Mondon (6’2/224) is yet another in a long line of five-star recruits that Georgia HC Kirby Smart has molded into NFL prospects. He cut his teeth as a freshman reserve in 2021 before slotting right into a starting role the following year, leading the National Champion Bulldogs with 76 tackles to go with 8.0 TFLs. Mondon had his finest season in 2024 setting career highs with a 76th-percentile run defense grade, 74th-percentile pass rush grade and 72nd percentile overall defensive grade. Though he only did two events at the Combine, his 4.58s 40-yard dash is a 91st percentile mark while his incredible 10’10” broad jump ranked in the 99th-percentile for the position. One of the most efficient tacklers in the 2025 linebacker group, Mondon recorded a sterling 5.2-percent missed tackle rate, snuffing out ball carriers once his vice grip-hands and fastened on his prey. Tremendous burst once he triggers, but he’s small for the position and has had some missteps picking the wrong gaps to fill. He missed at least two games in each of the last three years due to injury and had foot surgery this spring. Mondon is an undersized, but productive linebacker whose athleticism should help him carve out a rotational niche.
