Analysis by Shawn Childs, from his 2026 guide — his words, unedited.
Over his final two seasons at North Dakota State, Lance gained over 1,000 yards each year (75/1,071/17 and 51/1,079/8). He comes to the NFL at 6’3” and 205 lbs. with elite speed (4.34 40-yard dash). His release and short-area separation won’t create early advantages in his route running. Lance brings an edge to the deep passing game with a good feel for creating open catch windows. He is the younger brother of Trey Lance.
