The Washington Commanders selected Penn State RB Kaytron Allen in Round 6 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Allen brings one of the most well-rounded profiles in this RB class. The four-year contributor rushed for 867 yards and 10 TDs as a freshman. Over his final two seasons, Allen piled up 2,411 yards and 23 TDs on 430 carries, out-producing teammate Nick Singleton. Allen finished as Penn State’s all-time leading rusher with 4,180 yards. Among the 20 RBs invited to the NFL Combine, Allen ranked second in 2025 rushing market share (61.2%), and fifth in yards after contact per attempt (3.77). He ranked fourth in 2025 missed tackles forced per attempt (0.27) and 20th in receiving yards per route run (0.48). He is currently 23 years old.

The Cleveland Browns selected Arkansas QB Taylen Green in Round 6 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Green started for two years at Boise State before transferring to Arkansas for his final two seasons. He combined for 5,868 passing yards with 34 passing TDs and 20 INTs over those two years. Green also added 1,379 rushing yards and 16 rushing TDs. Green’s game was bult on his elite athleticism. He ran a 4.36 40 with a 43.50” Vertical and 11’02” Broad Jump at 6’5 3/4 and 227 pounds. Among the 15 QBs invited to the NFL Combine, Green ranked 15th in 2025 adjusted completion percentage (71.3%), and sixth in aDOT (9.5). He ranked 12th in 2025 Big Time Throw rate (3.2%) and second in rushing yards per game when removing sacks (82.8). He is currently 23 years old.

The Miami Dolphins selected Mississippi State TE Seydou Traore in Round 5 of the NFL Draft. Traore is a part of the NFL’s International Player Pathway (IPP) program, meaning he won’t count against the Dolphins’ roster. Traore was not invited to the NFL Combine. The Dolphins previously drafted TE Will Kacmarek in Round 3. Traore does offer more receiving upside than Kacmarek. Traore caught 35 passes for 369 yards and 4 TDs in 2025. He broke out in 2022 going 50-655-4 at Arkansas State. Traore only sits at 233 pounds, playing mainly in the slot this past season.

The Philadelphia Eagles selected North Dakota State QB Cole Payton in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Payton played a Taysom Hill type role in 2023 & 2024, rushing for 414 yards over those two seasons. He won the QB job in 2025. As a one-year starter, Payton threw for 2,719 yards with 16 TDs and 4 INTs. He also rushed for 777 yards and 13 TDs. An elite athlete, Payton had a 9.87 RAS with a 4.56 40 at 6’3 and 232 pounds. He also ranked 99th percentile in Vertical (40”) and Broad Jump (10’10”). Among the 15 QBs invited to the NFL Combine, Payton ranked fifth in 2025 adjusted completion percentage (78.3%), and first in aDOT (12.3). He also ranked first in 2025 Big Time Throw rate (11.3%) and fourth in rushing yards per game when removing sacks (39.8). He is currently 23 years old.

The Miami Dolphins selected Missouri WR Kevin Coleman Jr. in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Coleman’s college career was a tour. He opened at Jackson State under Deion Sanders, transferred to Louisville for 2023, and then broke out at Mississippi State in 2024. Coleman caught 74 balls for 932 yards and 6 TDs that year – all team highs. His 2.32 yards per route ranked 57th among 260 FBS WRs with 50+ targets. Coleman transferred to Missouri this past year and again led his team in receptions (66) and receiving yards (732). He ranked 18th in targets per route (0.26) and 26th in yards per route (2.23) among the 49 WRs invited to this year’s Combine. Coleman goes just 5’10, 179 pounds and looks like a slot-only player in the NFL. He logged 92% of his snaps inside in college and registered a career 9.5-yard average target depth. That leaves him with a relatively unexciting fantasy ceiling.

The Kansas City Chiefs selected Cincinnati WR Cyrus Allen in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Allen spent his first two college seasons at Louisiana Tech, finshing third on the team with 500 receiving yards as a freshman and second with 778 as a sophomore. Allen transferred to Texas A&M for his junior campaign but suffered a season-ending arm injury in November. Allen wrapped up his college career at Cincinnati, where he led the Bearcats in all major receiving categories. Allen’s 13 TDs were tied for third most in the FBS. He also posted strong advanced metrics: a 32.8% dominator rating and 2.42 yards per route. Both marks ranked top-16 among 52 of the top WRs in this year’s class. Allen is undersized at 5’11, 183 pounds with middling athleticism (4.49-second 40 time, 36-inch vertical). But he’s a twitchy route runner with plus ball skills. His most likely path to NFL playing time is in the slot, where he ran 92% of his routes last year.

The Baltimore Ravens selected Clemson RB Adam Randall in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Randall played WR until 2024 but switched to full-time RB late that season. In 2025, he led Clemson with 814 rushing yards and 10 TDs, commanding a 65.1% carry share and earning clear trust from the coaching staff. At 6’2, 235 pounds, Randall brings rare size for a converted receiver. That background shows up in the passing game, where he snagged 36 passes for 254 yards. Among the 20 RBs invited to the NFL Combine, Randall ranked fifth in 2025 rushing market share (49.5%), and 13th in yards after contact per attempt (3.13). He ranked 15th in 2025 missed tackles forced per attempt (0.19) and 11th in receiving yards per route run (0.91). He is currently 21 years old.

The Baltimore Ravens selected Alabama TE Josh Cuevas in Round 5 of the NFL Draft. The Ravens took Cuevas after selecting TE Matthew Hibner in Round 4. Cuevas flashed a bit as a receiver with 37 catches for 411 yards and 4 TDs. He also offers enough blocking upside to compete with Hibner for the No. 2 spot on the Ravens. Among the 27 TEs who attended the NFL Combine, Cuevas ranked 13th in team market share of of receptions (15.4%) and 14th in team market share of receiving yards (14.0%). He ranked 15th in yards per team pass attempt (1.15) and 22nd in yards per route run (1.25).

The Cleveland Browns selected Cincinnati TE Joe Royer in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. A former four-star TE at Ohio State, he transferred back home to Cincinnati in 2024. Royer immediately won the starting job. Royer showed receiving promise with a 50-521-3 line in 2024. He took a slight step back in 2025 (29-416-4) with the Bearcats needing more blocking help. Royer spent 49.5% of his snaps at Cincinnati in the slot and 44.1% inline. He showed success in run and pass blocking and created mismatches against slot CBs and LBs. Among the 27 TEs invited to the NFL Combine, Royer ranked 21st in 2025 aDOT (6.2), and 13th in team market share of receiving yards (14.4%). He ranked 13th in 2025 receiving yards per team pass attempt (1.21) and 14th in receiving yards per route run (1.49). He is currently 24 years old.

The Pittsburgh Steelers drafted Indiana TE Riley Nowakowski in Round 5 of the NFL Draft. Nowakowski was an in-line blocker and safety valve for QB Fernando Mendoza this season at Indiana. Among the 27 TEs who attended the NFL Combine, Nowakowski ranked 15th in receiving yard market share (13.7%) and 11th in yards per team pass attempt (1.25). He also ranked ninth in yards per route run (1.68).

The Detroit Lions selected Kentucky WR Kendrick Law in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. A top recruit out of high school, Law opened his college career at Alabama. He managed only 33 catches over three seasons there, even as the Crimson Tide went through a relatively underwhelming stretch at WR. A transfer to Kentucky this past year brought career highs across the board: 53 catches, 540 yards, and 3 TDs. The catches and yards led the team, although his 21.1% dominator rating ranked just 31st among 49 WRs at the Combine. Law was a short-range maven for the Wildcats, registering a 3.4-yard average target depth. 36 of his 53 catches (68%) came behind the line of scrimmage. Law was excellent with the ball in his hands, though, forcing 14 missed tackles and averaging 9.5 yards after catch per reception. That latter mark ranked fourth among 270 FBS WRs with 50+ targets last year. Law helped his case at the Combine, earning a 9.60 Relative Athletic Score at 5’11 and 203 pounds. His game needs a lot of refinement, but the athleticism and open-field ability gives Law a chance to develop into a starting slot receiver in the NFL.

The Tennessee Titans selected Penn State RB Nicholas Singleton in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Singleton brings rare straight-line speed for his size and a slashing style. He’s also one of the top pass-catching backs. Penn State never unleashed him as a true workhorse, but he did play alongside four-star recruit Kaytron Allen. The duo split carries near-evenly across 2022-23 before Allen led 15.3 to 10.9 over the past two seasons. That’s concerning for Singleton’s usage projection. Among the 20 RBs invited to the NFL Combine, Singleton ranked 18th in 2025 rushing market share (25.8%), and in yards after contact per attempt (2.69). He ranked 19th in 2025 missed tackles forced per attempt (0.15) and fifth in receiving yards per route run (1.52). He is currently 22 years old.

The Jacksonville Jaguars selected Houston TE Tanner Koziol in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Koziol was one of the most productive TEs in college football over the past two seasons. In fact, his 168 receptions were tops among all FBS players. Koziol posted a 94-839-8 line at Ball State in 2024, leading the team in all three categories. He took a step up in competition at Houston last year and pumped out 74 catches for 727 yards and 6 TDs. Koziol’s 27.7% dominator rating (share of team’s receiving yards + TDs) led the top 27 TEs in this year’s class. His 2.26 yards per route ranked second to only Eli Stowers. Koziol didn’t do much work downfield in college, with a career 8.1-yard average target depth. But he caught over 70% of his targets and scored on 10% of his receptions. Koziol checked in at 6’7, 247 pounds at the Combine and earned a 9.58 Relative Athletic Score. He checks a ton of boxes and is one of our favorite sleepers in this TE class.

The Kansas City Chiefs selected Nebraska RB Emmett Johnson in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Johnson’s college path wasn’t linear. He arrived as an overlooked recruit, redshirted, and then climbed past veteran competition before losing touches in 2024. Even in a split backfield, his receiving stood out, culminating in a 39-catch season that foreshadowed a larger role. When Nebraska committed fully in 2025, Johnson responded with 1,451 rushing yards and a class-high 46 receptions. Among the 20 RBs invited to the NFL Combine, Johnson ranked first in 2025 rushing market share (82.4%), and 15th in yards after contact per attempt (2.95). He ranked fourth in 2025 missed tackles forced per attempt (0.27) and sixth in receiving yards per route run (1.27). He is currently 22 years old.

The Denver Broncos selected NC State TE Justin Joly in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Joly entered college as a two-star WR at 190 pounds. He committed to UConn, bulked up to 228, and played a WR/TE hybrid role. He led the team in receiving as a sophomore, finishing with a 56-578-2 line. A transfer to NC State expanded his role at a higher level. He added weight to reach 251 pounds and totaled 92-1,150-11 over two seasons with the Wolfpack. Among the 27 TEs invited to the NFL Combine, Joly ranked 14th in 2025 aDOT (7.6), and 10th in team market share of receiving yards (18.6%). He ranked ninth in 2025 receiving yards per team pass attempt (1.38) and seventh in receiving yards per route run (1.78). He is currently 21 years old.

The Arizona Cardinals selected Texas Tech WR Reggie Virgil in Round 5 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Virgil caught just two passes across his first two seasons at Miami (Ohio) before grabbing a starting role in 2024. He earned second-team All-MAC honors that season, finishing second on the team with 816 receiving yards and first with 9 receiving TDs. Virgil parlayed that season into a move to Texas Tech this past year. There, he tallied a career-high and team-high 57 catches for 705 yards and 6 scores. Virgil mustered just 1.50 yards per route, though, ranking 44th among 49 WRs invited to this year’s Combine. The overall production profile is uninspiring, although it’s worth noting that Virgil is still only 21 and played QB up until 2020. That gives him more room for growth than the average rookie. But Virgil is ultimately unlikely to emerge as a real fantasy asset.

The Cincinnati Bengals selected Georgia WR Colbie Young in Round 4 of the 2026 NFL Draft. A no-star recruit out of high school, Young started his college career at Lackawanna. After posting a 24-472-9 line in 2021, he made a big step up in class at Miami. Young made an immediate impact there, leading the Canes with 5 receiving scores and ranking second on the team with 367 receiving yards in 2022. He finished third in catches (47), yards (563), and TDs (5) as a sophomore. Young then transferred to Georgia, where his career got off track. He was suspended from the team and missed the final 9 games of 2024 after being arrested for battery and assault. (Young eventually pled no contest to a lesser charge of disorderly conduct and received 12 months probation.) Then he missed six games this past year with a fractured left fibula. When he was on the field, Young averaged just 2.8 catches and 39.0 yards per game. He at least averaged a career-best 2.30 yards per route last year. Young goes 6’5, 218 pounds with deceptive speed and quickness. His route running needs work, but the size and early-career production make Young worth monitoring.

The New Orleans Saints selected North Dakota State WR Bryce Lance in Round 4 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Like his brother Trey, Lance starred at North Dakota State. He moved into the starting lineup in 2024 and immediately delivered. He posted back-to-back 1,000- yard seasons and earned first-team allconference honors both years. Lance brings ideal boundary size and vertical juice. He averaged 21.2 yards per catch in 2025 and posted an elite 3.57 yards per route run, one of the strongest efficiency marks in the class. The tape matches the numbers. Lance wins downfield with body control, tracking ability, and finishing strength. Competition level and age (25 in September) work against Lance

The Baltimore Ravens selected SMU TE Matthew Hibner in Round 4 of the NFL Draft. Hibner started his career at Michigan, playing primarily special teams, before transferring to SMU. He achieved career highs going 31-436-4 for the Mustangs. Among the 27 TEs invited to the NFL Combine, Hibner ranked third in average depth of target (8.8) and 20th in 2025 yards per route run (1.37). He ranked 18th in 2025 market share of receptions (12.9%) and 12th in market share of receiving yards (18.3%).

The Buffalo Bills selected UConn WR Skyler Bell in Round 4 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Bell caught 69 passes for 756 yards and 6 TDs across three seasons at Wisconsin before transferring to UConn in 2024. There, he became the program’s first consensus first-team All-American in 2025. He ranked fourth nationally in receptions, second in yards, and tied for third in TD catches. Bell offers inside-outside flexibility, running 39.1% of his collegiate routes from the slot. He also ranked eighth among qualifying WRs with 3.14 yards per route. At 6’0, 192 pounds, Bell aced the NFL Combine with a 4.40 forty-yard dash, a 41-inch vertical, and an 11-foot, 1-inch broad jump.
