last season and already have some of the keys to getting over the hump with guys like Baker Mayfield and a very young yet talented offense.
However, look at the linebackers on roster for Tampa Bay. The Bucs still have their legend at linebacker Lavonte David, but after he decides to retire, who do they have? Allen could join the roster and not only get early playing time but learn under the greatest to do it for Tampa Bay.
Monroe Freeling - Los Angeles Chargers
Let's face it: the Chargers could have been playing for the Super Bowl if they had a better offensive line. At several points throughout the season, it looked like quarterback Justin Herbert was in line to win the league MVP.
For reference, Herbert is already third on the Chargers' all-time list for sacks taken as a quarterback with over 200. The young quarterback has only been playing for six years. If the Chargers can go out and get a guy like Monroe Freeling, they can protect Herbert's blind spot and give themselves a chance to get over the wild card playoff hump.
This would also give Freeling the ability to start immediately for a team that is not only already a playoff contender, but is coached by Jim Harbough, who is known to be able to coach up some great offensive lineman in his coaching career.
Christen Miller - New York Jets
Though the Jets seemed like they had a disastrous 2025 season, they have more keys in place than at first glance. The Jets suffered the injury plague like no other team last year while also having to play the Patriots and the Bills twice respectively.Christen Miller could be a guy that the Jets could get on Day 2 and start immediately. Miller could be the perfect gap specialist for the Jets that can also rush the passer with his athleticism.
Also, New York is a very large market, so that can't hurt for Miller to earn some extra branding compensation.
Zachariah Branch - San Francisco 49ers
There are not many better Deebo Samuel replacement options than Zachariah Branch. When the 49ers were playing for Super Bowls, Samuel was their do-it-all guy that caught nearly every screen pass and was able to run the ball just the same. Now, who does that sound like?
Branch played the exact same style while in Athens, which should make Kyle Shannahan's eyes widen with excitement. Branch could be the perfect weapon to get Brock Purdy back into a groove and take some pressure off of George Kittle and Christian McCaffery.
