Round 1 Selections Table (Condensed)
These are the top 12 NFL Prospects for SuperFlex Dynasty Fantasy Football for 2026:
| Pick | Player | Position | School | Height/Weight | Author |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.01 | LaNorris Sellers | QB | South Carolina | 6’3” | 240 lbs | Bobby Bishop |
| 1.02 | Garrett Nussmeier | QB | LSU | 6’1” | 205 lbs | Keith Ensminger |
| 1.03 | Jeremiyah Love | RB | Notre Dame | 6’0” | 214 lbs | Mike Johrendt |
| 1.04 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | 6’5” | 235 lbs | Matt Mitchell |
| 1.05 | Jordyn Tyson | WR | Arizona State | 6’2” | 201 lbs | John Hammersmith |

| 1.08 | Nicholas Singleton | RB | Penn State | 6’0” | 225 lbs | Keith Ensminger |
| 1.09 | Carnell Tate | WR | Ohio State | 6’3” | 195 lbs | Mike Johrendt |
| 1.10 | Eli Stowers | TE | Vanderbilt | 6’4” | 235 lbs | Matt Mitchell |
| 1.11 | Makai Lemon | WR | USC | 5’11” | 195 lbs | John Hammersmith |
| 1.12 | Jonah Coleman | RB | Washington | 5’9” | 228 lbs | Mychal Warno |
Pick 1.01 | LaNorris Sellers | QB | South Carolina | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’3” | 240 lbs
Author: Bobby Bishop | @_bobbybishop
The top fantasy quarterback in the 2026 NFL Draft will be LaNorris Sellers. He was a four-star prospect coming out of high school, according to 247sports composite ranking. Sellers sat behind Spencer Rattler for a season, and then he took over last season. As a redshirt freshman, Sellers accumulated 2534 passing yards and 18 passing touchdowns, as well as 674 rushing yards and 7 rushing touchdowns. He’s been off to a slow start in 2025, especially owing to a concussion in Week 3 against Vanderbilt. Sellers will come back healthy and prove himself down the stretch.
LaNorris Sellers is the definition of a dual-threat quarterback. As a runner, Sellers has the best contact balance I’ve ever seen in a quarterback prospect. He breaks out of so many sacks and then turns an almost negative play into an explosive play downfield. Sellers has made strides as a passer, but evaluators need to monitor his progress in that area. As the season continues, Sellers has to showcase his ability to go through reads and get the ball out on schedule with anticipation. His skill set lends itself to becoming a dominant fantasy quarterback, with the upside of QB1 and 1.01 in this class.
Pick 1.02 | Garrett Nussmeier | QB | LSU | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’1” | 205 lbs
Author: Keith Ensminger | @TheSmingDynasty
The first month of the College Football season has not been kind to many in this class, most especially the quarterbacks. However, for now, I am sticking to my priors on LSU’s Garrett Nussmeier. The veteran signal-caller has seen a gradual build-up of opportunity in his career. After redshirting in 2022, he broke out in the 2022 SEC Championship game, passing for 294 yards and 2 touchdowns in the second half against Georgia. In 2023, after starter Jayden Daniels opted out, Nussmeier led LSU to a 35-31 bowl game victory over Wisconsin, completing 31 of 45 passes for 395 yards and 3 touchdowns on his way to winning MVP. Last season, finally the unquestioned starter, Nussmeier threw for over 4,000 yards and 29 touchdowns. Through the first three games of the 2025 season, he’s thrown for a pedestrian 689 passing yards, adding 3 TDs and 2 INTs, leading some to wonder if he even belongs in this conversation.
In a draft class advertised as featuring strong quarterback talent, Nussmeier projects as someone in the “safe but limited upside” bucket. His strengths lie in steadiness, accuracy, and experience. He’s unlikely to wow with elite arm strength or mobility, but he could be a dependable mid-level starter. Schemes that favor quick reads, intermediate throws, and timing concepts suit him best. As the 2025 season progresses, I want to see him become more consistent against tough defenses, especially in the SEC. I also want to see how he responds under pressure, both play-to-play from the pass rush but also in general as the face of a program with major expectations. Given that he doesn’t add much rushing upside, if Nussmeier doesn’t go on the first day of the 2026 NFL Draft, I won’t have him anywhere close to this ranking. However, for now, I’ll still take the best quarterbacks in this class over players at the other positions, given my overall thoughts of this being a below-average rookie class.
Pick 1.03 | Jeremiyah Love | RB | Notre Dame | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’0” | 214 lbs
Author: Mike Johrendt | @MJohrendt23
Having taken home top honors in our 1QB mock draft, Notre Dame RB Jeremiyah Love is the first non-QB off the board in this mock draft. A quiet start to his 2025 season shouldn’t turn you away from Love, as he is the quintessential running back prospect in the 2026 class. Love had a strong showing against Texas A&M in Notre Dame’s second game, averaging over four yards per carry as he ran for 94 yards and a touchdown.
The biggest step forward for Love will need to come in the passing game, something he has already taken a good step forward with this year. Love’s 2024 season only saw him record four-plus receptions once, yet he has hit that mark in each of his first two games, as Notre Dame has faced negative game script and has been forced to throw the ball a lot. Love is a strong runner who is physical at the point of attack, yet is shifty, the full package of what NFL teams will be looking for in the next draft cycle.
Pick 1.04 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’5” | 235 lbs
Author: Matt Mitchell | @ReflipeWThenuz
I’ve said it before, and I will say it again, in the superflex format, QB is king. With that in mind, I am selecting Penn State’s All-American signal caller, Drew Allar. The former No.1 High School QB, according to 247sports, Allar has played an extremely clean brand of football at Happy Valley with 57 TDs against just 11 Ints. He managed to do that despite the lack of a true No.1 WR at his disposal. This season, he has the Nittany Lions in position to challenge for a Big-10 championship and spot in the college football playoffs.
If you developed a traditional QB in a laboratory, he would come out looking something like Allar. Big and sneaky athletic, he can literally do it all for his football team. His athleticism shows up with his 500+ career rushing yards and 11 scores on the ground. I look for him to solidify himself as a 1st-round pick as the season progresses. He has the potential to be a much more prolific NFL QB if he lands in the right spot. When I watch Allar play, I see a style similar to Justin Herbert.
Pick 1.05 | Jordyn Tyson | WR | Arizona State | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’2” | 201 lbs
Author: John Hammersmith | @DynastyHammer
Jordyn Tyson checks the boxes physically at 6’2” and 200 pounds, giving him the prototypical frame of an NFL wideout. His basketball background is evident in the way he times his jumps and shields defenders with his body at the catch point. At Arizona State, Tyson has emerged as a reliable target, consistently winning contested catches while adding more nuance to his route running.
At the next level, Tyson’s size and ball skills project well to an outside receiver role, where he can threaten defenses vertically and provide a quarterback-friendly target in tight coverage. His ability to win jump-ball situations should make him an immediate red-zone asset, while his improved route work will help him earn separation. Tyson is a great athlete, but his physicality and body control give him the edge against defensive backs. With continued development, he has the potential to grow into a true WR1 who can anchor a passing attack.
Pick 1.06 | Justice Haynes | RB | Michigan | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 5’10” | 210 lbs
Author: Mychal Warno | @dynastydadmike
Justice Haynes continues to rise up my draft board. Coming out of high school, Haynes was a five-star recruit and ranked as the nation’s top running back in the 2023 class. Haynes committed to the University of Alabama, where he was stuck in a committee backfield during his first two seasons before transferring to the Michigan Wolverines. Haynes has an NFL pedigree in his blood as his father, Verron Haynes, was a former running back for the Pittsburgh Steelers and Atlanta Falcons. In Michigan’s opening game of the 2025 season, Haynes was able to showcase his abilities against New Mexico, where he rushed for a career-high 159 yards and three touchdowns on just 16 carries. Those 159 rushing yards were the most in their Michigan debut since 1970. Currently, after three straight 100-yard rushing performances, Haynes ranks fifth in college football with 388 rushing yards.
Haynes is a decisive one-cut runner with impressive contact balance. Although his receiving ability has not been fully showcased at Michigan, Haynes possesses above-average hands. Currently, Haynes is my RB2, which seems relatively high compared to other analysts. However, if Haynes continues to produce, do not be surprised to see Haynes’ draft stock skyrocket. Haynes would fit well in Minnesota’s offense, where head coach Kevin O’Connell likes to employ a mixture of inside zone and gap schemes.
Pick 1.07 | Fernando Mendoza | QB | Indiana | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’5” | 225 lbs
Author: Bobby Bishop | @_bobbybishop
Fernando Mendoza is emerging as one of the top quarterbacks in the country. After transferring from Cal to Indiana, he is settling in well. He had a nearly flawless game against Indiana State on September 12th. It truly doesn’t get much better than 19/20 for 5 touchdowns with another rushing touchdown added on. The best part: he didn’t play in the second half. As the Big Ten games start rolling in—Indiana will have already played Illinois before the publication of this article—Mendoza will be facing stiffer and stiffer competition.
Mendoza is a pocket passer with a rocket arm. He has clean footwork, goes through reads, and drives accurate passes down the field. When Mendoza faces tough competition, pay attention to how he performs under pressure. In 2024, Mendoza was sacked under 25% of pressure. He needs to showcase enough escapability and creativity to be successful even when protection breaks down. This attribute is essential to an NFL quarterback’s effectiveness. Ultimately, Mendoza could materialize as the best quarterback in a still murky draft class.
Pick 1.08 | Nicholas Singleton | RB | Penn State | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’0” | 225 lbs
Author: Keith Ensminger | @TheSmingDynasty
At 6’0’’ 225 lbs, Singleton reportedly runs a 4.38 in the 40, and over his collegiate career, he has shown that breakaway speed countless times. In 2024, he rushed for 1,099 yards and 12 rushing TDs while also catching 41 passes for 375 yards and 5 more scores. Singleton also has a background as a kickoff returner with a 24.2 yards per return career average. Analysts will always remind you to never “scout the helmet”, but I believe it bears noting that Nicholas Singleton will likely finish as the leading rusher in the history of Penn State football. Given the Nittany Lions’ strength and conditioning program’s outstanding track record of developing athletes, I think Singleton’s traits and measurables will light up NFL GMs’ eyes in the months leading up to the 2026 NFL Draft.
Singleton’s skill set has always been his calling card. He blends power and inside burst with receiving ability. If he could only get his somewhat poor contact balance to match his high-end lateral agility, he’d be a much more complete running back. His detractors will note, perhaps rightly so, that he still does not have the vision or instincts needed to be a top back in the NFL. That said, he has the profile of the high-upside week-winning fantasy football running back we all yearn for. Singleton is absolutely a three-down back rather than a one-dimensional runner, and with a great showing at the NFL Combine, he should push for an early Day 2 mark. What are the biggest boxes that need to be checked coming up for Singleton? Career-defining games against Oregon and Ohio State, of course. Singleton returned for his senior year for these moments. Will these big moments define him, or will he define those moments?
Pick 1.09 | Carnell Tate | WR | Ohio State | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’3” | 195 lbs
Author: Mike Johrendt | @MJohrendt23
Commentary: It has been a season of touchdowns so far for Carnell Tate, as he has caught one in each of the first three games. Overshadowed by Jeremiah Smith in the receiver room, Tate is a stud NFL prospect of his own, having racked up five receptions and at least 65 yards in each of his past two games, including a 101-yard effort against Ohio. The Ohio State Buckeyes spread the ball out really well, something that has helped Tate put up plenty of highlights on game film.
Arrogant hands mixed with superb ball-tracking skills gives Tate a fighting chance to earn the WR1 tag in the 2026 class; if there was anything to work on, it would be to improve his physicality a bit when mixing it up with defensive backs, but with his speed and route running, most times the DBs are in his back pocket anyways, so there isn’t the need to be physical.
Pick 1.10 | Eli Stowers | TE | Vanderbilt | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’4” | 235 lbs
Author: Matt Mitchell | @ReflipeWThenuz
I may be the highest in the draft community of Eli Stowers at this point in the process, and that is just fine with me. Stowers is a former 4-star QB recruit who has successfully transitioned from a failed QB at Texas A&M and New Mexico State to a 1st Team All-SEC TE. His 49 catches for 638 yards and 5 scores paced the Commodores last season. Just take a look at his monster game against Alabama. He is a main cog in the Vanderbilt passing game, once again adding a key component to the Commodores’ 3-0 start.
Stowers is a big, smooth athlete. As a former high-end QB prospect, he has a really good knack for finding the open holes within zone coverages. He may need to bulk up a bit to hold up as a blocker at the NFL level, but that being said, he will be a true weapon in the receiving game. Think of a player in the mold of a Brock Bowers. I look for his continued development as the season goes forward and for him to be the top TE selected in the upcoming NFL draft. Keep an eye on this prospect.
Pick 1.11 | Makai Lemon | WR | USC | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 5’11” | 195 lbs
Author: John Hammersmith | @DynastyHammer
Makai Lemon has been one of the most consistent producers in USC’s high-flying offense, carving out a role as both a chain mover and a big-play threat. Lemon finds soft spots in coverage and converts them into reliable gains. What makes him stand out is his blend of smooth acceleration and deceptive strength after the catch. Each week, he demonstrates an ability to create separation with sharp breaks while also showing toughness in the middle of the field.
In the NFL, Lemon’s versatility gives him a pathway to thrive as a movable chess piece in any offense. He has the speed to stretch defenses vertically, the short-area quickness to win out of the slot, and the toughness to make contested catches in traffic. His all-around profile mirrors the modern prototype of receivers who can line up anywhere and dictate coverage. If he lands with a creative play-caller, Lemon has the tools to develop into a dynamic WR2 with upside for more.
Pick 1.12 | Jonah Coleman | RB | Washington | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 5’9” | 228 lbs
Author: Mychal Warno | @dynastydadmike
Jonah Coleman really caught my attention after his 5-touchdown performance against UC Davis. Coleman was a three-star recruit who began his college career at Arizona before transferring to Washington in 2024. In 2024, Coleman was named Third-team All-Big Ten after rushing for 1,053 yards and scoring 10 rushing touchdowns. Coleman has started 2025 with a bang as he was named Doak Walker National Running Back of the Week after rushing for 177 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns against Colorado State.
At 5’9’’ 228 lbs, Coleman is a powerhouse runner. Coleman can absorb contact while still maintaining a downhill running style. His ability to pass block will be something that elevates his draft stock, along with consistent production throughout the 2025 season, as this draft class is wide open after Jeremiyah Love for the RB2.

Transition | End of Round 1 | Beginning of Round 2
That wraps up a star-studded Round 1 with a mix of dual-threat quarterbacks, physical running backs, and ascending wide receivers. While the first round carried many of the headline names in the 2026 class, the depth of this draft is what makes it so fascinating.
Round 2 is where dynasty managers often separate themselves from the pack by finding values, upside swings, and future risers. Let’s dive right into it.
Round 2 | Rookie Mock Draft (Picks 2.01–2.12)
Round 2 2026 NFL Draft Rookie Prospects
These 12 players round out the second half of this 2 Round SuperFlex Mock Draft:
| Pick | Player | Position | School | Height/Weight | Author |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.01 | Denzel Boston | WR | Washington | 6’4” | 209 lbs | Bobby Bishop |
| 2.02 | Antonio Williams | WR | Clemson | 5’11” | 190 lbs | Keith Ensminger |
| 2.03 | Ja’Kobi Lane | WR | USC | 6’4” | 200 lbs | Mike Johrendt |
| 2.04 | Kaytron Allen | RB | Penn State | 5’11” | 217 lbs | Matt Mitchell |
| 2.05 | Cade Klubnik | QB | Clemson | 6’2” | 209 lbs | John Hammersmith |
| 2.06 | John Mateer | QB | Oklahoma | 6’1” | 224 lbs | Mychal Warno |
| 2.07 | Nyck Harbor | WR | South Carolina | 6’5” | 235 lbs | Bobby Bishop |
| 2.08 | Jaden Greathouse | WR | Notre Dame | 6’1” | 212 lbs | Keith Ensminger |
| 2.09 | Kenyon Sadiq | TE | Oregon | 6’3” | 245 lbs | Mike Johrendt |
| 2.10 | Chris Brazzell II | WR | Tennessee | 6’5” | 200 lbs | Matt Mitchell |
| 2.11 | Jamarion Miller | RB | Alabama | 5’10” | 221 lbs | John Hammersmith |
| 2.12 | Taylen Green | QB | Arkansas | 6’6” | 224 lbs | Mychal Warno |
Pick 2.01 | Denzel Boston | WR | Washington | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’4” | 209 lbs
Author: Bobby Bishop | @_bobbybishop
The WR2 title is still up for grabs with several receivers in a tier, jostling for position. My favorite at this point in the process is Denzel Boston. While waiting his turn in Washington (a rarity in the modern CFB landscape), he developed into a dynamic outside receiver. Last season, he broke out to the tune of 837 receiving yards and 9 receiving touchdowns. He started the 2025 season strong against Colorado State with 5 catches for 92 yards and a touchdown. The touchdown was incredibly impressive. Boston fought through a pass interference and still came down with the ball, showcasing next level concentration.
Denzel Boston is more than just a jump-ball specialist. He runs high-quality routes, and he has extremely reliable hands. Boston caught 63 passes last year and only had 3 drops. I’m really paying attention to his yards after the catch throughout the rest of the season. Last year, he only averaged 5.3 yards after the catch per reception. After two games this year, he is down to 4.4 yards. I know he has the ability. Any receiver who can score punt return touchdowns is capable of gaining yards after the catch. Hopefully, Washington can get the ball to Boston in space for him to have more opportunities to force missed tackles.
Pick 2.02 | Antonio Williams | WR | Clemson | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 5’11” | 190 lbs
Author: Keith Ensminger | @TheSmingDynasty
Another player with a slow start to the 2025 season, Antonio Williams was a freshman breakout wide receiver in 2022 from Clemson who has steadily built his collegiate resume. On the smaller side at 5′11″ and 190 lbs, he’s accumulated 153 receptions for 1,732 yards and 17 touchdowns across 33 games. In 2024, he had his best season to the tune of 75 catches, 904 yards, and 11 TDs. In addition to pure receiving, Williams has shown versatility, adding 12 rushes for 109 yards and a rushing TD. He even adds a few pass attempts, going a perfect 3-for-3 for 68 yards and 1 TD in his career. On a team filled with wide receiver talent both past and present, Antonio Williams stands out as a veteran leader in that locker room.
Williams’s biggest strength and how he wins is with his polished route-running, reliable hands, and sudden after-catch burst. While he is not a deep threat, he shows quickness in and out of breaks and has shown sneaky versatility on those aforementioned jet sweeps and passing option plays. In the 2026 rookie class, he is likely a Day 2 receiver. As the college football season goes on and Williams gets healthy, watch his ability to separate in press coverage and how he performs on contested catches. Both could be bigger challenges for Williams against NFL corners, and any improvement in college could shift evaluators’ opinions on him from good to great.
Pick 2.03 | Ja’Kobi Lane | WR | USC | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’4” | 200 lbs
Author: Mike Johrendt | @MJohrendt23
I am a huge fan of the upcoming USC wide receiver class, as both Lemon and Ja’Kobi Lane are in line as potential first-round picks. While both players are balling out so far this year, Lane has done plenty to cement himself in the upcoming WR draft class. While only having three games of three receptions, Lane has averaged double-digit yards per reception in each contest, including his two most recent performances in which he averaged over 30 yards per catch.
Lane’s 6’4’’ frame sets him up to be a jump-ball maven in the NFL, towering over shorter DBs in the red zone. While his ability to run away from defenders immediately jumps out on tape, Lane needs to showcase his verticality a bit more to show just how well-rounded a prospect he is. His line-of-scrimmage release package is smooth, and his footwork is crisp, but if he can showcase how he high-points passes and angles his body, he could very well become the best Trojan WR in next year’s draft class.
Pick 2.04 | Kaytron Allen | RB | Penn State | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 5’11” | 217 lbs
Author: Matt Mitchell | @ReflipeWThenuz
Nicholas Singleton is considered to be one of the top RB prospects in the 2026 class. Despite his lofty status, he is not even the leading rusher on the Nittany Lions. That honor would go to his running mate, Kaytron Allen. The former 4-star recruit out of the famed IMG Academy has chosen to stick in Happy Valley despite being forced to split time with more highly touted Singleton. The duo has formed one of the best tandems in the college ranks over the last three seasons, with both racking up over 3,000 rushing yards.
Allen has proven to be the thunder to Singleton’s lightning. He brings a physical running style that punishes defenders. While not as flashy as his teammate, Allen has averaged over 5.0 ypc in every season. This year, he is off to an amazing start, leading the Nittany Lions with a robust 8.0 ypc. I believe that he will continue to see his draft stock rise throughout his Senior season. This coming Spring, I could easily see him being a Day-2 draft selection.
Pick 2.05 | Cade Klubnik | QB | Clemson | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’2” | 209 lbs
Author: John Hammersmith | @DynastyHammer
Cade Klubnik hasn’t come out of the gates strong this season, with Clemson sitting at 1–2 and his play looking uneven at times. He’s been sloppy with mechanics and decision-making in stretches, but the underlying traits are still evident. Klubnik has the dual-threat ability teams covet, with the arm strength to challenge downfield and the athleticism to extend plays or pick up yards on the ground. Even with the early struggles, his pedigree as a top recruit and flashes of high-level talent keep him firmly on the radar.
In a Superflex draft, landing Klubnik in the second round is all about projecting traits to the next level. His mobility and ability to improvise give him the kind of upside that can’t be ignored, especially in today’s NFL. If he irons out the inconsistencies and improves his processing speed, Klubnik has the tools to develop into a first-round caliber quarterback. The path may require patience, but the ceiling as a long-term starter with dual-threat production makes him a worthwhile investment.
Pick 2.06 | John Mateer | QB | Oklahoma | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’1” | 224 lbs
Author: Mychal Warno | @dynastydadmike
At this point in the draft, I felt that there was still good quarterback talent on the board, which influenced my selection of John Mateer. Mateer was a three-star recruit coming out of high school before committing to Washington State. Mateer’s best season came in 2024 when he threw for 3,139 yards and 29 touchdowns. In 2025, Mateer entered the transfer portal and transferred to Oklahoma.
Mateer ultimately transferred to Oklahoma due to a phone call with Baker Mayfield. Ironically, Mateer’s playstyle is a lot like Mayfield’s. Mateer plays with a fearless attitude and a certain amount of cockiness in his game. His ability to extend plays on the run has helped the Sooners to an undefeated record. Currently, Mateer is my QB4, and that is subject to change with continued productive quarterback play.
Pick 2.07 | Nyck Harbor | WR | South Carolina | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’5” | 235 lbs
Author: Bobby Bishop | @_bobbybishop
If you have played any of the new NCAA football games, you know Nyck Harbor. It’s hard to miss the player with 99 speed and almost maxed out size. What if I told you that he is starting to put it all together in real life? Harbor was a five-star prospect coming out of high school. He had the perfect body and elite track speed, but teams struggled to figure out his position. He played both edge rusher and wide receiver, and he wasn’t necessarily a natural at either one. Harbor is committed to playing receiver and running track at South Carolina. During his first two seasons, Harbor struggled at times to run crisp routes and catch the football. Last offseason, Harbor quit running track and fully focused on football. The early results are telling.
Nyck Harbor is going to blow away the combine. At minimum, Harbor has showcased on tape that he can be an elite deep threat receiver. He hit 22.4 MPH on his touchdown reception in Week 1. Harbor is starting to develop as a route runner. He still struggles with rounding his routes at times. Harbor’s strength is his long speed, which is lost at times with the starting and stopping that nuanced route running requires. DK Metcalf is a frequently used Pro Comp for Harbor. He is still raw, but he is improving year after year. We are still just scratching the surface of Nyck Harbor’s football career.
Pick 2.08 | Jaden Greathouse | WR | Notre Dame | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’1” | 212 lbs
Author: Keith Ensminger | @TheSmingDynasty
Break out the milk cartons. Has anyone seen Jaden Greathouse this season? His stat line through the first two games? Two catches for 41 yards. Yikes! And yet, I’ll stick with my evaluation, because if you remember watching Greathouse in the 2024 CFB Playoffs, you know there’s something there with him. In high school, he put up prolific stats in leading his team to multiple Texas state titles. At Notre Dame, though, his production has been spotty. However, the highs have been high! In the Orange Bowl against Penn State, Greathouse caught 7 passes for 105 yards, including a 54-yard score. He followed that up with 6 catches for 128 yards and 2 TDs in the title game.
Greathouse is a technically strong and physical receiver. He offers strong hands and after-catch ability more than elite straight-line speed. In the 2026 class, he likely slots into the mid-round WR group, much like Elic Ayomanor from this past rookie class. The biggest mystery about Greathouse right now, though, is why he isn’t involved at all in Notre Dame’s offense. He isn’t just having a down season. His season is non-existent! He has lost snaps to less talented receivers in Jordan Faison, Malachi Fields, and Will Pauling. As the season progresses, hopefully, Greathouse will become more involved again and we can start to look for those special physical traits on Saturdays that will help him land a role in the NFL on Sundays.
Pick 2.09 | Kenyon Sadiq | TE | Oregon | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’3” | 245 lbs
Author: Mike Johrendt | @MJohrendt23
Admittedly, my rankings of the 2026 tight end class are all over the place, solely because there are a ton of names that could be the TE1, but none that have truly stood out enough to earn that spot. And while the stat sheet for Oregon’s Kenyon Sadiq isn’t chock-full of big numbers, his game film is impressive enough to earn a look in this mock draft.
Sadiq won’t blow you away speed-wise, but be aware that meeting him in the trenches will likely not end well for you. A strong and willing blocker who seems to have improved his craft from last season, Sadiq is an impressive physical specimen who is tough to guard in the passing game. His physicality, ability to be a consistent over-the-middle threat, and versatility to line up all over the offense give Sadiq an early shot at rising up TE rankings for next year’s class — he just needs to become featured more in the Oregon passing attack, showing that he can become a consistent pass-catching option.
Pick 2.10 | Chris Brazzell II | WR | Tennessee | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’5” | 200 lbs
Author: Matt Mitchell | @ReflipeWThenuz
For my final selection of this Superflex Rookie Draft, I am going with one of my biggest risers on the season. Few players have burst onto the scene this year like Tennessee’s Chris Brazzell. The former 3-star recruit began his college career at Tulane. This year he is off to a scorching hot start. Please go and check out his crazy highlights against a stout Georgia defense. He roasted the Bulldogs for 177 yards on 6 catches and 3 scores.
Brazzell stands at an imposing 6’5” and 200 lbs. He has a really long wingspan and an excellent set of hands. It is somewhat concerning that it has taken him this long to blossom, but he offers immense upside. After the first three weeks of the season, he sits at second in the entire nation in receiving yards. Look for him to continue to put up numbers and force his way into the upper echelons of the upcoming draft. Athletes of his size and athleticism are a convincing combination. Keep an eye on this emerging prospect.
Pick 2.11 | Jamarion Miller | RB | Alabama | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 5’10” | 221 lbs
Author: John Hammersmith | @DynastyHammer
Jamarion Miller has yet to take the field in 2025 after suffering a collarbone injury during fall camp, but his 2024 season gave a clear picture of his potential. Last year, he logged 145 carries for 668 yards and 7 touchdowns, while also catching 16 passes for 155 yards and another score. At 5’10” and 220 pounds, Miller brings a sturdy, compact frame with the balance and toughness to grind out extra yards. He flashed the ability to shoulder a heavy workload, including a 28-carry performance in the Iron Bowl, and showed flashes of versatility as a pass catcher.
Looking ahead, Miller’s size and skillset project to an every-down NFL role if he can return healthy and sustain production against tougher competition. His combination of vision, burst, and contact balance fits both zone and gap schemes, and his passing-game utility raises his fantasy floor. The key for 2025 will be proving he can stay durable and efficient against SEC defenses. If he shows growth in those areas, Miller has the potential to establish himself as one of the top running backs in this class and a future NFL starter.
Pick 2.12 | Taylen Green | QB | Arkansas | 2026 Rookie Mock Draft
Height/Weight: 6’6” | 224 lbs
Author: Mychal Warno | @dynastydadmike
With the final pick of this mock draft, I went with a homer pick in Taylen Green. Living in Arkansas, I had been able to watch a lot of Green during his time with the Razorbacks. Green spent his first three years of college at Boise State, where he led them to the 2023 MWC championship, beating the UNLV Rebels, 44-20, and was named the MWC championship game MVP.
Green is a dual-threat quarterback with good size at 6’6’’. One of the cons to Green’s game was his decision-making and propensity to turn the ball over, which he has limited so far in 2025. When studying Green’s game, I see a lot of similarities to Jordan Love. If Green is matched up with a smart, offensive-minded coach in the NFL, he has the potential for a promising NFL career. The physical tools to Green are there, but he lacks the refinement in his game.
