Future First-Round Picks Are Already on Arizona State's Roster

Arizona State on SI names three of the most likely players on the 2026 roster to be selected in the first round of next year's draft below.

Omarion Miller

Miller fits the billing of a first-round NFL prospect in many ways - he possesses requisite size, incredible hands, already owns a versatile route tree, and is a phenomenal blocker when called upon. While the 2027 receiver class is shaping up to be a great one (Jeremiah Smith, Cam Coleman, etc.), Miller has the ceiling of an All-Big 12 selection and should very much be in play to follow Tyson to the next level.

Miller came to Arizona State for the culture, Hines Ward's coaching, and a better opportunity to win - this will all pay off in the months to come.

Reed Harris

Harris is the other superstar receiver who committed to play for Arizona State alongside Miller in January. The former Boston College standout has the makings of an All-Big 12 receiver himself, as he already owns a pro-level frame, moves as fluidly as someone of an average size at the position, and is as strong at high-pointing the ball as anyone at the FBS level.

Expect Harris to place himself in the first-round conversation over the next 12 months.

Rodney Bimage Jr.

Bimage has received incredibly high marks from the coaching staff as a whole over his first two seasons with the program, as well as from Keith Abney II, who sang his praises at the Draft Combine in February.

Ashton Stamps absolutely has the potential to become a first-round level prospect himself, but Bimage is younger and has a jump-start in knowledge of Brian Ward's defensive scheme.

Bimage has ideal size, speed, and anticipation for an NFL cornerback prospect, while also being in a position to receive an expansive role in his third year with the program.

The moral of the story? Dillingham is building something truly special in Tempe, and the 2026/27 draft classes are just the beginning of the architecture that is going on.
