SAN ANTONIO, Texas — The annual All-American Bowl Combine returned to the Alamodome on Friday.

Talented players from the 2025, 2026 and 2027 recruiting classes and beyond showed out in the Alamodome during Friday’s National Combine. On3 was on hand for all of the action throughout. Here are On3 National Recruiting Analyst Sam Spiegelman’s top performers:

On3 MVP: WR Jaime Ffrench – Alabama commit

Five-star Alabama-committed 2025 WR Jaime Ffrench put forward a statement performance inside of the Alamodome during Friday’s annual combine. Ffrench was terrific on his releases and even better running crisp routes and making difficult contested catches in various parts of the field during the workout. Ffrench was outstanding maneuvering outside the numbers — on deep routes and out-breaking routes — and made a handful of tough combat catches against tight coverage. He was very polished making plays in very tight spaces on the field. He has fantastic feet, excellent hands, and is also extremely dangerous making plays in the middle of the field.

2. IOL Demetri Manning

Six-foot-seven, 340-pound 2025 Bellevue (Wash.) IOL Demetri Manning is an eye-catcher right off the bus and plays equally as strong as he appears. Manning consistently delivered impactful initial hits and overpowered defenders more often than not. For such a big-framed offensive lineman, Manning has good feet and plays with a strong base and unsurprisingly, has excellent length at his disposal.

3. DL Ka’Mori Moore – Oklahoma commit

2025 Oklahoma-committed DL Ka’Mori Moore was nifty working off the edge and also taking reps on the inside, where he is an absolute mismatch. Moore showcased a handful of pass-rush moves, including an impressive swim, as well as excellent bend from a 6-foot-2, 310-pound DL. Moore had a strong showing inside the Alamodome on Friday, and fits the mold of an athletic 3-technique that can provide some juice from the interior.

4. QB Frans Steyn

2026 San Marcos (Texas) QB Buck Steyn was absolutely brilliant in a very talented group of quarterbacks in San Antonio. Steyn, a local product from right down the highway here in Texas, threw with excellent touch and was on target consistently throughout the day’s initial workout. In the 1-on-1 setting, Steyn anticipated throws and was on time throwing strikes to receivers at each level of the field. Steyn threw a fantastic deep ball and the 6-foot-4, 190-pounder was equally as sharp operating in the middle of the field. The soon-to-be junior from Texas is the nephew of Ty Detmer and Koy Detmer.

5. WR Kamryn Jones

2025 three-star Bellflower (Calif.) St. John Bosco WR Kamryn Jones was among the top playmakers in the early session showcasing the ability to get downfield with ease ability. At 6-foot-3 and 170 pounds, Jones was able to separate with ease. He was explosive off the line and showcased fantastic polish on the back end of plays. Jones has superb feet and was among the top playmakers working on the perimeter in Friday’s Combine. He is a stock-up candidate for sure.

6. WR Adrian Wilson – Oregon commit

Four-star wide receiver Adrian Wilson was among the top pass-catchers in attendance. The Oregon-committed blue-chipper is great competing for jump-balls and is a massive mismatch in jump-ball situations. Wilson was at his best during Friday’s combine working the middle of the field and making contested catches and tight windows consistently. and making it look effortless at 6-foot-3 and 185 pounds coming off a very productive junior season, Wilson is a routine source of highlight-reel grabs.

7. EDGE Elijah Golden

2026 King George (Va.) IMG Academy EDGE Elijah Golden was a force working off the edge during the combine. The 6-foot-4, 240-pounder fits the body type of a true DE, and plays downhill with great bend. Golden was nasty using his hands during 1-on-1s and can turn the corner in a hurry. The soon-to-be junior has a fantastic get-off. He seems primed for a breakout season on IMG’s defensive front.

8. CB Jacob Whitehead

2027 Jacob Whitehead cracked the list as a freshman. The 6-foot-2, 170-pound cornerback from Inglewood (Calif.) High School was brilliant in coverage during the initial session. Whitehead turns and runs seamlessly and was excellent breaking on the ball on routes underneath. Whitehead, who has already landed Power 5 overtures from college football powers like Miami, Auburn, Nebraska and Oregon, is a name to remember for the Class of 2027.

9. IOL Isaac Sowells Jr.

2025 three-star Louisville (Ken.) Male IOL Isaac Sowells was a force working inside at center during Friday’s combine. The top-60 interior in next year’s class plays with a ferocity, and it showed during the Final 5. Sowells is very agile and has fantastic feet; he plays with great leverage and showcased some of his natural power tossing a defender late in the competition.

10. WR Jabari Mack

2026 Destrehan (La.) WR Jabari Mack has already established himself as one of the top playmakers in his class, and that includes at this event a year ago. The 6-foot-2, 190-pounder from The Boot returned to the Alamodome bigger, stronger and faster, with an excellent release off the line. Mack made several impressive grabs — none better than the one-hander along the sidelines with a defender in tight coverage. Mack was able to separate on routes downfield and also play through contact in a strong effort Friday.

Additional notes:

  • 2025 Katy (Texas) Paetow EDGE Carmello Brooks had arguably the quickest get-off of any edge defender in the Combine on Friday. The 6-foot-3, 250-pounder flies off the ball and is very bendy turning the corner.
  • 2025 Power Springs (Ga.) Hillgrove DB Daniel Okonkwu was sticky in coverage and disciplined at that. The 6-foot, 185-pounder also made several strong plays at the ball with ease.
  • North Carolina-committed 2025 QB Bryce Baker was another passer that impressed on Friday. Baker has a smooth delivery and was very accurate throwing downfield on routes in the short field. At 6-foot-3 and 190 pounds, the future Tar Heel is very twitchy throwing the rock.
  • 2025 Kentfield (Calif.) MarinCatholic TE Braiden Bachich-Dixon had a strong case as the best TE in the Combine overall. The 6-foot-4, 205-pounder from the Left Coast was phenomenal beating press coverage and working in the middle of the field, making combat catches. Bachich-Dixon plays strong and also has a finesse factor to his game. He separates well and was very productive manuevering downfield all afternoon.
  • 2026 Spring (Texas) Klein IOL Nicolas Robertson plays with strong anchor and has long arms, and quickly made an impressive at center during the Combine workout. As an interior OL, Robertson already is light on his feet and was consistently winning reps during the afternoon session.
  • 2026 Fort Bend (Texas) Ridge Point QB Romin Seymour was another returning standout back in the Alamodome from last year’s competition. The 6-foot-4, 175-poundersoon-to-be junior shines in these settings. He throws a pretty deep ball with a very smooth delivery.
  • 2025 Springfield (Ohio) WR Jamil Miller was one of the most electric wide receivers in attendance. The 6-foot-3, 180-pounder plays tough and made some impressive catches downfield and operating outside the numbers.
  • Belleville (Ill.) Althoff four-star ATH Dierre Hill was really sharp during positional drills and 1-on-1 reps. The 5-foot-10, 180-pounder moves well and was consistently on top during competition.
  • Six-foot-four, 190-pound Dripping Springs (Texas) 2025 WR/TE Cooper Reid was a mismatch working in the middle of the field. Reid is a massive target for his quarterback and has excellent hands. He made several impressive grabs in the 1-on-1 setting.
  • 2026 Houston (Texas) Legacy QB Keisean Henderson showed off his cannon during the late session on Friday. The 6-foot-4, 175-pounder delivered some big-time throws on a rope in 1-on-1s. He can put it anywhere on the field and has the athletic traits to match.
  • 2026 Jackson (Tenn.) Trinity RB Lekhy Thompkins passes the eye test at 6-foot-2 and 225 pounds. Thompkins worked out at both running back and linebacker and has a frame geared for both roles. The jumbo-athlete moves well.
