Minnesota Vikings: Brandon Cisse, CB, South Carolina
The Vikings could stand to improve their secondary, so cornerback or safety must be addressed soon.
Brandon Cisse has been an impressive cover cornerback. He has nice size and plus speed and athleticism.
Carolina Panthers: Kenyon Sadiq, TE, Oregon
Axe Tepper will do anything in his power to justify the selection of Bryce Young, so he’ll want to give his quarterback another weapon.
Kenyon Sadiq has upside as an athletic tight end.
Pick change; previously Colton Hood, CB
Dallas Cowboys: Francis Mauigoa, OT, Miami
If Tyler Guyton continues to play like a bust, the Cowboys will need to find a new tackle.
Francis Mauigoa has immense upside as a potential left tackle in the NFL. His brother was just drafted in the fifth round.
Pittsburgh Steelers: Spencer Fano, OT, Utah
The Steelers can’t block, so they may try to resolve that problem with this pick.
Spencer Fano needs to fill out his frame, but he was stationed at left tackle as a freshman.
Pick change; previously Jude Bowry, OT
Los Angeles Chargers: Will Lee III, CB, Texas A&M
The Chargers have a weak group of cornerbacks that must be addressed.
Will Lee has great length and size.
Philadelphia Eagles: Caleb Lomu, OT, Utah
The Eagles may have to replace Lane Johnson soon, so they may use this pick to do that.
Caleb Lomu is a tough blocker with solid potential.
Pick change; previously Isaiah World, OT
Cleveland Browns: R. Mason Thomas, DE/OLB, Oklahoma
The Browns need a bookend for Myles Garrett for the present and a replacement for the future.
R. Mason Thomas is a speedy and dynamic edge rusher.
Pick change; previously Spencer Fano, OT
Chicago Bears: Will Heidt, DE, Clemson
Will Heidt has good size and upside.
Pick change; previously Rueben Bain, DE
Buffalo Bills: Chris Bell, WR, Louisville
Keon Coleman continues to be a big disappointment. The Bills need a legitimate No. 1 receiver.
Chris Bell is a big and tough receiver with good speed.
San Francisco 49ers: L.T. Overton, DT, Alabama
The 49ers have a dreadful pass rush. They could stand to add some talent in the defensive interior.
L.T. Overton projects as a five-technique. He’s a tough defender with good quickness and athleticism.
Houston Texans: Kayden McDonald, DT, Ohio State
The Texans have great edge players, but they could stand to improve the interior of their defensive line.
Kayden McDonald is a disruptive defender who has plus athleticism at his big size.
Pick change; previously Kenyon Sadiq, TE
Los Angeles Rams: Isaiah World, OT, Oregon
Rob Havenstein is an impending free agent following the 2025 season, so the Rams may need to find a new right tackle.
Isaiah World is a lengthy tackle with good power.
Pick change; previously Jude Bowry, OT
New England Patriots: Sonny Styles, LB, Ohio State
The Patriots could use an upgrade at linebacker next to Robert Spillane.
Sonny Styles is a versatile linebacker who plays well in coverage.
Denver Broncos: A'Mauri Washington, DT, Oregon
The Broncos could stand to bolster their defensive line so they can improve against the run.
A’Mauri Washington is a big nose tackle who has surprising athleticism for someone his size.
Seattle Seahawks: Cashius Howell, DE, Texas A&M
The Seahawks are strengthening a strength here, as they have one of the best pass rushes in the NFL.
Cashius Howell is fast off the edge and has several impressive pass-rushing moves.
