As the 2025 NFL regular season draws near, people everywhere are making predictions for how each team will do in the upcoming year. What not enough people are talking about, though, is the forthcoming class of prospects for the 2026 NFL Draft.
Fans and analysts alike have their opinions on how each NFL team will perform this year. For those who aren’t projected to do very well, they may look to the draft as some form of comfort as they brace for a difficult season. The draft order comes from PFSN’s 2026 NFL Mock Draft Simulator, which you can use to create your mocks.
1) New Orleans Saints
Garrett Nussmeier, QB, LSU
The New Orleans Saints have a handful of glaring needs heading into the 2025 season. If they land with the No. 1 overall pick, though, a quarterback feels like a likely direction. That’s what they do in this 2026 NFL Mock Draft.
Garrett Nussmeier does all the fundamentals well: he’s accurate, smart, and calm under pressure. His pocket presence and decision-making stand out. LSU has quietly become a factory for pro-ready quarterbacks, and Nussmeier could be next in line. Plus, it doesn’t hurt that his father is Doug Nussmeier, the Saints’ current offensive coordinator.
2) New York Jets
Arch Manning, QB, Texas
The New York Jets signed Justin Fields to a two-year deal, but if they finish second-to-last in 2025, it likely means he didn’t pan out — putting them right back in the market for a long-term quarterback.
There’s no guarantee that Arch Manning will declare for the 2026 NFL Draft. He’s a massive unknown at this stage, having only started in two games. But he has an impressive arm, makes smart decisions in the pocket, reads the field well, and offers better athleticism than either of his famous uncles, Peyton and Eli.
3) Cleveland Browns
Cade Klubnik, QB, Clemson
Although the Cleveland Browns drafted Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders in 2025, neither came with the kind of draft capital that typically signals a long-term commitment. If Cleveland finishes with a poor record, they’d be smart to take a swing at a true franchise QB.
Cade Klubnik made considerable strides in 2024. He’s an accurate passer with good poise in the pocket and underrated mobility. His consistency, rhythm, and decision-making all give him a high floor and project him as a potential long-term starter in the NFL.
4) Tennessee Titans
Caleb Downs, S, Ohio State
With Cam Ward now under center, the Tennessee Titans need to take full advantage of his rookie contract window by building a strong foundation around him. With this selection, they take arguably the best overall player in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Caleb Downs is a big, brilliant defensive back with elite range, sharp processing, and positional versatility. Downs is effective in coverage, disruptive against the run, and brings strong ball skills and effort as a downhill tackler. He has all the makings of a future All-Pro if he translates his level of dominance into the pros.
5) New York Giants
Francis Mauigoa, OT, Miami (FL)
The New York Giants made some big swings in 2025 with Abdul Carter and Jaxson Dart, but they still have work to do. In this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, they give Dart an offensive lineman with building-block potential as they look to complete the final stages of their rebuild.
Francis Mauigoa is a dominant presence in the trenches. He plays with a broad base, refined hands, and smooth footwork in pass sets. His physicality should translate well to the NFL level. If Mauigoa declares, there’s a good chance he’s a first-round lock.

6) Las Vegas Raiders
Spencer Fano, OT, Utah
The Las Vegas Raiders would be best served going with the true best player available in this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, as they currently lack a ton of blue-chip talent on their roster. Their offense is trending in the right direction, but they could still use some more help up front.
Spencer Fano offers the kind of versatility NFL teams covet, with the ability to thrive at either tackle or guard. He’s physical, agile, and polished — already standing out in my early 2026 evaluations as one of the most coordinated offensive linemen in the class.
7) Carolina Panthers
T.J. Parker, EDGE, Clemson
The Carolina Panthers seem to be a franchise on the upswing, but they’re still a few pieces away from contention. While an offensive lineman is an enticing option here at No. 7, they go with the best player on their board and secure a potential blue-chip pass rusher.
T.J. Parker would give them an edge rusher with the upside to be their best pass rusher since Brian Burns. He had 11 sacks as a sophomore and flashed great burst, bend, and lower-body strength. If Parker continues to produce at the level he did in 2024, he’ll be a top pick.
8) Indianapolis Colts
Fernando Mendoza, QB, Indiana
Should the Indianapolis Colts finish with a top-10 pick in 2026, an argument could be made that they look to draft a quarterback to move on from Anthony Richardson. Even if they perform well with Daniel Jones as their starter, they should do their homework on the quarterback draft class. And in this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, they do just that.
There’s a lot to like with Fernando Mendoza, as he’s a tall quarterback with a strong arm who can move a bit. His elasticity in his throwing motion and velocity behind his throws are NFL starting-caliber. With some accuracy consistency, he could be a serious name to watch in the pros.
9) Cleveland Browns (via Jaguars)
Jordyn Tyson, WR, Arizona State
After securing their quarterback of the future earlier in this mock, the Browns can turn to the extra first-round pick they landed from Jacksonville in the Travis Hunter trade to give Klubnik a reliable weapon to throw to.
Jordyn Tyson is a great YAC receiver thanks to his agility and ball-carrier vision. He’s also explosive coming out of his breaks and exploits leverage spots well against man coverage by adjusting his stems.
10) Miami Dolphins
Kadyn Proctor, OT, Alabama
Going into 2025, the Miami Dolphins’ offensive line is a concern, particularly at tackle. To extend Tua Tagovailoa’s shelf life amidst his injury issues, protecting him is going to be crucial.
At 6’7″, Kadyn Proctor fits the bill. He’s a massive presence with long arms and powerful hands. He’s not just big; he’s coordinated and technically sharp, able to handle power and maintain anchor. He checks every box for an offensive tackle you’d use a top-ten pick on.
11) Los Angeles Rams (via Falcons)
Jermod McCoy, CB, Tennessee
As talented as the Los Angeles Rams’ defensive line is, their secondary projects as a potential weakness in 2025. They didn’t make any significant moves to the group this offseason, but they could very well choose to address it heavily in 2026.
Jermod McCoy has CB1 upside. He snagged four interceptions in 2024 and showed quick feet, hip fluidity, and strong closing ability. He’s long, competitive, and capable of handling field-side and boundary responsibilities.
12) Seattle Seahawks
Jeremiyah Love, RB, Notre Dame
The Seattle Seahawks are slated to lose Kenneth Walker in free agency if they don’t sign him to a contract extension. In this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, they prepare for life after him and draft another stud running back to pair with Zach Charbonnet.
Jeremiyah Love isn’t far from the Ashton Jeanty comparisons you’ll hear in this class. He’s a dynamic, three-down runner with impressive burst, vision, balance, and fluid cuts. He drops out of the top ten of our 2026 NFL Mock Draft due to positional value, but he’s a top-ten overall prospect in this class.
13) Arizona Cardinals
Keldric Faulk, EDGE, Auburn
I’m a big fan of what the Arizona Cardinals did this offseason to address their defensive line. Players like Josh Sweat and Walter Nolen should be solid long-term additions, but they could still benefit from additional investment if the value is correct.
Keldric Faulk is a rare athlete at 6’6″ and 288 pounds. Coming off a seven-sack sophomore season, he has elite size, power, and excellent athleticism for his frame. His burst off the ball and backside pursuit range are impressive, giving him every tool to be a dominant defensive force.
14) New England Patriots
Peter Woods, DT, Clemson
The New England Patriots made some wise investments for their defensive line this offseason, bringing in Milton Williams and Harold Landry. In this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, they add another defensive tackle to take their unit to the next level.
A twitchy, high-IQ defender with violent hands and pass-rush counters, Peter Woods can control gaps and make an impact inside. He’s a potential game-changer on the defensive line. Blocking him and Williams along the same interior defense would be a difficult task for the opposition.
15) Dallas Cowboys
Anthony Hill Jr., LB, Texas
The Dallas Cowboys were pretty active in addressing their offensive unit in the 2025 offseason. But in 2026, it wouldn’t be surprising if they turned their focus towards the defense, especially if there’s good enough value early in the draft.
Anthony Hill Jr. put up 113 tackles, 17 tackles for loss (actually 16.5 TFL), and eight sacks in 2024. He’s explosive, tough, and rangy, and carries significant blitz upside. Whether it’s as a MIKE or a WILL, I think he develops into a quality starter.
16) Chicago Bears
Rueben Bain Jr., EDGE, Miami (FL)
Though the Chicago Bears signed Dayo Odeyingbo this past free agency, he’s relatively unproven as a consistent high-end producer in the NFL. Montez Sweat is coming off a down year in 2024 after making the Pro Bowl in 2023, too. This could keep them in the market for an edge rusher in the 2026 draft.
Bain plays with outstanding pad level, offers versatility by kicking inside when needed, and consistently finds ways to disrupt plays. He’s a powerhouse off the edge who combines brute strength with explosive short-area quickness and a non-stop motor. He’s the type of impact pass rusher who can become the cornerstone of a defense.
17) Pittsburgh Steelers
Caleb Lomu, OT, Utah
It seems like a safe bet that the Pittsburgh Steelers will draft a quarterback in 2026. But in our 2026 NFL Mock Draft, the value isn’t there for them to take one at No. 17. As a result, they turn towards their offensive line for a wise investment up front.
Caleb Lomu is a smooth offensive tackle who allowed only two sacks in 425 pass-blocking snaps in 2024. His hand timing, balance, and range in pass protection make him a top tackle prospect, especially if he continues to bulk up.
18) Minnesota Vikings
Dillon Thieneman, S, Oregon
The Minnesota Vikings have a loaded front seven, but the secondary leaves much to be desired. If there’s one thing that could hold back their defense in 2025, it’s inconsistent play from their cornerbacks and safeties.
Dillon Thieneman’s production dipped in 2024, but his transfer to Oregon could help him return to form. As a freshman at Purdue, he had six interceptions and showed elite range. He projects as a rangy, high-upside free safety with playmaker potential.
19) Houston Texans
Cayden Green, OG, Missouri
The Houston Texans struggled in their OL play in 2024. After trading their best lineman, Laremy Tunsil, to Washington this offseason, it’s hard to believe the unit will improve much, if at all, in 2025.
Missouri had Armand Membou selected in the first round this year, and don’t be surprised if they have another offensive lineman go in Round 1 in 2026 with Cayden Green. He has the power, athleticism, and hand placement to be a long-term starting guard in the NFL.
20) Denver Broncos
Caleb Banks, DT, Florida
The Denver Broncos were active in addressing their defense this offseason, bringing in Dre Greenlaw and Talanoa Hufanga in free agency and drafting Jahdae Barron. Another explosive defensive lineman alongside Zach Allen could help their pass rush become borderline unblockable next year.
A 6’6″, 325-pound interior lineman with more pass-rush juice than expected for a player his size, Caleb Banks has a very high ceiling at the NFL level. He’s powerful and disruptive, making him a solid fit for Denver’s defensive line rotation.
21) Los Angeles Chargers
LT Overton, EDGE, Alabama
The Los Angeles Chargers addressed most of their needs throughout the 2025 NFL offseason. But with Khalil Mack only on a one-year deal, they could look to find a long-term option for their defensive line off the edge.
LT Overton is a powerful, high-motivated defensive lineman with versatility along the front lines. He should defend the run well early on and has the size-adjusted quickness to project well rushing the passer.
22) Tampa Bay Buccaneers
C.J. Allen, LB, Georgia
Lavonte David has been the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ defensive cornerstone for well over a decade, but he could use a running mate and/or eventual replacement when he calls it a career.
With impressive speed, agility, instincts against the run, and consistent tackling form, CJ Allen is a true rangy linebacker with elite range as a tackler. He has the potential to be one of the top linebackers in the league in due time.
23) Los Angeles Rams
LaNorris Sellers, QB, South Carolina
Matthew Stafford is still playing at a high level, but he’s 37 years old. The Los Angeles Rams have two first-round picks in 2026, and it might be a good idea for them to invest in Stafford’s eventual successor at quarterback with one of them.
LaNorris Sellers isn’t the consensus QB1 in the 2026 class, but he might have the best physical tools of any quarterback in college football. Sellers is strong-armed, athletic, tough to sack, and more accurate than he gets credit for. If there’s any head coach in the NFL who could fix his inconsistencies, it’s Sean McVay.
24) San Francisco 49ers
Drew Shelton, OT/OG, Penn State
The San Francisco 49ers have more questions than answers along their offensive line. Even with Trent Williams being an ageless wonder and Dominick Puni coming off a strong rookie year, they’re still a few pieces away.
Though Drew Shelton is a tackle at Penn State, I think he’s better suited at guard in my early draft evaluations. He’s a powerful lineman who’s tough and understands how to time and place his strikes to win with leverage at the point of attack.
25) Cincinnati Bengals
Avieon Terrell, CB, Clemson
With Tee Higgins, Ja’Marr Chase, and Joe Burrow all locked up, the Cincinnati Bengals should focus on rebuilding the defense next offseason. In the first round of our 2026 NFL Mock Draft, they add a potential difference maker to their secondary.
Avieon Terrell, the younger brother of Atlanta Falcons CB A.J. Terrell Jr., is a sharp cover man with excellent speed and short-area burst. In 2024, he notched two interceptions and 12 pass breakups for Clemson.
26) Dallas Cowboys (via Packers)
Dani Dennis-Sutton, EDGE, Penn State
In the wake of the Cowboys trading Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers, there’s a massive need for pass-rushing talent on Dallas’ roster. This 2026 NFL Mock Draft sees them go back to the Penn State well for some investment off the edge.
Dani Dennis-Sutton broke out with 8.5 sacks in 2024 and likely would’ve been a Day 2 pick had he declared last year. He’s a strong, long, explosive edge defender who has developed well as a pass-rush technician. Dennis-Sutton would bring real juice to the Cowboys’ front seven.
27) Washington Commanders
DJ McKinney, CB, Colorado
There’s a lot to be excited about with the Washington Commanders’ offense. That said, they could use some youth on the defensive side of the ball.
DJ McKinney is a big cornerback at 6’2″ and 190 pounds. He allowed a passer rating of just 58.1 last year with three interceptions for Colorado. McKinney’s ball skills and size-adjusted athleticism make him a worthy selection late in the first round.
28) Kansas City Chiefs
A.J. Harris, CB, Penn State
With Trent McDuffie on the roster, the Kansas City Chiefs have one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL. However, the rest of their group at the position could use some improvement, and they could look to take advantage of a talented 2026 NFL Draft class at the position.
At 6’1″ and 193 pounds, A.J. Harris has the ideal size and length for the CB position. Though he’s a taller corner, Harris is a tremendous athlete with fluid hips and encouraging lateral quickness coming out of his breaks.
29) Detroit Lions
Matayo Uiagalelei, EDGE, Oregon
Aidan Hutchinson’s return should be huge for the Detroit Lions, as they missed his pass-rushing presence off the edge down the stretch last season. Although their star is returning, they could still benefit from additional investment around him.
Matayo Uiagalelei, younger brother of QB DJ Uiagalelei, had 10.5 sacks in 2024 and earned first-team All-Big Ten honors. He’s an advanced technician for his age, with versatility along the entire defensive line and tremendous hand usage.
30) Buffalo Bills
Harold Perkins Jr., LB, LSU
The Buffalo Bills have solid defensive depth, but Matt Milano is coming off consecutive major issues at linebacker. Loading up their defense will be key to keeping pace with contenders like Kansas City and Baltimore.
Injury cut his 2024 season short, but Harold Perkins Jr. is a Swiss Army Knife with impressive athleticism and great pass-rushing value for an off-ball linebacker. If he bounces back in 2025, a first-round selection could be in the cards for him.
31) Baltimore Ravens
Zane Durant, DT, Penn State
Between Nnamdi Madubuike, Kyle Van Noy, Odafe Oweh, and Mike Green, the Baltimore Ravens have plenty of talent along their defensive line. However, they could still use one more interior defender to wreak havoc across the AFC.
With tremendous first-step quickness and a low center of gravity, Zane Durant is a disruptive DT with the potential to wreak havoc on passing downs in the NFL. He could thrive in a situation like Baltimore’s, which would provide him with consistent single-team opportunities against blockers.
32) Philadelphia Eagles
Antonio Williams, WR, Clemson
The Philadelphia Eagles boast one of the NFL’s top wide receiver tandems, featuring A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. It’s a bit of a luxury pick, but one thing they haven’t been able to find yet is a strong WR3 to fit alongside their dynamic duo.
Antonio Williams is an athletic receiver who can get open outside or in the slot. His agility after the catch and explosiveness coming out of his breaks as a route runner should make him a reliable complementary weapon in the NFL.
Antonio Williams 😤 pic.twitter.com/NEgddeyC3A
— Clemson Highlights (@ClemsonRT) August 25, 2025
Round 2 | 33) New Orleans Saints
Cashius Howell, EDGE, Texas A&M
After taking a quarterback to kick off our 2026 NFL Mock Draft, the Saints would be wise to consider other premium positions. Given the state of their roster, an edge rusher could be a wise investment for the future.
Keep an eye on Cashius Howell as a breakout star in 2025. He shone as a rotational defender last year, displaying tremendous acceleration and flexibility off the edge. Heading into a starting role for Texas A&M, the sky’s the limit.
34) New York Jets
Denzel Boston, WR, Washington
Garrett Wilson has been an excellent investment for the Jets, but they’ll need another wide receiver for their new quarterback in this scenario.
At 6’4″ with a career drop rate of just 4.1%, Denzel Boston is a physical boundary receiver with sticky hands and impressive body control. His ability to win above the rim and come down with catches in tight coverage would complement Wilson’s finesse-heavy game well.
35) Cleveland Browns
Austin Barber, OT, Florida
The Browns doubled down on offense to start this 2026 NFL Mock Draft. In the second round, they triple down by investing in a high-upside offensive tackle.
With ideal size, length, and mobility, Austin Barber has a very high ceiling as a pass protector and will be a four-year SEC starter by the end of the 2025 season. If he can improve his pad level and maximize his physical attributes, Barber could rise even higher when it’s all said and done.
36) Tennessee Titans
Carnell Tate, WR, Ohio State
As the Titans look to build around Ward, the most important thing for them will be to invest in offensive infrastructure around him.
Keep an eye on Carnell Tate now that he doesn’t have Emeka Egbuka competing for touches in Ohio State’s offense. He’s a tall, explosive receiver with good spatial awareness against zone coverage. He has serious deep-threat potential.
37) New York Giants
Deontae Lawson, LB, Alabama
Given the state of their franchise, the Giants need to stick with the best player available and build up both sides of the ball to the best of their ability. An off-ball linebacker could be a good move after their heavy investment in the defensive line in recent years.
I can see Deontae Lawson filling in as either a MIKE or SAM linebacker at a high level in the pros. He’s a big, physical player who showcases good closing speed in space.
38) Las Vegas Raiders
Malik Muhammad, CB, Texas
Going into the 2025 season, the cornerback position projects as a weakness for the Raiders. Though it could hurt them down the stretch this year, they’ll have good chances to upgrade at the position in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Malik Muhammad is a scrappy cover man who broke up eight passes last year. He’s physical, instinctive, and brings solid athleticism to the table, making him a strong potential starting option for Las Vegas in this hypothetical.
39) Carolina Panthers
Isaiah World, OT, Oregon
After taking a quarterback in Round 1 of this mock draft, the Colts look to protect Mendoza with an uber-talented OT.
Isaiah World excelled at Nevada and now brings his game to Oregon. At 6’8″, he’s a massive, mobile lineman, and his upside is undeniable. If he can stabilize his anchor better, he could be a serious impact lineman in the NFL.
40) Indianapolis Colts
Parker Brailsford, C, Alabama
After the departure of Ryan Kelly in free agency this year, the Colts are projected to start Tanor Bortolini at center. Though he displayed encouraging tape at Wisconsin, he’s unproven as a full-time starter, leaving the possibility that Indianapolis finds its long-term center elsewhere.
An athletic interior lineman with impressive body control and a high football IQ, Parker Brailsford has displayed impressive tape between his stints at Washington and Alabama. He’s a natural mover who changes direction well and lands his strikes accurately at the point of attack.
41) Jacksonville Jaguars
Domani Jackson, CB, Alabama
Without a first-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the pressure will be on the Jacksonville Jaguars to get it right with their pick in Round 2.
Last season, Domani Jackson was one of the best run-defending cornerbacks in college football. He’s physical in man coverage with good route-recognition instincts, which would make him a high-floor addition for the Jaguars.
42) Miami Dolphins
Will Lee III, CB, Texas A&M
Though an offensive tackle is an excellent addition for the Dolphins in this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, the bigger need arguably comes at cornerback. Luckily for them, there’s plenty of good value at the position in the late first and early second rounds.
Will Lee III is a long 6’3″ corner with surprising agility and solid ball skills. He’s totaled four interceptions and 16 pass breakups across his last two college seasons, showing the traits needed to thrive on the boundary.
43) Atlanta Falcons
Darrell Jackson, DT, Florida State
The Atlanta Falcons don’t have a first-round pick in 2026, making their second-round pick that much more important. In this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, they add an impact player for their defensive line.
Darrell Jackson Jr. gives the Falcons a pro-ready run defender with extraordinary length and power at the point of attack. He’s a high-floor rotational lineman along the interior, but he also has some juice as a pass rusher up the middle.
44) Seattle Seahawks
Jude Bowry, OT, Boston College
After taking a potential star running back in Round 1, the Seahawks would be smart to shore up their offensive line in the second round. Particularly, they could use an upgrade alongside Charles Cross at tackle.
Jude Bowry allowed just two sacks on 335 pass-blocking reps last season. He’s an athletic tackle with a sturdy lower half and could rise to the next level with another strong season in 2025.
45) Arizona Cardinals
Eric Singleton Jr., WR, Auburn
Between Marvin Harrison Jr. and Trey McBride, the Cardinals enter 2025 with a talented pass-catching duo. That said, their offense could become even more dangerous with a consistent third option through the air.
In two seasons at Georgia Tech, Eric Singleton Jr. showcased inside-outside versatility and elite speed on tape. If he continues his upward trajectory at Auburn, Singleton could be a riser on draft boards next year.
46) New England Patriots
Kenyon Sadiq, TE, Oregon
After going defense in Round 1 of this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, the Patriots switch to the offensive side of the ball to add a premium target for Drake Maye.
Though he’s been a backup at Oregon leading up to 2025, Kenyon Sadiq has the chance to be a breakout star this upcoming season. He’s an elite athlete who can separate from man coverage, has reliable hands as a pass catcher, and battles hard as a run blocker for a smaller tight end.
47) Dallas Cowboys
David Bailey, EDGE, Texas Tech
The Cowboys lost DeMarcus Lawrence in free agency, marking the end of an era for their defense. However, they enter 2025 with a need for another impact edge rusher opposite Micah Parsons.
David Bailey recorded seven sacks in 2024 for Stanford, showcasing outstanding athleticism and quick hands off the edge. Now at Texas Tech, he’ll look to continue his upward trajectory as a pass-rushing specialist.
48) Chicago Bears
Nicholas Singleton, RB, Penn State
Despite D’Andre Swift averaging just 3.8 yards per carry last year, he remains the Bears’ top running back entering 2025. If he puts together a repeat performance, they’ll likely be looking for an upgrade at the position next offseason.
After rushing for over 1,000 yards in 2024, Nicholas Singleton is one of the top returning senior prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft. He’s an explosive north-south runner with the speed and power to serve as a bowling ball up the middle.

— Matt Waldman (@MattWaldman) July 18, 2025
49) Pittsburgh Steelers
Drew Allar, QB, Penn State
Though the Steelers didn’t select a quarterback in Round 1 of our 2026 NFL Mock Draft, they change that in Round 2. They’ll need to make some investment for the future in the position next offseason.
Drew Allar is a big-bodied quarterback with a strong arm and underrated mobility who displayed much improved accuracy in 2024. With another strong season in 2025, he might not fall this far in real life.
50) Minnesota Vikings
Mansoor Delane, CB, LSU
Minnesota went with a safety in the first round of this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, but that shouldn’t be the only move they make to address the secondary. Their cornerback room could use some youth, as well.
Though he likely would’ve been a Day 2 pick this past draft cycle, Mansoor Delane could be a top pick in 2026 with another strong year. He’s a lengthy cornerback who thrives in zone coverage, displaying good fluidity and instincts underneath.
51) Houston Texans
Caleb Tiernan, OT, Northwestern
Sure, the Texans took a guard in the first round of this mock, but they’re more than just one new starter away from a complete offensive line. It wouldn’t be surprising if they doubled down up front in 2026.
Caleb Tiernan is a massive blocker at 6’7″ and 329 pounds with gap-zone run blocking versatility. He has the size, strength, hand usage, and spatial awareness to become a good starter in the NFL.
52) Denver Broncos
Makai Lemon, WR, USC
The Broncos saw encouraging production out of Courtland Sutton last season. That said, one more impact starter for their wide receiver room could elevate Bo Nix.
A top returning target for USC this year, Makai Lemon is a sure-handed slot receiver who’s quick after the catch and consistently gets open against both man and zone coverage.
53) Los Angeles Chargers
DJ Campbell, OG, Texas
Even though Rashawn Slater will miss the 2025 season due to injury, the Chargers seem set with him and Joe Alt at the two tackle spots. Their interior offensive line is still a work in progress, however.
If you like stout, physical guard prospects, DJ Campbell is the guy for you in this draft class. He doesn’t possess elite athleticism, but generates serious potential through contact with a strong, proportioned frame.
54) Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Max Klare, TE, Ohio State
Cade Otton is hardly a bad option for the Buccaneers at tight end. That said, if the value is right in the 2026 NFL Draft, they could look to bring in some competition with an early-round pick at the position.
A high-level producer for Purdue in 2024, Max Klare is an athletic and fluid tight end with a high ceiling on passing downs. He should be able to thrive under a brighter spotlight at Ohio State.
55) Los Angeles Rams
Trevor Goosby, OT, Texas
Though the Rams have gotten plenty of good play out of Rob Havenstein over the years, he’s 33 years old. They’ll eventually need to find his successor at right tackle.
Since he didn’t start in 2024, Trevor Goosby enters this season as a pretty big unknown. That said, he’s an elite athlete at offensive tackle who has demonstrated some really encouraging flashes on tape when he’s been able to play.
56) San Francisco 49ers
Jalon Kilgore, S, South Carolina
As of this writing, the 49ers are slated to start Marques Sigle and Jason Pinnock at their two safety spots in 2025. That’s a relatively unproven duo as full-time starters, so if that tandem doesn’t work out, they could use a high pick on a safety come 2026.
Jalon Kilgore is a big DB with significant reps as a deep safety, in the slot, and in the box. He finished with five interceptions in 2024, demonstrating physicality and a high motor on tape.
57) Cincinnati Bengals
Tyreak Sapp, EDGE, Florida
After addressing the secondary in Round 1 of this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, the Bengals continue focusing on a defense that needs plenty of work by hitting the trenches.
Tyreak Sapp is a versatile defensive lineman who can win inside or outside on passing downs. Sapp has an explosive first step and a low center of gravity, and he excels at taking on blocks head-on and breaking them down against the run.
Florida EDGE Tyreak Sapp Last Season:
🐊 90.4 PFF Grade

58) Green Bay Packers
Dontay Corleone, DT, Cincinnati
The Packers’ defense looks solid as a whole going into 2025, but they have a few glaring needs on that side of the ball. After drafting a cornerback in Round 1, they head to the defensive line for this next pick in our 2026 NFL Mock Draft.
A stout player with ideal pad level and good hands, Dontay Corleone is one of the best run-stopping defensive tackles in the upcoming 2026 draft class.
59) Houston Texans (via Commanders)
Gracen Halton, DT, Oklahoma
With their tandem of Will Anderson Jr. and Danielle Hunter, the Texans appear set off the edge. However, their interior defensive line could use some work to help round out the unit.
Gracen Halton is undersized for a defensive tackle at 6’2″ and 291 pounds. But he’s a fantastic athlete with good pad level, quick hands, and a high football IQ. He could be a serious difference maker up front.
60) Kansas City Chiefs
Makhi Hughes, RB, Oregon
Coming off an injury-shortened season, which saw him average 3.7 yards per carry, Isiah Pacheco has a lot to prove in his contract year. If he doesn’t perform well enough, the Chiefs could look to use an early-round pick on a new running back in 2026.
Makhi Hughes ran for a combined 2,779 yards and 22 touchdowns in his first two seasons at Tulane. Now moving to Oregon, he brings zone-gap versatility, impressive physicality, and good lateral quickness to the table. Hughes projects well as a starting RB in the pros.
61) Detroit Lions
Connor Lew, C, Auburn
With the retirement of Frank Ragnow late in the offseason, the Lions are slated to start Graham Glasgow at center in 2025. While he’s not a bad option given the circumstances, they could look to upgrade at the position in next year’s draft.
Through his first two collegiate seasons, Connor Lew has allowed just one sack in pass protection. He’s a little bit light for a center, but he’s an impressive athlete at the position with good spatial awareness and a high football IQ.
62) Buffalo Bills
R Mason Thomas, EDGE, Oklahoma
As previously mentioned, loading up on dynamic defenders will be key for the Bills to maintain long-term success in a loaded AFC and potentially get over the hump.
I get Yannick Ngakoue vibes from R Mason Thomas, who’s not the biggest or most physical edge rusher in run support. Instead, it’s his explosiveness, flexibility, and deep arsenal as a pass-rusher that I think could see Thomas reach similar heights that Ngakoue did in the league.
63) Baltimore Ravens
Chris Bell, WR, Louisville
The Ravens seem to have found their WR1 in Zay Flowers, but the rest of their wide receiver room is shaky, at best. DeAndre Hopkins is a short-term solution, and you can do better than Rashod Bateman as your WR2.
Listed at 6’2″ and 220 pounds, Chris Bell is a freak athlete for his size with the raw speed and strength to be a potential force at wide receiver. Slowly easing into Baltimore’s offense would help him develop as a route runner and maximize his true potential.
64) Philadelphia Eagles
D’Angelo Ponds, CB, Indiana
Philadelphia has two quality starting cornerbacks in Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean. Though they may have found a new starter by trading for Jakorian Bennett, the Eagles may think they can upgrade at that last starting corner spot in next year’s draft.
In his last two seasons, D’Angelo Ponds has tallied five interceptions. He’s an undersized cornerback at 5’9″ and 170 pounds, but Ponds is a tremendous athlete with great coverage instincts and a scrappy demeanor near the line of scrimmage.
Round 3 | 65) New Orleans Saints
Sonny Styles, LB, Ohio State
An explosive, versatile defender in a similar mold to Isaiah Simmons coming out, Sonny Styles will require proper deployment of his skill set, but he offers tremendous upside.
66) Philadelphia Eagles (via Jets)
Aamil Wagner, OT, Notre Dame
Aamil Wagner is a little light in the pants but is a tremendous athlete with elite length. His starting upside is palpable, and that could make him a potential developmental pick to learn under Lane Johnson in Philadelphia.
67) Cleveland Browns
Gabe Jacas, EDGE, Illinois
By the end of 2025, Gabe Jacas will be a four-year starter at the Big Ten level. He’s a thick, powerful edge rusher who lacks in flash, but he more than makes up for it with his tenacity, hand activity, and instincts rushing the passer.
68) Tennessee Titans
Mikail Kamara, EDGE, Indiana
There are longer and faster edge rushers than Mikail Kamara in the 2026 draft. That said, few have as deep a pass-rushing arsenal and are as intelligent against the run as he is.
69) Houston Texans (via Giants)
Kaytron Allen, RB, Penn State
Kaytron Allen is a tough, physical runner with good ball-carrier vision in between the tackles. He splits carries at Penn State but could be a full-time starter in the NFL.
70) Las Vegas Raiders
John Mateer, QB, Oklahoma
John Mateer is a true gamer who’s accurate, tough and has underrated zip behind his throws. He doesn’t have an elite ceiling, but he’s one of my favorite quarterbacks to watch in this class.
71) Carolina Panthers
Keon Sabb, S, Alabama
Keon Sabb is an intelligent, hard-hitting safety who can defend the run and make plays in coverage at a high level. He’s a high-floor prospect who should end up starting in the league.
72) Indianapolis Colts
Kamari Ramsey, S, USC
He’s an average athlete at safety, but Kamari Ramsey is a physical DB with a high football IQ who can make plays in coverage with his quick processing speed. He should end up being a solid starter in the pros.

73) Jacksonville Jaguars
Jack Endries, TE, Texas
A top target for Fernando Mendoza at Cal last year, keep an eye out for Jack Endries at Texas in 2025. He’s an athletic tight end with steady hands and impressive control across the middle of the field.
74) Miami Dolphins
Michael Taaffe, S, Texas
Michael Taaffe is a former walk-on who has turned into a key part of Texas’ defense. He’s an intelligent processor in coverage who plays with a high motor and a natural feel for how to attack the ball.
75) Atlanta Falcons
Zachariah Branch, WR, Georgia
Through two seasons at USC before his transfer to Georgia, Zachariah Branch was one of the most dynamic receivers in football. He’s undersized but thrives in space with elite athleticism and ball-carrier vision that shines when he returns kicks and punts.
76) Seattle Seahawks
Jake Slaughter, C, Florida
After only allowing one sack in 402 pass-blocking reps last year, Jake Slaughter enters the CFB season as one of the best interior linemen. He’s an innovative and mobile center prospect with eventual starting upside.
77) Arizona Cardinals
Xavier Chaplin, OT, Auburn
Xavier Chaplin was a two-year starter at Virginia Tech and heads to Auburn as a key addition to their offensive line. The 6’7″, 338-pounder uses his hands very well and has the raw power needed to excel at the point of attack.
78) New England Patriots
Anto Saka, EDGE, Northwestern
This is a projection placing Anto Saka this high, since he was a backup his first two years at Northwestern. However, the tools are in place for him to become a massive breakout star in 2025. Saka is a twitchy, explosive edge rusher with the speed and flexibility to give offensive tackles fits, and he’s a high-motor player with refined hand usage.
79) Pittsburgh Steelers
Kevin Concepcion, WR, NC State
Kevin Concepcion is a dynamic receiver with tremendous YAC ability. The hope is that a transfer from NC State to Texas A&M will allow him to utilize his agility and vision in space correctly.
80) Chicago Bears
Tao Johnson, S, Utah
A high school quarterback who started college as a wide receiver, Tao Johnson’s rapid development as a safety has been impressive to watch. He possesses the fluidity, long speed, processing speed, and ball skills to become a quality starter, provided he improves his tackling.
81) Pittsburgh Steelers (via Cowboys)
Xavier Scott, CB, Illinois
Xavier Scott stands out to me as a high-floor nickel cornerback who can also play out wide or as a safety. He doesn’t have elite physical tools, but has sharp route recognition skills, good fluidity in coverage, and ideal physicality as a tackler.
82) Minnesota Vikings
Quintrevion Wisner, RB, Texas
Reaching 1,064 rushing yards in 2024, Quintrevion Wisner is a speedy running back with big-play potential who would be a tremendous complementary back to and eventual replacement for Aaron Jones.
83) Miami Dolphins (via Texans)
Elijah Sarratt, WR, Indiana
Elijah Sarratt is a 6’2″, 209-pound receiver who excelled in the jump from James Madison to Indiana last year. He’s a physical weapon with a large catch radius who can serve as a reliable possession receiver.
84) Denver Broncos
Suntarine Perkins, LB, Ole Miss
Though undersized at 6’1″ and 210 pounds, Suntarine Perkins is a jack of all trades who’s an elite athlete with a red-hot motor. He takes blocks head-on and chases down ball carriers with relentless pursuit.
85) Los Angeles Chargers
Lawson Luckie, TE, Georgia
Even with a loaded Georgia tight end room the last two years, Lawson Luckie has been able to showcase NFL-caliber tools on tape. He’s an athletic tight end who can stretch the field well and has a good feel for how to exploit soft spots against zone coverage.
86) Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Domonique Orange, DT, Iowa State
Affectionately known as “Big Citrus” in the Iowa State community, Domonique Orange is a physical run-stuffer up the middle who has the power and technical prowess to step into a defensive line rotation and make an impact in the NFL.
Iowa St. DT Domonique Orange played as expected in the 2025 opener for a projected day 2 draft pick by NFL teams.
Stout and dense (6016v, 328v, 33 3/4″ arms). Immovable NT when he wants to be. But also violent hands and quickness to create inside pressure. pic.twitter.com/OiCXCLKOVG

87) Los Angeles Rams
Ja’Kobi Lane, WR, USC
Ja’Kobi Lane is a projection here at this point, but he’s a 6’4″ receiver with tremendous ball skills and better athleticism than most his size. He has the potential to rise up draft boards with a larger workload in 2025.
88) San Francisco 49ers
Damon Wilson II, EDGE, Missouri
A former five-star recruit in high school, Damon Wilson II heads to Missouri after serving as a rotational defender at Georgia. He’s an elite athlete with quick hands and a flexible lower half who could rise boards if he thrives with a bigger workload in 2025.
89) Cincinnati Bengals
Logan Jones, C, Iowa
You’re getting a boatload of physical tools if you select Logan Jones in the 2026 NFL Draft. He’s a tremendous athlete who moves very well in space and laterally in pass protection. He’s also a powerful lineman with the tenacity to thrive in the NFL trenches.
90) Green Bay Packers
Tacario Davis, CB, Washington
Had he declared for this year’s draft, Tacario Davis likely would’ve been a Day 2 selection. His length and fluidity give him legitimate starting upside along the perimeter in the pros.
91) Washington Commanders
Jadyn Ott, RB, Oklahoma
Jadyn Ott was one of the top running backs in the nation for Cal in 2024, making him a stellar transfer portal get for Oklahoma this offseason. He’s a well-rounded back who runs hard and varies his tempo well in between the tackles.
92) Kansas City Chiefs
Amare Ferrell, S, Indiana
Amare Ferrell is a versatile defensive back with ideal size at 6’2″ and 200 pounds, as well as the intelligence to process route concepts from any alignment on the field. He’s a sleeper to watch in the upcoming collegiate season.
93) Jacksonville Jaguars (via Lions)
Emmanuel Pregnon, OG, Oregon
With proper weight distribution and good play strength, Emmanuel Pregnon holds his own at the point of attack. If he can improve the consistency of his strike placement, he could go even higher than this in 2026.
94) Buffalo Bills
Evan Stewart, WR, Oregon
A serious knee injury could rob Evan Stewart of his 2025 season. Still, when healthy, he’s a twitchy slot receiver with good agility after the catch who offers serious starting upside as an NFL Draft prospect.
95) Baltimore Ravens
Jaishawn Barham, LB, Michigan
Even if Jaishawn Barham won’t wow you as an athlete for the linebacker position, he’s as physical as they come and can deconstruct blocks at a very high level near the line of scrimmage.
96) Philadelphia Eagles
DeMonte Capehart, DT, Clemson
Surprising some by going back to Clemson for another year, DeMonte Capehart is a pro-ready run defender with ideal grip strength, a stout anchor, and good instincts deconstructing blocks up the middle.
97) Jacksonville Jaguars (via Lions)
Kage Casey, OT, Boise State
Arguably the best performer on an offensive line that paved the way for Ashton Jeanty, Kage Casey is an intelligent pass protector and powerful run blocker who could grow into a decent starting tackle.
