Players to Watch: Mylan Graham looks like more than a Spring Game phenom

Spring Game excellence can be deceiving, but all signs point to the second-year wide receiver starting to blossom.
From now until preseason camp starts in August, Land-Grant Holy Land will be writing articles around a different theme every week. This week is all about the Buckeyes we expect to excel this season. You can catch up on all of the Theme Week content here and all our “Players to Watch” articles here.
Wide receiver Mylan Graham arrived at Ohio State in the summer of 2024, and has quickly built a reputation as a player who will excel at the collegiate level. The sophomore out of New Haven, Indiana didn’t catch a pass last season, but he didn’t have to. The Buckeyes have been loaded at the position, allowing Graham to learn the offense and settle into college life and Mickey Marotti’s weight-training program.
Had Graham been able to enroll early and participate in spring practice in 2024, he might have made a slightly bigger impact, but with Jeremiah Smith, Emeka Egbuka, Carnell Tate, and Brandon Inniss on the squad, Ryan Day had the luxury of slow-playing the freshman in 2024.
A five-star prospect, Graham was ranked as high as the No. 14 overall player and No. 5 wide receiver in last year’s class. He built his reputation with more than 2,000 career receiving yards and 21 touchdowns as a prep player, including 1,149 yards receiving in his junior year to go along with 13 touchdowns on 48 receptions. He averaged more than 80 receiving yards per game his final season.
His 2023 highlight reel shows all the tools, including his speed and ability in the open field.
Graham has the attention of his current and former teammates, and considering the Buckeyes are coming off a national championship, that’s a good indicator that he’s got a bright future. Another positive sign was his performance in the 2025 Ohio State Spring Game, in which Graham caught four passes for 104 yards.
That included a sensational 51-yard touchdown catch and run thrown by Lincoln Kienholz, showing off Graham’s playmaking ability. Only a couple of excellent defensive plays kept Graham from having an even bigger performance on April 12 against his fellow Buckeyes.
Players like NFL-bound former Buckeye cornerback Denzel Burke have been talking about the young receiver as though it’s a matter of when, not if, Graham will become another Zone 6 star under Brian Hartline’s tutelage.
“He could be a great player. He’s quick, good hands, good catch radius, good releases,” Burke said after battling him in practice daily. “I’m excited for him and his future.”
With his first full offseason now under his belt, Graham will enter preseason camp with an opportunity to make his case for snaps in 2025. He will push those ahead of him to be better and could find himself spelling the likes of Tate and Inniss with the first team.
His confidence level will be high after his performance in the Spring Game, and by now he’ll have learned a lot about pre-snap and post-snap reads — often the biggest adjustment receivers have to make between high school and college — from Hartline, Day, and the more veteran receivers on the team.
Graham has the talent and tools to get meaningful snaps in 2025, but even if those entering the fall ahead of him on the depth chart don’t falter, he’ll be one of the first options off the bench.
In a position group where everyone is a player to watch, I’m eager to see how Graham’s career blossoms.

You’re Nuts: Which Ohio State player is a sleeper to be a 2026 first-round pick?

Your (almost) daily dose of good-natured, Ohio State banter.
From now until preseason camp starts in August, Land-Grant Holy Land will be writing articles around a different theme every week. This week is all about the Buckeyes we expect to excel this season. You can catch up on all of the Theme Week content here and all our “Players to Watch” articles here.
At this year’s NFL Draft, Ohio State saw 14 players selected, tying a school record. Had one other Ohio State player been taken in the seven-round event, the Buckeyes would have tied Georgia for the most players picked in a single draft. Emeka Egbuka was the first Buckeye selected when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers took the wide receiver with the 19th pick in the first round. Overall, four Ohio State players were selected in the first round of this year’s draft, marking the 10th straight season in which at least one Buckeye was drafted in the first round.
Now that the 2025 NFL Draft has been completed, it’s time to start looking towards the 2026 NFL Draft! To anyone who has watched even a little bit of Ohio State football, it’s pretty obvious that safety Caleb Downs is going to be a top-10 pick next year when he is eligible to enter the draft. Who might join Downs in the first round next April isn’t quite as obvious. If recent trends continue, smart money would be on Carnell Tate since the Buckeyes have had five wide receivers selected in the first round over the last four drafts.
Today, as part of our Players to Watch Week, we want to know what Ohio State “sleeper” you are targeting to be selected in the first round next year. Since Downs is consistently mocked in the top 10 of next year’s draft, he wouldn’t qualify as a sleeper. The rest of the team is fair game, though.
Maybe you see Tate flourishing as he steps into a bigger role, or Sonny Styles is primed to take another big step in his second season as a starter at linebacker. Since the Buckeyes are loaded with talent, there are plenty of options that could be choices here.
The name might not be familiar to Ohio State fans quite yet, but they’ll certainly know it by the fall. Since arriving at Rice in 2021, the offensive tackle has started 34 games for the Owls. Onianwa started 25 games at right tackle from 2021 to 2023 before moving to left tackle last season. Expect Onianwa to take over at left tackle for Ohio State this fall, while Minnesota transfer Phillip Daniels is slated to be the starter at right tackle for the Buckeyes.
What makes Onianwa an intriguing prospect is that he is massive, even by offensive tackle standards. The former three-star recruit measures 6-6 and tips the scales at 345 pounds. It’s obvious that Onianwa is getting better each year on the field since Ohio State wouldn’t have targeted him in the transfer portal if they didn’t think he could step right in and be productive on an offensive line that will be tasked with protecting a new starting quarterback, as well as trying to clear running lanes for a backfield that will be trying to replace TreVeyon Henderson and Quinshon Judkins.
I feel like Onianwa could follow the same type of path that Josh Simmons did to get to the NFL. Simmons started his career at San Diego State before transferring to Ohio State, where he would start in 2023 and 2024 at right tackle before suffering a season-ending knee injury against Oregon in October. Despite the injury concerns, Simmons went on to be taken at the end of the first round by the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday. Onianwa should immediately step in to be the starter at left tackle, which will allow scouts to get a good look at him when the Buckeyes host Texas in the season opener.
I’m not claiming to be some draft guru, I just think Onianwa has the tools and size that will make him attractive to NFL teams. While Onianwa isn’t mocked in the first round of the 2026 draft, a lot can change in a year. Cam Ward wasn’t projected to be the top pick in the draft last year at this time, and nobody was expecting Quinn Ewers to drop to the seventh round. I think by the time Ohio State’s 2025 season ends and draft talk starts heating up, Onianwa will be gaining momentum to be a first-round pick.
Is Sonny a sleeper? I mean, he was a five-star prospect coming out of high school. He was the No. 1 safety in the 2022 recruiting class. His father played six seasons in the NFL and won a Super Bowl. So, there is probably no one in or around the college football world who was ever truly sleeping on Sonny Styles.
And yet, things really didn’t go as planned for Sonny. After reclassifying, he recorded only nine tackles as a true freshman, playing nearly the entire regular season as a 17-year-old. As a sophomore, he earned a spot as a starting safety, notching 53 tackles. Despite the fact that he was fairly successful in Jim Knowles' safety-focused defense, at 6-foot-4 and 235 pounds, his body was much more in line with that of a linebacker.
So, in his third season, he moved to LB where he started alongside veteran Cody Simon. Styles started the season with the green dot on his helmet, indicating that he could hear the coaches through the radio in his helmet; meaning that he would be making the calls for the defense. However, as the season progressed, that responsibility eventually fell to Simon.
Despite the change, Styles earned second-team all-conference honors and finished the national championship run with exactly 100 tackles. I have to imagine that in the world that the Styles family initially envisioned, Sonny would have already been doing OTAs with an NFL team at this point. A prized recruit doesn’t usually reclassify with the intention of playing four years of college football, yet Sonny will be back in the scarlet and gray this fall as one of the veteran most players on the defense.
Given the athleticism that Styles has always shown, it will be interesting to see him with a full year of playing time as a linebacker under his belt. Last year, despite his stats and accolades, he was only the 16th-rated OSU defender from Pro Football Focus, and the fourth-rated linebacker behind Simon, Reese, and backup Gabe Powers; but he only played 29 snaps on the season, so that comparison isn’t exactly fair.
Nonetheless, everyone has always known what Styles could do from an athletic standpoint, and now that he has a year’s worth of experience to couple with that physical prowess, I think that come next spring, we could finally see Sonny in the first round, where we always thought he would be... just a year later than anticipated. Although, had he remained a member of the 2023 class, as he originally planned, 2026 would have been the earliest he could have entered the NFL Draft anyway, so no harm, no foul, I suppose.

Pair of 2026 OL put Ohio State in top schools, Buckeyes complete massive visitor weekend

2026 five-star OT Felix Ojo | via @Hayesfawcett3 on Twitter
Recruiting is in full swing in Columbus.
Columbus, Ohio was the place to be this past weekend, as a large number of highly regarded prospects flocked to Ohio State’s campus for both official and unofficial visits to kick off what should be a loaded summer of recruiting for the Buckeyes.
Before we get to that, Ryan Day’s group — and more specifically Tyler Bowen’s position group — got things started on Friday as a pair of 2026 offensive lineman cut down their lists and included Ohio State among their top schools.
First up, offensive tackle Chancellor Campbell narrowed his focus from over two dozen scholarship offers down to a final five, with the Buckeyes among the smaller group alongside Colorado, Florida, Georgia and Penn State.
A Florida native, Campbell is currently listed as the No. 37 OT and No. 55 player out of the Sunshine State in the 2026 class, per 247Sports’ rankings. A three-star prospect, Campbell is listed at a whopping 6-foot-8, 295 pounds, and is a multi-sport athlete, competing on the hardwood as well for Lakewood High School. Bowen will get a chance to further impress the big-bodied tackle during his official visit to Columbus, which is scheduled for June 13.
Elsewhere, another Florida native offensive lineman gave an update on his recruitment as four-star IOL Micah Smith also cut his list down on Friday afternoon, trimming things to a final six schools which included the Buckeyes in addition to Alabama, Illinois, South Carolina, Tennessee and UCLA.
Smith ranks as the No. 10 IOL and No. 165 player nationally per the 247Sports Composite, in addition to the No. 23 prospect in Florida in this cycle. The 6-foot-5.5, 325-pound lineman has made official visits to both Illinois and UCLA, and with a commitment date set for June 7, it looks like the Bruins will ultimately be the destination for Smith.
Even if Smith chooses the West Coast school over Ohio State, there is a ton of time between now and when pen meets paper in December. Look for Bowen and the Buckeyes to remain active in this recruitment and attempt to get Smith on campus sometime before the door is officially closed.
As previously mentioned, this past weekend functioned as Ohio State’s first big recruiting weekend of the summer, with a number of high four and five-star prospects in attendance over the past few days. Below are some of the big names in the 2026 class who made the trek to Columbus.
All rankings are via the 247Sports Composite.

Before we get to that, Ryan Day’s group — and more specifically Tyler Bowen’s position group — got things started on Friday as a pair of 2026 offensive lineman cut down their lists and included Ohio State among their top schools.
First up, offensive tackle Chancellor Campbell narrowed his focus from over two dozen scholarship offers down to a final five, with the Buckeyes among the smaller group alongside Colorado, Florida, Georgia and Penn State.

A Florida native, Campbell is currently listed as the No. 37 OT and No. 55 player out of the Sunshine State in the 2026 class, per 247Sports’ rankings. A three-star prospect, Campbell is listed at a whopping 6-foot-8, 295 pounds, and is a multi-sport athlete, competing on the hardwood as well for Lakewood High School. Bowen will get a chance to further impress the big-bodied tackle during his official visit to Columbus, which is scheduled for June 13.
Elsewhere, another Florida native offensive lineman gave an update on his recruitment as four-star IOL Micah Smith also cut his list down on Friday afternoon, trimming things to a final six schools which included the Buckeyes in addition to Alabama, Illinois, South Carolina, Tennessee and UCLA.

Smith ranks as the No. 10 IOL and No. 165 player nationally per the 247Sports Composite, in addition to the No. 23 prospect in Florida in this cycle. The 6-foot-5.5, 325-pound lineman has made official visits to both Illinois and UCLA, and with a commitment date set for June 7, it looks like the Bruins will ultimately be the destination for Smith.
Even if Smith chooses the West Coast school over Ohio State, there is a ton of time between now and when pen meets paper in December. Look for Bowen and the Buckeyes to remain active in this recruitment and attempt to get Smith on campus sometime before the door is officially closed.
