One of the most compelling juniors on the 2026 Big Board also happens to be one of the most versatile, no surprises there. Zimmerman’s Noah Schmit Noah Schmit 6'3" | 180 lbs | LB/WR Zimmerman | 2026 State MN is a part of the Thunder’s outstanding 2026 class that we have long been hyping up on PRzMN, possessing ridiculous upside at a verified 6’3, 180+ with an absurd amount of room to fill in. Schmit has long been an eye-catcher athletically, showing up and showing out as a tester at multiple exposure points we’ve seen on the LB/WR, most recently a 31″ vert, 4.72 40, 4.44 shuttle, and 8’11 broad at the UWRF Mega Camp last summer. The tape is fun too, as he was named a Hardest Hitter in Minnesota’s 2026 class last year as a sophomore, and he goes into his senior year as a rising three-year starter with a ton of varsity reps, production, and utility as a rare LB/WR combo.

As a WR, Schmit is a tall, long, fast, and tough pass catcher with a bigger catch radius, and he breaks his routes off smoothly and does a good job of working back to the football. Schmit can reel in contested catches through tight coverage, absorbing big hits and keeping the rock secured through handsy and sometimes physical DBs, and he accelerates out of his cuts and past man coverage. Plus, the 180 lber. owns burners after the catch and can win vertically. Defensively, as an OLB who can play both as a standup edge on the LOS and as an off-ball ‘backer on the perimeter, Schmit can create disruption as a pass rusher thanks to his good get-off, noticeable closing speed, and comfortability tackling in space. However, he also uses his length to break up passes and stick his arms into passing lanes in the middle of the second level. Plus, the 180 lber. naturally rips at the ball with his free arm to create turnovers. I think his future is best served on defense at the college level, but this kind of versatility is a massive asset at the prep level. Schmit visited Augustana in October for a gameday experience and more visits are coming!
