25. Detroit Lions: Yhonzae Pierre, EDGE, Alabama
The Detroit Lions need help all over the defensive side of the ball.
It worked out really well for them to have Brian Branch back in the lineup for their win over the Green Bay Packers in Week 7, but general manager Brad Holmes knows that there is still a lot of work yet to be done on that side of the ball.
Yhonzae Pierre has had a couple of really solid seasons in a row for Alabama, and in a few of their games, it has felt like he’s been the best defensive player on the entire field. He might not be the consensus 3rd-best EDGE player in this class, but he’s in the running.
26. Cleveland Browns: Jordan Ross, EDGE, LSU
Over the course of the 2026 season, LSU edge defender Jordan Ross has put himself in the running to be considered as one of the top pass rushers in the class.
He’s racking up pressures week after week, and has been really effective rushing from both sides of the line. He’s got great burst, get-off, and closing speed when he wins. His pass rush arsenal is impressive.
The Cleveland Browns will obviously be in the market for 1st-round pass rushers this year after the Myles Garrett trade, and landing a fast riser like Ross here late in the 1st would give them a nice haul along with Dante Moore.
27. Denver Broncos: Trey’Dez Green, TE, LSU
The Denver Broncos have struggled for years at the tight end position. They brought in Evan Engram in free agency last offseason, and he simply hasn’t become the type of threat in the passing game they would have hoped.
Part of that is their own fault for how they’ve used him, but regardless, Engram is a free agent after the season. The Broncos are going to have to start over and get another pass-catching threat at tight end, and Trey’Dez Green would be phenomenal for them.
At 6-foot-7, he’s such a fluid athlete who is more than just a straight-line type of player. He isn’t just a box-out guy in the red zone, either. He has really good instincts in space and is a threat after the catch.
28. Tennessee Titans (from Bears): Cam Coleman, WR, Texas
Yes, the Tennessee Titans just used a 1st-round pick on Carnell Tate in 2026, but here is a situation where you simply can’t pass on the type of value that’s staring you directly in the face.
Cam Coleman was considered to be arguably on par with Jeremiah Smith coming into the 2026 season, and as silly as that may seem now, NFL teams know what kind of ceiling this guy has.
He has struggled badly with dropped passes this year at Texas, but that big play ability is still there, and even amidst some of the drop issues, you have still gotten to see his ball dominance in some tightly contested situations.
