Those Little Red Crunchy Things 2026
Round 1
Picks 1-16
Picks 17-32
Proctor is a really good prosect at both RT or OG and the Lions have a need at both positions if they keep Sewell at LT.
The Vikings really need help stopping the run and McDonald is a tackling machine and really disruptive in the middle of the line.
I don't have a great feel for what the Panthers will do with this pick, but TE is a position of need and I don't see Sadiq falling much farther than this.
The Cowboys have moved on from Diggs and now have a spot to fill at CB. Johnson is an excellent CB with great ball skills who is great value at this spot.
If the Steelers truly plan to march Aaron Rodgers out there again as their QB, they'll need more protection up the middle. Ioane is a good pass protector and is improving as a run blocker.
Bisontis isn't on a lot of people's radars but he's a really good run blocker and pass protector, which is what the Chargers need in the middle of their O-line.
Iheanachor is more of a developmental project at RT or LT, but he has the highest upside of the remaining OT prospects. He'll have time to develop as both of the Eagles starting OT's are returning but are getting up there in age.
The Browns are lucky to have Lomu fall this far as they have a big hole at LT. Lomu doesn't have much upside but he's a polished pass defender and should be ready to start at LT in week 1.
The Bears really needed a DT so they're lucky that Woods had a poor final season compared to the prior season so falls to the Bears.
The Bills are shifting to a 3-4 defense and really need to do a better job stopping the run. Miller is a prototypical 3-4 NT and will do a great job clogging up run lanes.
The 49ers' starting WRs are either old, oft-injured or both (Evans). Brazzell is a great deep threat and play-making WR who could eventually become the WR1.
The Texans have great LBs but their contracts are near their end and they'll have to pay C.J. Stroud big bucks soon and they can't pay everyone. C.J. Allen is a great ILB, but he is available due to less money being paid to that NFL position.
The Chiefs traded their top two CB's to the Rams so they'll need to pick another one before the 1st day of the draft ends. Hood is a solid all-around CB and would present good value at this point in the draft.
The Dolphins are patient and get their WR to replace Waddle at this spot. Boston is a good all-around WR and with a little more production (though limited by his QB) he would have been drafted higher.
The Patriots have been scouting safeties heavily so I think they opt for the best one available in Thieneman. He was all over the field making plays last season.
I think the Seahawks would rather go DE here, but there really aren't any left at good value. Price can't catch or block, but he's an elite runner with the ball in his hands. The Seahawks have other RB's that can play the 3rd down back role.
