Given the incredible depth at OL, my best case scenario right now would be something like:

29. David Bailey, EDGE, Texas Tech
62. Jelani McDonald, S, Texas
93. Jake Golday, LB, Cincinnati
118. OL1
130. OL2
170. Akheem Mesidor, EDGE, Miami
196. Jyaire Hill, CB, Michigan
210. Omar Cooper, WR, Indiana
220. Leveon Moss, RB, Texas A&M
246. Eli Raridon, TE, Notre Dame

Where my OL wish list would include Austin Siereveld, Monroe Freeling, Gennings Dunker, Cayden Green, Kade Pieper, Chase Bisontis, Brian Parker, Conner Lew, Emmanuel Pregnon, Kage Casey, PJ Williams, and more.
 


Good stuff at around 22:00 mark on Jadarian Price and 47:00 on Zion Young.

McShay uses the term "violent" a lot when talking about Young.

Dane Brugler's draft "sleepers":

Chris Johnson, Kaytron Allen, other 2026 NFL Draft sleepers you need to know

Johnson might be the most underrated prospect in this draft class, while Allen has emerged as top dog in Penn State's backfield.

Logan Taylor, OT/G, Boston College​

Left tackle Jude Bowry is the main attraction for scouts on the Boston College offensive line, but I come away from each tape more and more impressed with Taylor. At 6-6 1/2, 309 with longer than 34-inch arms, Taylor has logged starts at both tackle and both guard positions — I like him best inside at the next level. His lateral agility is only okay, but his play strength, sturdy anchor and the ability to marry his feet and hands are consistent themes on his film.

He's the 2nd best power 4 run blocking guard in the country according to PFF, he's equally adept at zone and gap, has only given up 1 sack and 5 pressures (he's spent time at LT this year) and grades very well in pass pro, he has over 1,000 career snaps at LT, 750 at LG and 320 at RG and we'll get insight into his character from BoB.

I think he's a no brainer day 3 pick because if nothing else, he'd make for an awesome multi-purpose backup but has the skillset to be a potential starting LG.
 
Brugler also things a certain NC State TE is a sleeper ... no, not that one, Manx. Sorry.

I saw that. I'm guessing that with only 2 catches on the year, my guy is probably a UDFA only. Grab him in the 6th or 7th to get ahead. Joly is pretty good - I wouldn't object to doubling up on NC State TEs. My only concern is whether our NC QB would throw to them.
 
There is no binky quite like the late round/UDFA binky. We love the underdog. We all hope to find the next Julian Edelman. Look at all the EC3 adoration, or Patchick's love/lust for Nate Ebner (though I think that also had something to do with him being an incredibly ripped Jewish guy).

From a binky perspective, Kenyon Sadiq and Spencer Fano can't possibly compete with Logan Taylor and Cody Hardy.
