Will Howard
2025 NFL Draft Prospect
- Height: 6-4
- Weight: 236
- School: Ohio State
- Class: Senior
| PRO | CON |
|---|---|
| Steady composure and leadership in the toughest environments and biggest moments. Strong arm with the ability to hit the deep ball. Can make plays with his legs, not afraid of contact. Good processing of pre-snap looks. | Ball placement was sporadic at times, mostly due to sloppy footwork and inconsistent arm angles. Would get rattled when defenses brought extra pressure. Tends to freelance out of the backfield, leading to negative plays. |
OVERVIEW: Howard became a household name this past season after an unlikely run through the College Football Playoff. His stellar play and leadership down the stretch was a huge catalyst for the Buckeyes' success during his one year in Columbus (after transferring from Kansas State). He was named the Offensive MVP in both the Cotton Bowl and CFP National Championship Game, throwing for over 4,000 yards with 35 touchdowns in his final season of college football.
