29. Seattle Seahawks: Quincy Rhodes Jr., EDGE, Arkansas

The Seattle Seahawks are going to have to hit a little bit of a reset button off the edge after this season is over.

DeMarcus Lawrence has said this will be his final NFL season. Boye Mafe just left for the Bengals in free agency. Uchenna Nwosu and Dante Fowler Jr. are both set to be free agents in 2027. The need here is obvious, so the only question is which players will fit the need and value in this spot.

It might be Quincy Rhodes, who is coming off a huge year with the Razorbacks. He racked up 15.5 tackles for loss and 8 sacks last season.

30. Houston Texans: Kewan Lacy, RB, Ole Miss

After trading for David Montgomery this offseason, the Houston Texans are going to be expecting their running game to make a huge leap forward overall. Woody Marks will be involved in the passing game as well, so it's not like they don't have anyone at running back, but they have such a fantastic roster on both sides of the ball, you can't help but dream about a luxury pick like this.

Kewan Lacy is one of a handful of backs getting 1st-round hype this offseason, and you can't help but love the way he plays after seeing the way he dominated last year at Ole Miss. He's got elite quickness, burst, vision, and he's so tough to track down with a head of steam.

He could be a home run hitter for the Texans.

31. Denver Broncos: Sammy Brown, LB, Clemson

Sammy Brown is a former five-star linebacker prospect who looks like he was built in a linebacker lab. At 6-foot-2, 234 pounds, he has the ideal frame and athletic traits to be a three-down player at the next level. He's proven quickly at the college level that he's going to be a really good future pro, and someone who could thrive in a defense like the Denver Broncos.

The Broncos have their two starting linebackers (Alex Singleton, Justin Strnad) currently locked into multi-year contracts, but this is an area of that defense that could use a jolt of talent, and Brown can provide that.

32. Cleveland Browns (from Rams): Cayden Green, OT, Missouri

The Browns keep on building through the trenches after taking a quarterback earlier in this 2027 NFL mock draft.

Any position group feels like it should be on the board for the Browns here, but you can't go wrong continuing to upgrade the offensive line, especially with a player who has positional versatility like Cayden Green.

He's played both guard and tackle for Missouri so far, and could project to either spot at the next level. This is how the Browns are going to right the ship: Keep investing in the trenches.
