Beau Gardner 2026 NFL Draft Profile | LS from Georgia
Scouting Report
Beau Gardner is the top long snapper prospect in the 2026 NFL Draft class after winning the Patrick Mannelly Award in 2025, which is given to the nation best long snapper. The 6-5 and 250-pound sixth-year player spent his first four seasons at UCLA before transferring to Georgia, where he started every game over his final two seasons and played near-perfect football. Gardner is a big-bodied snapper who plays with a strong base and has been incredibly consistent throughout his time with the Bulldogs. He has been a significant part of Peyton Woodring development into an All-Conference kicker. Scouts will see above-average snap speed and a catchable ball every time out with Gardner. He also shows persistent effort in coverage and has the size to lay a hit if needed. Mel Kiper ranks him as the third-best long snapper in the 2026 class. Gardner was invited to the 2026 NFL Scouting Combine, which is a notable achievement for a long snapper.
