Explosive, versatile WR with big-play juice and a reliable special-teams track record
Eli Green is a useful fit for a program that wants speed, versatility, and toughness in the receiver room: after arriving at Iowa State from North Dakota State, he produced 11 catches for 123 yards in the 2024 season and has shown value as a gadget player, kickoff returner, and occasional runner. His standout traits are quick acceleration, strong route-running for short and intermediate areas, and enough toughness to handle contact; his 2026 EA ratings also flag him as a strong athlete with an 88 speed and 91 acceleration profile. He has been praised for accountability and consistency, which helps explain why coaches trust him in multiple roles.[10][13][3]
