2 Georgia Bulldogs predicted to be 2027 NFL draft first-round picks

The Georgia Bulldogs are projected to have a pair of players go in the first-round of the 2027 NFL draft, which is a year away. Georgia just had eight players drafted in the 2026 NFL draft including one first-round pick (offensive tackle Monroe Freeling).

Draft Wire projects that Georgia defensive backs KJ Bolden and Ellis Robinson will be first-round picks in the 2027 NFL draft. Bolden and Robinson are both coming off strong seasons for the Georgia secondary.

Bolden, who has been starting since his freshman season, is expected to be the first safety drafted. Draft Wire projects that Bolden will be a top-10 pick next year. The talented defensive back is predicted to be the No. 8 pick and lands with the Carolina Panthers. It'd be surprising to see Bolden go so early after Ohio State star safety Caleb Downs did not go in the top-10 this year.

In addition to Bolden, Robinson is expected to be a first-round pick, but he's not expected to be selected as early. Robinson goes as the No. 27 pick to the Dallas Cowboys in this way-too-early mock draft.

Robinson improved significantly over the course of the 2025 college football season and is projected to start at cornerback for Georgia this fall. Robinson is a former five-star recruit with excellent speed and good length. Robinson played particularly well in Georgia's 2025 SEC championship win over Alabama.
