No. 26: Buffalo Bills – Omar Cooper Jr, WR, Indiana
The trade for D.J. Moore is not all the Bills do to get Josh Allen more weapons. With more on the outside, the Bills select Indiana’s Omar Cooper Jr. to work the middle of the field. As a physical, slot type receiver, the former Indiana star adds a dynamic to the offense that has been missing sense the days of Cole Beasley.
No. 27: San Francisco 49ers– Spencer Fano, T, Utah
Another top prospect that has fallen in this draft is tackle Spencer Fano. He doesn’t get past the 49ers at No. 27 as an eventual replacement for Trent Williams. Whether the veteran returns or not for 2026, the 49ers will invest a first-round pick at tackle. Fano is as good as they come, especially at this spot in the draft.
No. 28: Houston Texans – Blake Miller, T, Clemson
With the No. 28 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Texans select their tackle of the future in Clemson’s Blake Miller. At 6-foot-7, 317 pounds, Miller has emerged as one of the top tackles in this draft. He’ll quickly compete with Trent Brown for the starting role at right tackle.
No. 29: Kansas City Chiefs – KC Concepcion, WR, Texas A&M
Patrick Mahomes gets another playmaker and touchdown maker in former Texas A&M star KC Concepcion. With his elite YAC ability, Concepcion lands in just the right spot with the right quarterback and a head coach in Andy Reid who will find ways to utilize his talent.
No. 30: Denver Broncos – Christian Miller, DL, Georgia
The Broncos add to the interior of their defensive line with the selection of Georgia’s Christian Miller. This is not considered a top need, but they take the best player available here who fulfills a need. They will address tight end, wide receiver depth and linebacker depth later on Day 2 and Day 3 of the draft.
No. 31: New England Patriots – Cashius Howell, ED, Texas A&M
The Patriots address one of their top needs in this draft with the selection of Texas A&M’s Cashius Howell. Mike Vrabel and company lost K’Lavon Chaisson in free agency, but did add Dre’Mont Jones. Now they add Howell who gives them speed off the edge and a high-energy impact.
No. 32: Seattle Seahawks – Avieon Terrell, CB, Clemson
The Seahawks select Clemson’s Avieon Terrell with the No. 32 overall pick in the draft. This selection helps them replace the departure of Riq Woolen. With the talent Terrell brings to the table, this could be seen as an upgrade by the end of the season.
