Caleb Banks

Mentioned in 8 analyzed podcast episodes across 6 shows

A Florida defensive lineman and 2026 NFL Draft prospect standing 6'6" and 327 lbs, known for elite athletic testing (98th percentile relative athletic score) and an exceptional 7+ foot wingspan—the longest recorded since 1999. Banks has drawn significant pre-draft attention despite concerns about arm length measurements and a foot injury he overcame late in his college season. He transferred to Florida via the portal from Louisville and is projected as a likely first-round defensive tackle selection.
