Hezekiah Masses’ NFL Draft Potential
Hezekiah Masses has been one of the biggest risers at the cornerback position in the 2026 NFL Draft. After transferring from Florida International, he’s been one of the CFB leaders in forced incompletions for much of the year on the back end of California’s defense.
At 6’1″, 185 pounds, Masses is long and sticky in man coverage, with stellar mirror-motor quickness, size-adjusted fluidity, plant-and-drive efficiency, and competitive zeal at the catch point.
He’s not a burner, which will hurt him in Indianapolis, and he has room to add additional mass to his frame, but he should be a prime target for teams that run heavy press and off-man coverage.
Where Is Masses Being Selected Most Often in the PFSN Mock Draft Simulator?
Masses currently holds the No. 79 overall rank among prospects, reflecting his standing among mid-round prospects. His most recent Average Draft Position (ADP) of 80.5 as of October 13 reflects that he is typically being selected on Day 2 or early Day 3.
This small gap between rank and ADP suggests he’s consistently valued among evaluators, even amid fluctuations in player evaluations at this stage of the draft cycle.
Users controlling the Atlanta Falcons have been the team that selected Masses the most frequently over the past week, accounting for 1.3% of their picks across all seven rounds.
