Jakobe Thomas 2026 NFL Draft Profile | S from Miami (FL)
Scouting Report
Jakobe Thomas is an aggressive and versatile safety from Miami who brings a physical downhill presence and legitimate playmaking ability to all three levels of the defense. At 6-2 and 200 pounds Thomas is a fifth-year senior who transferred from Middle Tennessee State to Tennessee before landing at Miami where he posted career highs in tackles for loss sacks forced fumbles and recovered fumbles in his final season. He is weaponized as a blitzer with elite ability to get into the backfield and cause havoc using his length and closing speed to pressure quarterbacks consistently. His reactive athleticism is constantly on display as his eyes stay locked on the quarterback in robber alignments showing ball skills and good range from the middle of the field. Thomas has the proper body type and stickiness to man up against tight ends providing functional versatility with nickel upside. He packs a punch as a hitter triggering downhill with consistent energy and aggression that sets the tone for the defense. However Thomas keys on the quarterback's eyes to a fault which can pull him away from his responsibilities as a split or single-high safety. His aggressive mindset hurts him in space as he too often leaves his feet and grasps at air rather than wrapping up with controlled tackling technique. His pursuit angles need refinement and he can be a step behind the play while his processing catches up. He takes longer to trigger on route combinations. Bleacher Report graded him 7.4 ranking him 71st overall and S7 comparing him to Billy Bowman Jr and Richie Grant as a Minkah Fitzpatrick-lite prospect.
