Draft Projection: Rob Rang’s 2027 First-Round NFL Mock Draft

With the college football season in full swing and the NFL campaign rolling, FOX Sports draft analyst Rob Rang released his comprehensive 2027 first-round NFL Mock Draft. Utilizing inverse Super Bowl odds to set the selection order, Rang’s 32-pick forecast features quarterback chaos at the top, a three-pick haul for the New York Jets, and a heavy infusion of trench monsters across the board.

Let's break down how Rob projects Round 1 will unfold.
32. Cleveland Browns (from Rams)
Sam Leavitt NFL Draft Profile
- Height: 6’2”
- Weight: 205 lbs
- Age (on CFB Week 1): 21
- Position: Quarterback
- School: LSU
- Class: Junior
Closing out the first round with the draft capital acquired in the Myles Garrett trade, Cleveland doubles down on its quarterback search. Sam Leavitt brings moxie, playmaking flair, and high-level SEC experience to the Cleveland Browns, providing a high-upside signal-caller to groom under center.

"Cleveland will almost certainly target a quarterback on Day 1 of the 2027 draft. One intriguing option is Leavitt, who flashed at Arizona State and I believe will flourish at LSU with Lane Kiffin."

Buffalo adds an explosive interior disruptor to fortify their defensive front line. Ahmad Moten brings elite first-step quickness and pocket-collapsing power from the ACC, giving the Buffalo Bills a physical anchor who can penetrate backfields and disrupt opposing run schemes.

"While he needs to prove that last year’s breakout was not merely the byproduct of opponents focusing heavily on 2026 first-round edge rushers Rueben Bain Jr. (Bucs) and Akheem Mesidor (Chargers), Moten has all the traits to earn first-round consideration."

- Position: Offensive Lineman
- School: Ohio State
- Class: Senior
Baltimore adds a broad, powerful interior offensive lineman with starting tackle experience to anchor their trenches. Austin Siereveld brings balance and brute power to the Baltimore Ravens' run-heavy attack.

"Siereveld was the Buckeyes’ starting left tackle a year ago and plays with surprising balance at 6-foot-5, 325 pounds. I think he might be even better inside at guard or center due to his broad, powerful frame."

Brad Holmes stays true to Motor City's tough identity by snagging the premier interior offensive lineman in the draft. Cade Pieper brings blue-collar power and seamless center mobility to the Detroit Lions' front line.

Closing out their three-pick first-round haul, Gang Green snags an intelligent, poised quarterback who proved his mental toughness under the spotlight in South Bend. CJ Carr brings accuracy and pre-snap processing to the New York Jets.

"Carr is an intriguing fit for New York because he showed exciting awareness and accuracy as a first-year starter last year for Notre Dame and is perhaps better prepared for the mental rigors of playing in the Big Apple — given the scrutiny he’s endured with the Irish along with being the grandson of former Michigan head coach Lloyd Carr."

"The 6-foot-3, 235-pound Cole has been moved all over Georgia’s defense the past two seasons, so he doesn’t have the stats to suggest he’ll be a first-round pick. But his raw athleticism has scouts projecting him as one of this year’s breakout stars."

- Age (on CFB Week 1): 20
- Position: Wide Receiver
- School: Texas
- Class: Junior
Giving Bryce Young another lethal boundary weapon gives the Carolina Panthers an explosive perimeter duo alongside Tetairoa McMillan. Cam Coleman brings an acrobatic catch radius and explosive open-field playmaking to Charlotte.

"A springy athlete with excellent size and tracking skills, Coleman reminds me a lot of another star wideout playing in Texas: Cowboys star George Pickens."

Cam Coleman Mock Drafts
- Todd McShay (Ringer): No. 6 to Las Vegas Raiders
- Sports Illustrated 9.0 (9.23.26): No. 11 to Pittsburgh Steelers

Trevor Goosby NFL Draft Profile
- Height: 6’7”
- Weight: 312 lbs
- Age (on CFB Week 1): 21
- Position: Offensive Tackle
- School: Texas
- Class: Junior
Protecting Cam Ward's blind side becomes priority number one in Music City after shaky left tackle play last season. Trevor Goosby possesses the length, quick feet, and athletic traits required to become the premier tackle for the Tennessee Titans.

"Goosby was fantastic last season, but it was his first as a starter. If he can build upon it, he has the talent to be the first offensive lineman drafted this spring."

Trevor Goosby Mock Drafts
- Todd McShay (Ringer): No. 12 to New York Giants

Colin Simmons NFL Draft Profile
- Height: 6’3”
- Weight: 240 lbs
- Age (on CFB Week 1): 20
- Position: EDGE
- School: Texas
- Class: Junior
Injuries have depleted Atlanta's pass rush, making a high-octane edge defender an absolute necessity in Dirty Birds territory. Colin Simmons brings relentless speed-to-power conversion and backfield disruptiveness to fix the Atlanta Falcons' edge pressure.

"A former linebacker turned edge rusher following a similar path as Arvell Reese and Micah Parsons, Simmons is a one-man wrecking crew who could fix what currently ails Atlanta’s pass rush."

Colin Simmons Mock Drafts
- Todd McShay (Ringer): No. 15 to Minnesota Vikings
- Sports Illustrated 9.0 (9.23.26): No. 6 to Washington Commanders

- Height: 6’2”
- Weight: 195 lbs
- Age (on CFB Week 1): 20
- Position: Cornerback
- School: Notre Dame
- Class: Junior
Klint Kubiak's squad snags a lockdown boundary corner with elite size, smooth hips, and fluid coverage skills. Leonard Moore gives the Las Vegas Raiders a top-tier defensive back with elite instincts and ball skills.

"He's right with Derek Stingley and Patrick Surtain II as one of the cleanest cornerback prospects I’ve evaluated over the past decade."

Leonard Moore Mock Drafts
- Todd McShay (Ringer): No. 8 to New Orleans Saints
- Sports Illustrated 9.0 (9.23.26): No. 9 to Baltimore Ravens

Dylan Stewart NFL Draft Profile
- Height: 6’5”
- Weight: 245 lbs
- Age (on CFB Week 1): 20
- Position: EDGE
- School: South Carolina
- Class: Junior
Reloading the defense with an explosive pass rusher gives the Cleveland Browns a game-wrecking end opposite their established defensive core. Dylan Stewart combines rare upfield slam, bend, and length to project as a dominant All-Pro defender.

"Stewart’s blend of burst, bend and length is the building blocks of a future All-Pro."

Dylan Stewart Mock Drafts
- Todd McShay (Ringer): No. 10 to Washington Commanders

3. New York Jets
Jeremiah Smith NFL Draft Profile
- Height: 6’3”
- Weight: 223 lbs
- Age (on CFB Week 1): 20
- Position: Wide Receiver
- School: Ohio State
- Class: Junior
Gang Green lands the undisputed top overall prospect on the draft board without needing to trade up. Jeremiah Smith brings a freakish athletic frame, blazing speed, and game-breaking perimeter dominance to the New York Jets' passing game.

"With all due respect to the quarterbacks, Smith is arguably the best player in this class, with a frame, speed and star power similar to a young Julio Jones."

Jeremiah Smith Mock Drafts
- Todd McShay (Ringer): No. 4 to Tennessee Titans
- Sports Illustrated 9.0 (9.23.26): No. 1 to Houston Texans

Dante Moore NFL Draft Profile
- Height: 6’3”
- Weight: 206 lbs
- Age (on CFB Week 1): 21
- Position: Quarterback
- School: Oregon
- Class: Senior
Passing on wide receiver talent to land a blue-chip field general gives the Miami Dolphins a long-term catalyst for their offense. Dante Moore brings effortless rhythm, instinctive pocket movement, and elite accuracy to South Beach.

"He is currently a more instinctive and accurate passer than Manning and looks like a lock at this point to be among the first two players selected next spring — even if it requires another team trading up to get him."

Dante Moore Mock Drafts

- Sports Illustrated 9.0 (9.23.26): No. 3 to Atlanta Falcons

- Weight: 219 lbs
- Age (on CFB Week 1): 22
- Position: Quarterback
- School: Texas
- Class: Junior
Melding marquee star power with raw physical traits gives the Arizona Cardinals their ultimate franchise reset under center. Arch Manning entering his second full season as Texas' starter gives the desert a game-changing quarterback capable of reviving the entire organization.

"Manning isn’t without his flaws, but there are plenty of signs that he could be the sort of franchise-changer the Cardinals need to become relevant again."
