Now that the 2025 NFL Season is officially over, the NFL Free Agency period and the 2026 NFL Draft are soon to follow, and this offseason is truly shaping up to be one of the more active in recent memory, perhaps of all-time, even.
With the NFL Draft not being a very deep class, we could see notable roster movement before April rolls around. This could result in a hyper-active free agency period with a ton of players perhaps getting paid more than they would normally get, and even result in some high-profile trades.
Well, ahead of our most recent NFL mock draft, we took into consideration the strong possibility that major trades could take place. Our latest mock is two rounds long and has numerous big-time trades that could absolutely go down.
A ton of trade movement highlights updated two round mock draft predictions
1. Las Vegas Raiders - Fernando Mendoza, QB, Indiana
We all know the Las Vegas Raiders are very likely going to take Fernando Mendoza with the first overall pick, and now that Klint Kubiak is in the building, the Raiders can at least take this likely duo and run with it. It's not something that can't work despite how dysfunctional the Raiders have been in recent years.
2. New York Jets - Arvell Reese, LB, Ohio State
Arvell Reese is likely going to be an impact starter off the edge for the New York Jets from day one, and he could simply end up being a piece of the puzzle on defense for years to come.
3. Arizona Cardinals - David Bailey, EDGE, Texas Tech
David Bailey was a hyper-productive collegiate player, and with the Arizona Cardinals not really having a clear position to take here with the third selection, adding to the trenches is a good idea.
4. Tennessee Titans - Sonny Styles, LB, Ohio State
Sonny Styles immediately becomes the Tennessee Titans best linebacker and could be a huge boost in the middle of that unit for years to come. This is probably the highest Styles can end up going in 2026.
5. New York Giants - Carnell Tate, WR, Ohio State
The New York Giants snag Carnell Tate, and with Malik Nabers on the mend, the ideal scenario is that both Tate and Nabers form one of the best wide receiver duos in the NFL, and in theory, this should make life much easier for Jaxson Dart, who is someone who has to take a leap in year two. With John Harbaugh in as the head coach, the Giants are trending in the right direction.
6. Cleveland Browns - Jordyn Tyson, WR, Arizona State
Two wide receiver picks in a row is not going to be a massive shock if it actually happens, as there is a lot of top-end receiver talent in the 2026 NFL Draft. The Cleveland Browns get in on the fun and snag Jordyn Tyson from Arizona State. With the defense in a good spot, an emphasis on the offensive side of the ball is likely coming.
7. Washington Commanders - Caleb Downs, S, Ohio State
Caleb Downs is not just any safety prospect - he's one of the best safety prospects in recent NFL history and can quite literally do everything on the backend of the defense. The Washington Commanders run to the podium with this selection, as this roster is honestly in dire need of high-end talent.
Many of us overrated this team in 2025.
8. New Orleans Saints - Reuben Bain Jr, EDGE, Miami (FL)
The New Orleans Saints take a chance on Rueben Bain Jr, and undersized pass-rusher from Miami. However, he's a great football player and also plays an extremely valuable position, so the Saints could end up looking like geniuses here if Bain works out.
And with the Saints ending the 2025 season 4-1, this team could be primed for a legitimate breakout campaign in 2026.
9. Kansas City Chiefs - Jeremiah Love, RB, Notre Dame
If Jeremiyah Love is still on the board for the Kansas City Chiefs at pick nine, it might be hard for them to pass him up, Sure, there is a rather deep running back free agency class, but Love could be a tier above all of those players.
The Chiefs can't help themselves and take Love here inside the top-10, instantly infusing the run game with some much-needed juice. Kansas City could, in theory, address their most urgent roster needs in free agency and always look to other rounds to shore up key positions.
10. Cincinnati Bengals - Mansoor Delane, CB, LSU
The Cincinnati Bengals need defensive help all over the place, so you can't really go wrong with any top defensive prospect in the 2026 NFL Draft. Our latest mock draft has the Bengals selecting the best cornerback prospect in the class in Mansoor Delane. With how weak the secondary is, Delane himself would easily be a day one starter, but much more help is needed to get this unit on the right track.
11. Miami Dolphins - Jermod McCoy, CB, Tennessee
Jeff Hafley is the Miami Dolphins new head coach, and he dealt with some inconsistent cornerback play during his most recent stint as the defensive coordinator of the Green Bay Packers. The Dolphins give him some much-needed secondary help and select Jermod McCoy at pick 11. The Dolphins are also going to be involved in a major trade later in the first round.
12. Dallas Cowboys - Peter Woods, DT, Clemson
The Dallas Cowboys were active at the trade deadline, and, at the moment, have two first-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft. The first of these two picks is used on Peter Woods, a stud defensive tackle prospect from Clemson. Dallas could really enact some major change on this side of the ball.
13. Los Angeles Rams - Spencer Fano, OT, Utah
The Los Angeles Rams just lost Rob Havenstein to retirement, so a new tackle is necessary. The Rams have been able to pass protect at a high level, so tackle does become a need. Spencer Fano is actually one of two first-round tackles from Utah, but he's the first one off the board. With two first-round picks in the NFL Draft, the Rams could truly take this roster to the next level and once again emerge as a juggernaut in 2026.
14. Baltimore Ravens - Francis Mauigoa, OT, Miami (FL)
The Baltimore Ravens are another team with needs across the offensive line. Francis Mauigoa might have to kick inside to guard at the next level, but he's got the profile to become a Pro Bowl player on the inside. The Ravens have needed some interior help for multiple years now and could lose center Tyler Linderbaum to the free agency market.
15. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Keldric Faulk, EDGE, Auburn
Tampa Bay has a slew of needs along the defensive front and couldn't go wrong with one of the top pass-rushers or linebackers. At pick 15, they'll select Keldric Faulk from Auburn. After a year plagued by a second-half collapse and a ton of injuries, the Buccaneers could take back the NFC South in 2026 with very simply a healthier group.
16. New York Jets - Makai Lemon, WR, USC
The Jets have two picks in the first 16 selections. At pick two, they snagged Reese from Ohio State. Here at pick 16, they'll flip to the other side of the ball and take Makai Lemon from USC. Slowly but surely, the Jets begin rebuilding this roster in dire need of major talent.
New York is another team slated to pull-off a blockbuster trade later on in this mock draft.
17. Detroit Lions - Caleb Lomu, OT, Utah
Taylor Decker could be another notable offensive tackle who decides to hang it up this coming offseason, so the strong Detroit Lions offensive line might be in need of some tackle help. The Lions take Caleb Lomu and get ahead of the game a bit, as they could justify this pick even if Decker comes back for another season.
On paper, the Lions are truly one of the most talented teams in the NFL.
18. Minnesota Vikings - Avieon Terrell, CB, Clemson
With a dire need at cornerback and the likelihood that a notable quarterback addition comes before the NFL Draft, the Minnesota Vikings can really shore-up remaining roster needs here, as while the team was a bit of a mess in 2025, the roster is otherwise very talented outside of a few positions. Avieon Terrell is the younger brother of AJ Terrell and could slide right into the mix for the Vikings in 207 and beyond.
19. Carolina Panthers - Kenyon Sadiq, TE, Oregon
Kenyon Sadiq is by far the best tight end prospect in another strong tight end class. Sadiq isn't the Brock Bowers-caliber prospect we saw years ago, but he's a first-round prospect and does bring some upside as a blocker, and that isn't really something you get a lot from collegiate tight ends making the jump into the NFL.
The Panthers make the pick and continue adding young talent on offense.
20. Dallas Cowboys - Ahkeem Mesidor, EDGE, Miami (FL)
The Dallas Cowboys double-dip on defense in our latest mock draft and take Ahkeem Mesidor from Miami after snagging the defensive tackle in Woods from Clemson at pick 12. Dallas fielding a 'good' defense in 2026 would likely result in an NFC East title and the possibility for a deep playoff run.
21. Pittsburgh Steelers - Ty Simpson, QB, Alabama
At some point, the Pittsburgh Steelers have to bring in a legitimate, young quarterback who has the chance to develop into a potential franchise cornerstone. The Steelers lack to embrace this or a full rebuild will keep them in this middle tier for years to come, but Ty Simpson at pick 21 could be a worthy selection and actually give the team a chance to emerge with an encouraging, young quarterback down the line.
Aaron Rodgers returning for the year with Simpson also in the room is a legitimate plan at the most important position in sports.
22. Los Angeles Chargers - Kadyn Proctor, OT, Alabama
The Los Angeles Chargers could address the offensive line multiple times in free agency and still use their first-round pick on a top prospect. Kadyn Proctor is a tackle right now, but he might be someone who kicks inside to guard at the next level. Frankly, the Chargers have a ton of potential solutions along the offensive line, and it's simply inexcusable if the front office can't figure something out here.
23. Philadelphia Eagles - Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia
Another team taking offensive line in Round 1, the Philadelphia Eagles might also have a dire need here, as both Landon Dickerson and Lane Johnson could both retire this offseason, and that would create two gaping holes along a once-elite offensive line.
Monroe Freeling is yet another tackle prospect with a Round 1 grade who might have to kick inside to guard, but either way, this pick makes sense.
24. Cleveland Browns - Caleb Banks, DT, Florida
Now addressing the defensive line after addressing the offense earlier, the Browns settle on Caleb Banks, who might have the highest potential of any defensive line prospect in the entire draft. Cleveland has added a ton of talent in Round 1 of our latest mock draft.
Chicago sends Pick 25 and 2027 1st-Round Pick to Las Vegas for DE Maxx Crosby
25. Las Vegas Raiders - Denzel Boston, WR, Washington
The Chicago Bears make the first major, blockbuster move of this mock draft and send two first-round picks to the Raiders for Maxx Crosby, a disgruntled defensive superstar who is clearly in need of a fresh start. The Bears part with pick 25 this year and a 2027 first-round pick as well, landing a top-5 pass-rusher in the NFL and a player in Crosby who also is stout against the run.
This would be a best-case scenario for Chicago, as the defensive line is the team's weakest unit, but they could fix it with one of the very best in the league. The Raiders use their second first-rounder and give Mendoza some help on offense, snagging Denzel Boston from Washington.
26. Buffalo Bills - Cashius Howell, EDGE, Texas A&M
The Buffalo Bills have a major trade in the works as well, but for now, they stand pat in Round 1 in our latest mock and get some much-needed defensive line, help, taking Cashius Howell from Texas A&M. The notable defensive line additions that Brandon Beane made last offseason didn't really work out.
27. San Francisco 49ers - Kayden McDonald, DT, Ohio State
The San Francisco 49ers had one of the more limp and uninspiring defensive lines in football in 2025. That is bound to change this offseason, as San Fran will not only add some pass-rushing help in free agency, but they could dip into the NFL Draft and take Kayden McDonald, further fortifying a once-weak unit.
28. Houston Texans - Vega Ioane, OG, Penn State
Houston is one more quality starter along the offensive line from fielding a strong unit. Ed Ingram played well at guard in 2025, but he was thoroughly average and is a free agent, so the Texans could replace him with a likely immediate upgrade in Vega Ioane from Penn State. Ioane plays with an incredibly nasty edge and is your favorite guard's favorite guard.
Los Angeles Rams send Pick 29 to Kansas City for CB Trent McDuffie
29. Kansas City Chiefs - KC Concepcion, WR, Texas A&M
The Rams make a major move here and send pick 29 to the Chiefs for Trent McDuffie, a player that the Chiefs have not been able to agree on a long-term contract extension with. The Chiefs get a second first-round pick and further bolster the offense with KC Concepcion, a player who is simply elite and a massive difference-maker with the ball in his hands.
And in return, the Rams get a legitimate no.1 cornerback in McDuffie. It's also important to remember that the Rams have a ton of cap space as well, so this team is resource-rich heading into the offseason.
Denver sends Pick 30 to Miami for WR Jaylen Waddle
30. Miami Dolphins - CJ Allen, LB, Georgia
Two major trades in a row now see the Denver Broncos, who did have some level of interest in Jaylen Waddle at the trade deadline, actually go through with the selection and send pick 30 for Waddle. The Broncos have to find a legitimate difference-maker in this room, and Waddle is just that. He instantly becomes the top option in the passing game and will then allow other players like Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin to thrive in lesser roles.
The Dolphins get a second first-round pick and double-up defensively, snagging CJ Allen from Georgia, and old-school linebacker.
31. New England Patriots - TJ Parker, EDGE, Clemson
The New England Patriots boost up the pass rush and take TJ Parker from Clemson. The Super Bowl uncovered a lot of harsh truths about the Pats, but the issues they have are very fixable.
32. Seattle Seahawks - Colton Hood, CB, Tennessee
The Super Bowl champions finish off the first round in this mock draft by taking Colton Hood. Both Josh Jobe and Riq Woolen are free agents, so the cornerback room will soon need a boost.
33. New York Jets - Brandon Cisse, CB, South Carolina
The Jets continue stacking talent in our latest mock draft and are now looking to the secondary to take Brandon Cisse from South Carolina. Cisse has 10 passes defended over his final two years in college, and with the Jets having traded Sauce Gardner to the Indianapolis Colts, you can bet that General Manager Darren Mougey is looking to add a good bit of talent to this unit in the offseason.
34. Arizona Cardinals - Omar Cooper Jr, WR, Indiana
The Cardinals take Omar Cooper Jr from Indiana and stack the offense with more talent. It's unfortunately a tough situation for the Cards, as there might not be an easy way out until years down the line. If nothing else, the 2027 NFL Draft is projected to be stacked at the quarterback position, so the front office could simply load up the roster as much as possible in hopes that a franchise quarterback is available to them next year.
35. Tennessee Titans - Christen Miller, DT, Georgia
Tennessee continues to position themselves in a breakout spot for 2026. The Titans take Christen Miller from Georgia at pick 35, and it's important to remember that the Titans are also flush with cap space in 2026, so this front office could really make some sweeping changes. Cam Ward has to be the center focus of this coming offseason.
36. Las Vegas Raiders - Emmanuel Pregnon, OG, Oregon
The Raiders sent Crosby to the Bears earlier in this mock draft but have actually had an offensive-focus in this mock draft. They take Emmanuel Pregnon at pick 36 and have used all three picks thus far on the offensive side of the ball, something that could end up paying off big-time in a year or so.
37. New York Giants - Chris Johnson, CB, San Diego State
The New York Giants do have some needs in the secondary, and if they play their cards right this offseason, the G-Men could be a frisky team in 2026. Chris Johnson from San Diego State had four interceptions and eight passes defended in 2025, so this is a player who is not only a legitimate day two talent, but he was constantly around the ball for the Aztecs.
38. Houston Texans - Jadarian Price, RB, Notre Dame
The Texans probably need to continue shoring up the offensive side of the ball. Now looking into the backfield, the Texans snag Jadarian Price from Notre Dame and take the other Notre Dame running back.
Houston really has to build a lot of talent around quarterback CJ Stroud, as it truly seems like he might not be nearly as good as many of us thought, which could lead Houston to, one way or another, make a bold decision down the line.
39. Cleveland Browns - Max Iheanachor, OT, Arizona State
A couple of seasons ago, the Browns were sporting one of the best offensive lines in the NFL, but with question marks at tackle and both Wyatt Teller and Joel Bitonio set to be free agents in 2026, the offensive line is going to need a notable makeover. Max Iheanachor has all the tools and traits to be a high-level tackle in the NFL for years to come.
40. Kansas City Chiefs - R Mason Thomas, EDGE, Oklahoma
The Chiefs now look to the defensive side of the ball for some pass-rush help and take R Mason Thomas from Oklahoma. We saw Kansas City snag two top offensive prospects, but many did see just how limp and weak the defensive line was during the 2025 season.
At some point, General Manager Brett Veach needs to get that unit figured out once and for all.
41. Cincinnati Bengals - Zion Young, EDGE, Missouri
Our own Ryan Fowler wrote up a scouting report for Zion Young
“Young carries a Day 2 grade with the potential to climb with a good predraft process. He profiles as a rotational edge defender early in his career with upside to grow into a starter if his pass-rush plan and consistency come along. Teams betting on traits and length, along with correct development, will view Young as a worthwhile investment whose best football could be down the road.”
The Bengals could take a chance on Young, as the possibility of the team bringing Trey Hendrickson back into the mix in 2026 might feel small right now, as, while Hendrickson is still a good player, he is getting up there in age.
42. New Orleans Saints - Germie Bernard, WR, Alabama
Germie Bernard profiles as a high-end WR2 in the NFL, and that type of player is what the Saints need. Pairing him up with Chris Olave does give the Saints the potential for a formidable receiver duo.
Tyler Shough also needs a bit of a boost on that side of the ball, as Shough seems to have all the makings of a decent quarterback.
43. Miami Dolphins - Chris Bell, WR, Louisville
Chris Bell is recovering from a knee injury, and had that injury not happened, he’d likely have gone in Round 1. However, the Dolphins get a potential steal here. With the team having traded Waddle in our predictions and the possibility that Tyreek Hill isn’t in the picture anymore, restocking the receiver room makes sense.
New York Jets send Pick 44 to Arizona for QB Kyler Murray and 2027 3rd-Round Pick
44. Arizona Cardinals - Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, S, Toledo
This is a major move. Given Kyler Murray’s contract, the Cardinals might not be able to get much for him, as they’ll trade the quarterback and a third-round pick in 2027 to the Jets for a second-round pick this year, essentially incentivizing the Jets a bit to pull this deal off.
Arizona gets a first-round talent in the middle of day two in Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, continuing to add talent to a roster depleted of it.
45. Baltimore Ravens - Dillon Thieneman, S, Oregon
The Baltimore Ravens also grab some safety help and take Dillon Thieneman from Oregon at pick 45. For the Ravens, the NFL Draft this year can honestly be where the team drafts for need, as the team is otherwise in a very good spot, and they don’t necessarily have to strain to add talent.
A few tweaks here and there, and the Ravens will be right back in the mix atop the AFC under Jesse Minter, the team’s new head coach.
46. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Lee Hunter, DT, Texas Tech
Lee Hunter is a legitimate, game-changing nose tackle prospect and yet another piece of the puzzle along the Buccaneers defensive line. Even with all of the mounting injuries in 2025, the defensive line was the main point of weakness for this team.
The NFC South is still wide open, and General Manager Jason Licht is one of the best in the NFL at finding draft talent, so there is a great chance that the Bucs bring in the necessary draft class in 2026 and return to the playoffs.
47. Indianapolis Colts - Anthony Hill Jr, LB, Texas
The Indianapolis Colts linebacker room could be swept away by the free agency market, and the Colts have not really invested a ton into the room in recent years. Now might be the perfect time for that investment, given how many day one and day two linebackers there are for the taking. The Colts grab a good one in Anthony Hill Jr from Texas.
48. Atlanta Falcons - Keith Abney II, CB, Arizona State
The Falcons do not have a first-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, so the new regime might not have a ton to work with in year one. Atlanta settles on Keith Abney II, a cornerback from Arizona State. Atlanta does have a ton of defensive free agents, and no team can bring back everyone they want
49. Minnesota Vikings - AJ Haulcy, S, LSU
The Minnesota Vikings have really put an emphasis on the backend of the defense here in our latest mock draft, and it would make a ton of sense. Brian Flores is back as the defensive coordinator, and that defense can be the best in the NFL.
Leaning into a strength like this would allow take some pressure off the offense in the event the team has a new starting quarterback for 2026. Mac Jones in a trade makes a lot of sense, but swinging a trade for someone else could be on the table if the price is right.
50. Detroit Lions - LT Overton, EDGE, Alabama
The Detroit Lions are an average defense away from being a legitimate contender once again. It’s important to remember that the Lions battled through a ton of injuries on that side of the ball in 2025 and are still just one year removed from a stellar 15-2 regular season.
Detroit making some key additions like this in the offseason would thrust them right back near the top of the NFL hierarchy. Winning the NFC North is on the table this upcoming season.
51. Carolina Panthers - Keionte Scott, CB, Miami (FL)
Carolina continues to stack talent and snags Keionte Scott from Miami at pick 51. The Panthers simply need Bryce Young to tick his game up a notch. He played the best football of his career in 2025, but it was a largely average season overall.
52. Green Bay Packers - Blake Miller, OT, Clemson
Green Bay’s offensive line is going to undergo some change this upcoming offseason, especially if Rasheed Walker departs in free agency. The Packers get a potential starter along the offensive line and take Blake Miller from Clemson. Green Bay does not have a first-round pick this year due to the Micah Parsons trade.
53. Pittsburgh Steelers - Elijah Sarratt, WR, Indiana
The Pittsburgh Steelers stick on the offensive side of the ball and take Elijah Sarratt from Indiana. With the team bringing in Mike McCarthy ashead coach, the smart thing to do would be to invest heavily on this side of the ball.
We can all see that the Steelers can field a competent defense, as that hasn’t been a problem, but until the Steelers get with the times on offense, they’ll continue to top out at 9, 10 wins, and a first-round playoff exit.
54. Philadelphia Eagles - Chase Bisontis, OG, Texas A&M
Philadelphia continues the offensive line investment with Chase Bistontis from Texas A&M. With all of the offensive changes that this team has gone through and could go through in 2026, General Manager Howie Roseman has to stay ahead of the game here and be proactive instead of reactive.
Notably, though, the defensive line and secondary could also be a point of emphasis this coming offseason as well.
55. Los Angeles Chargers - Darrell Jackson Jr, DT, Florida State
Darrell Jackson Jr is the pick for the LA Chargers at the bottom of the second round. With Jesse Minter out the door as the Ravens new head coach, the Chargers should increase the urgency on the defensive side of the ball, as Minter’s scheme was doing a lot of heavy-lifting in LA, as the defense itself really isn’t oozing with as much talent as you might think.
56. Jacksonville Jaguars - D’Angelo Ponds, CB, Indiana
D’Angelo Ponds plays a lot bigger than his size, and he feels like a Jacksonville Jaguar. Jacksonville will have a ton of players hitting free agency and doesn't have a ton of cap space, so this is the time for GM James Gladstone to really show the NFL world that he can become one of the best GMs in the league.
This offseason is one to watch. Adding Ponds to the secondary is not a bad idea.
57. Chicago Bears - Jake Golday, LB, Cincinnati
Chicago continues the heavy investment along the defensive front and now adds Jake Golday from Cincinnati. After trading for Maxx Crosby, the Bears add some much-needed youth to the middle of the defense. This unit did excel at turning the ball over, but they weren’t a great unit down-to-down and did struggle to stop the run and get to the passer.
In a similar way that the Bears overhauled the offensive line last offseason, they’ll overhaul the defensive line.
58. San Francisco 49ers - Chris Brazzell II, WR, Tennessee
San Francisco gets a true field-stretching weapon in Chris Brazzell II from Tennessee. Brandon Aiyuk is clearly not going to be in the picture anymore, and Jauan Jennings could depart in free agency. Wide receiver is absolutely a major need for the 49ers.
It’s also not a guarantee that tight end George Kittle is ready for Week 1, so the playmaking unit as a whole needs a refresh.
59. Houston Texans - Deontae Lawson, LB, Alabama
Houston adds to its strength and takes Deontae Lawson from Alabama in our latest mock draft. Head coach DeMeco Ryans was a linebacker who played his collegiate ball for the Crimson Tide, so this could be a fun addition for the defense.
Buffalo sends Pick 60 to Philadelphia for WR AJ Brown
60. Philadelphia Eagles - Davison Igbinosun, CB, Ohio State
The Eagles make the major move to trade AJ Brown, and they’ll send him to the Buffalo Bills for a second-round pick. Brown went for a first-round pick when he was first traded a few years ago from the Titans to the Eagles, so common sense would tell us that there really isn’t a logical reason for Brown to again be traded for a first.
Buffalo gives up pick 60, and the Eagles move on. Philly then addresses the secondary and grabs Davis Igbinosun from Ohio State. As for Buffalo, about six years after acquiring Stefon Diggs from the Vikings, GM Brandon Beane pulls off another major trade and adds Brown to the offense.
61. Los Angeles Rams - Zachariah Branch, WR, Georgia
The Los Angeles Rams add Zachariah Branch from Georgia at pick 61. Branch has top-end speed and could be a fun weapon for Sean McVay to use on offense. Maximizing the final years of Matthew Stafford’s career should be a top priority for the Rams this coming offseason.
62. Denver Broncos - Max Klare, TE, Ohio State
It’s flat-out insane that the Denver Broncos went into the 2025 NFL Draft with a major need at tight end and did not come away with a single one of the many draftable prospects. The Broncos try to right that wrong with Max Klare from Ohio State.
Fortunately for Denver, the tight end class this year does appear to be quite deep, so there really isn’t much of an excuse, as the offense needs a complete, in-line tight end desperately. The Broncos also have to build around Bo Nix aggressively this offseason to maximize his rookie contract window.
New England sends Pick 63 to Dallas for WR George Pickens
63. Dallas Cowboys - Antonio Williams, WR, Clemson
Major trade alert! Our final blockbuster trade of this mock draft sees the Dallas Cowboys sending wide receiver George Pickens to the New England Patriots for the 63rd selection, and it seems like a second-round pick is going to be the asking price for Dallas.
The Cowboys reset things a bit at wide receiver and take Antonio Williams from Clemson. Ideally, the Cowboys simply extend Pickens for the long-term, but Jerry Jones loves the drama, so a trade might be more realistic.
The Patriots get a legitimate no. 1 target who can stretch the field and lean into what Drake Maye does well - pushing the ball down the field.
64. Seattle Seahawks - Connor Lew, OC, Auburn
Seattle finishes off our two-round NFL mock draft by getting some interior help in Connor Lew from Auburn. The Seahawks have so much cap space and such a solid roster overall, so GM John Schneider can directly address roster needs in hopes of repeating as champions in 2026.
