2026 NFL Mock Draft 26-32: Browns take a shot at LSU QB, Patriots land intriguing edge rusher
No. 26: Cleveland Browns via Jacksonville – Garrett Nussmeier, QB, LSU
The Browns could wait until Day 2 to take a shot at Garrett Nussmeier but given his high ceiling as a potential starting NFL start, the Browns grab him with their second first-round pick. Throwing Nussmeier in the mix with Dillon Gabriel, Shedeur Sanders and potentially Deshaun Watson will provide another offseason of competition at the position.
No. 27: Dallas Cowboys via Green Bay – Romello Height, ED, Texas Tech
The Cowboys stick with defense with their second pick of the draft. At no. 27, the Cowboys select Texas Tech edge Romello Height. At 6-foot-3, 240 pounds, Height blends his size and athleticism in getting after the QB. Texas Tech teammate David Bailey has gotten most of the hype, but Height written his own profile as a disrupter of the quarterback.
