Many offensive prospects became big NFL Draft risers in Week 13 with standout performances. Here are five NFL Draft risers who boosted their draft stock in Week 13 of college football.

Top Offensive NFL Draft Risers From Week 13 of College Football

QB Carson Beck, Miami (FL)

Carson Beck has played maybe his two best games of the season in the last two weeks. Against Virginia Tech, he completed 27 of his 32 pass attempts for 320 yards, four touchdowns, and no interceptions, and had a season-high 95.3 QBR. Beck was extremely accurate in the game, and he took great care of the football. Since the upset loss to SMU in Week 10, Beck has completed 79.5% of his passes and averaged 286 passing yards per game with an 8-0 TD-INT ratio. He now has the second-best completion percentage in college football while also ranking in the top 20 for passing yards, passing touchdowns, and QBR this season.

RB LJ Martin, BYU

LJ Martin ran for a career-high 222 rushing yards, and he scored two touchdowns in a 26-14 win over Cincinnati to help keep BYU’s playoff hopes alive. He also had one of the best receiving performances of his career with 44 receiving yards. Martin is a powerful running back with great size and vision. He has been one of the best running backs in college football this season, with 1,134 rushing yards, leading the Big 12 and ranking seventh in the country in rushing yards. Martin could be an early Day 3 pick if he declares for the 2026 NFL Draft.

RB Noah Whittington, Oregon

Noah Whittington is playing his best football late in the season, and he continued his great play in Week 13. Against USC, Whittington had 104 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown on 19 carries. This is the third time in the last five weeks that Whittington has run for over 100 yards. Since the loss against Indiana, Whittington has averaged 103.2 rushing yards per game and 7.5 yards per carry. Against the Trojans, Whittington also had his best receiving game of the season with four receptions for 22 yards. If Whittington continues to finish the season strong, he has a good chance to be a late-round draft pick.

TE Kenyon Sadiq, Oregon

Kenyon Sadiq joined Whittington as one of the top players in a big top 15 matchup against USC. He led the team with six receptions and 72 receiving yards. Sadiq also had his second two-touchdown game of the season in Oregon’s 42-27 win over USC. Sadiq is a top-tier tight end prospect who has had three of his strongest performances of the season in his last four games played. With his play late in the season, Sadiq is increasing his chances of being a top 15 pick in the NFL Draft.

TE Rohan Jones, Arkansas

In his first year at the FBS level, after helping Montana State reach the FCS National Championship Game in 2024, Rohan Jones has quickly become one of the most productive tight ends in the SEC. In a high-scoring game against Texas in Week 13, Jones led Arkansas in receiving with five receptions and 82 yards. He currently has the sixth-most receiving yards of any tight end in college football this season, with 493 yards. Jones has great big-play ability, averaging 27.4 yards per reception, and he is currently the highest-rated tight end in the FBS, according to PFF, with a 91.6 overall PFF offense grade. He could end up being a late-round pick in the draft.
