Where South Carolina's Dylan Stewart, LaNorris Sellers are in 2027 NFL mock drafts
Quarterback LaNorris Sellers had a breakout year in 2024 but a disappointing season in 2025. He will be an intriguing name to follow throughout his third season.
A lot could change between now and next April but here's a look at which Gamecocks players are currently in 2027 NFL Draft conversations.
Where South Carolina players are projected in 2027 NFL Draft
In three mock drafts, South Carolina edge rusher Dylan Stewart is projected as a top-10 pick. Stewart is 6-foot-5, 245 pounds and has started the last two seasons for Beamer.
Stewart battled through a back injury in 2025 and is still recovering, but with one healthy, productive season it seems like most project Stewart won't wait long to hear his name called.
The Athletic projects offensive tackle Jacarrius Peak will go No. 17 overall to the Cincinnati Bengals. He transferred from NC State and missed spring practice with an injury but is expected to play this fall.
Nyck Harbor, a 6-5 wide receiver with elite speed, is listed at No. 70 on Pro Football Focus' list of prospects. He led the Gamecocks in 2025 with 618 receiving yards with six touchdowns. He averaged a career-best 20.6 yards per catch.
Is LaNorris Sellers a first-round pick in NFL mock drafts?
Sports Illustrated has Sellers going No. 5 overall to the Cleveland Browns, but he isn't projected to go in the first round by ESPN, CBS Sports or The Athletic.
The Sporting News does not have Sellers in his list of the best seven quarterbacks who could be taken.
Most 2027 mock drafts are only first round.
