Quincy Rhodes is an EDGE from Arkansas who is ranked No. 30 on my NFL Draft Top 100 Big Board. This comprehensive scouting report analyzes Rhodes’s draft potential, current mock draft trends, and where he ranks among the top prospects.
Quincy Rhodes’s NFL Draft Potential
Quincy Rhodes Jr.’s raw traits evaluation is extremely appealing. At 6’6″, 275 pounds, he has high-end size, length, and mass, to go along with elite explosiveness, quickness, and high-level bend capacity for his size. However, the production has yet to come against legitimate competition.
All five of his sacks thus far in 2025 came against lower-conference opponents, and he’s been almost blanked playing against SEC offensive lines the past two weeks. Rhodes flashes exciting potential with spins, rips, and speed-to-power reps, but the application is far too inconsistent right now, and that inconsistent leveraging spans to run defense as well. The potential is there for Rhodes to be a Round 1 pick, but we need to see it against legitimate competition first.
CFB Week 9 Update
For the first time this season since his game against Ole Miss, Rhodes produced against SEC competition in Week 9, racking up two sacks against the Auburn Tigers in a 24-33 loss. The consistency on a down-to-down basis is still coming along, and there were times when Rhodes sold out in the run game and lost gap integrity, but overall, his Week 9 showing was a step in the right direction.
His power application looks visibly improved, and it shows: Both when slabbing base blocks and preventing displacement and when operating as a pass-rusher. His first sack was excellent: A violent inside-swim where power and explosiveness combined to overwhelm. If Rhodes can continue to stack this momentum, he can realize his early-round potential.
