Patriots Select Jam Miller with 245th Pick
The New England Patriots have selected Alabama running back Jam Miller with the 245th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Miller averaged 4.6 yards per carry across his four seasons with the Crimson Tide, but he offers little in the passing game. He has NFL size and enough athleticism to handle change-of-pace duties behind Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson, but his potential on special teams is what will help him stick with the team out of camp. While he is unlikely to make a fantasy impact in redraft leagues, Stevenson is 28 years old with a history of injuries, making Miller worthy of a post-rookie draft waiver wire stash in deeper dynasty leagues.

Colts Select Seth McGowan with Pick No. 237
The Indianapolis Colts have selected Kentucky running back Seth McGowan with the 237th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Following stints with Oklahoma and New Mexico State, McGowan scored 12 rushing touchdowns in his lone season with the Wildcats. He profiles as an early-down, between-the-tackles runner who could struggle to find the field without a major injury in front of him. Jonathan Taylor was able to play in all 17 games in 2025, and the Colts spent a fifth-round pick on DJ Giddens in last year's draft, so without much of a receiving profile in his background, McGowan is unlikely to show up on many fantasy radars.

Patriots Take Quarterback Behren Morton with Pick No. 234
The New England Patriots have selected Texas Tech quarterback Behren Morton with the 234th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. A former four-star recruit, he spent five seasons at Texas Tech, starting games early into his career after taking over for an injured Tyler Shough and becoming the full-time starter and a team captain by 2024. Injuries have forced him to miss time throughout his career, but he has produced whenever he's been given the chance, and with time, he could develop into a quality NFL backup. The Patriots recently released veteran backup Joshua Dobbs, leaving Tommy DeVito as the only quarterback on the roster behind Drake Maye. Morton has a chance to stick in Foxboro as an emergency third quarterback who could eventually threaten for primary backup duties.

Chiefs Draft Garrett Nussmeier With 249th Overall Pick
The Kansas City Chiefs have selected LSU quarterback prospect Garrett Nussmeier with the 249th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Nussmeier was widely projected as a Day 2 pick throughout the offseason, so to see him still on the board within the final 10 selections was quite surprising. He racked up 4,052 passing yards, 29 passing touchdowns, and 12 interceptions in 2024, but his statistics regressed in 2025 as he was limited to just nine games. In addition to the stats, part of the reason for his late selection was a medical concern that emerged in the pre-draft process, as Nussmeier was diagnosed with a spinal cyst pressing on a nerve. His tumble down the draft board ultimately ends with the Chiefs, who will bring him in as a developmental depth option. Patrick Mahomes II (knee) might not be ready for Week 1, so while Justin Fields is the early favorite to start the season opener, Nussmeier could have a small chance to go in and compete with the former Jets signal caller.

Browns Draft Carsen Ryan in the Seventh Round
The Cleveland Browns have selected BYU tight end prospect Carsen Ryan with the 248th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Ryan played for three different schools throughout his college career, culminating in one lone season with BYU. It was easily the best season of his time in the NCAA as he caught 45 passes for 620 yards and three touchdowns. The Browns have not been shy about their desire to add a ton of names to the tight end room. They brought in free agent Jack Stoll to offer depth behind Harold Fannin Jr. and Blake Whiteheart, and now they've drafted both Ryan and Joe Royer on Day 3. With such a crowded position group, Ryan is low on the pecking order and faces an uphill battle to achieve meaningful playing time. He can be avoided in most fantasy football leagues.

Titans Select Jaren Kanak with Pick No. 225
The Tennessee Titans have selected Oklahoma tight end Jaren Kanak with the 225th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. A one-year starter at tight end, Kanak was a high school quarterback who spent most of his time in college on the defensive side of the ball. After logging 103 career tackles as a linebacker, he mved to tight end in 2025 and made 44 receptions for 530 yards. A tough and versatile player, he could find the field in a variety of ways for new offensive coordinator Brian Daboll, a la Taysom Hill. While he will almost certainly go overlooked in dynasty rookie drafts, Kanak's is a name to remember as an eventual contributor in deeper leagues.

Commanders Take Quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis with Pick No. 223
The Washington Commanders have selected Rutgers quarterback Athan Kaliakmanis with the 223rd overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Kaliakmanis spent two years at Rutgers after two seasons with Minnesota, and he showed improvement year over year. He completed more than 60% of his passes for the first time in 2025, setting career highs in passing yards and touchdowns. Kaliakmanis has NFL size at 6'2" and 216 pounds, and his improved processing could help him stick on the Commanders roster as a third quarterback behind Jayden Daniels and Marcus Mariota.

Texans Select Lewis Bond with Pick No. 204
The Houston Texans have selected Boston College wide receiver Lewis Bond with the 204th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Bond saw increased production across his five years with the Eagles, leading the team with 88 catches for 993 yards in 2025, though he found the end zone only once. Operating primarily out of the slot and winning with toughness and strong hands, his lack of size or elite traits may catch up to him as he makes the jump up to NFL competition. With Tank Dell and Jaylin Noel already working in a similar space for the Texans, Bond could struggle to find the field and is unlikely to make any fantasy impact early in his career.

Navy's Eli Heidenreich Goes to the Steelers at No. 230 Overall
The Pittsburgh Steelers have selected Navy running back prospect Eli Heidenreich with the 230th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. A three-year contributor in college, Heidenreich posted elite numbers in the passing game. Last season, he had 499 rushing yards, 51 catches, 941 receiving yards, and nine total touchdowns. He also set a new all-time program record with six touchdown receptions in a single season. The pass-catching numbers are very impressive, and he should continue to have a role on passing downs at the next level. There's a decent chance that he'll be able to carve out some third-down snaps in the Steelers' backfield behind Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle.

Jaguars Double Dip at Wide Receiver with C.J. Williams at Pick No. 203
The Jacksonville Jaguars have selected Stanford wide receiver C.J. Williams with the 203rd overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. A former four-star recruit, Williams spent time at USC and Wisconsin before landing at Stanford for one year, leading the Cardinal in targets, receptions, yards, and touchdowns in 2025. A big-bodied outside receiver, he shone in a six-game mid-season stretch in which he topped 100 yards four times while scoring four touchdowns. Unfortunately, Williams' collegiate career has been plagued by inconsistency, and with an already crowded receiver room in Jacksonville, he will likely need to contribute on special teams to earn a roster spot out of camp.

Rams Select CJ Daniels with 197th Pick
The Los Angeles Rams have selected Miami (FL) wide receiver CJ Daniels with the 197th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. A 24-year-old prospect, Daniels spent six seasons at three different schools, topping 1,000 yards once in a career-best 2023 season at Liberty that he was unable to replicate at either LSU or Miami. Lacking any truly elite traits, he proved himself to be a crafty route runner and an important piece of the Hurricanes' deep playoff run. He projects most comfortably as a big slot at the next level, and while the Rams have found recent success with a Day 3 pick of a similar archetype, Daniels is more likely to make his mark on special teams than as an impactful fantasy option.

Bengals Select Jack Endries at No. 221 Overall
The Cincinnati Bengals have selected Texas tight end prospect Jack Endries with the 221st overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. He was a three-year contributor in college, spending two seasons at California and one at Texas. He had a career-low 33 catches and 346 yards in 2025, but he also scored a career-high three touchdowns. Although his production slid a little, it was encouraging to see Endries remain involved while making the jump to the SEC. At 6-foot-5, he's a big-bodied tight end who is capable of making contested catches. He projects as a rotational pass-catching option for the Bengals behind Drew Sample and Mike Gesicki.

Raiders Select Malik Benson with 195th Pick
The Las Vegas Raiders have selected Oregon wide receiver Malik Benson with the 195th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. A deep ball specialist, Benson had his most productive season as a senior for the Ducks after beginning in JUCO and making stops at Alabama and Florida State. His game lacks nuance, but he showcased his elite speed by running a 4.37 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine, and he now lands with a team that has historically valued receivers who can play vertically. Benson joins a receiver room of Jalen Nailor, Tre Tucker, Jack Bech, and Dont'e Thornton Jr., all of whom are likely to slot in behind Brock Bowers and Ashton Jeanty in the target pecking order. Benson will likely need to find a special teams role to make the team out of camp, but he could eventually offer upside in best ball only leagues.

Cowboys Select Anthony Smith in the Seventh Round
The Dallas Cowboys have selected East Carolina wide receiver prospect Anthony Smith with the 218th overall pick in the seventh round of the 2026 NFL Draft. An older prospect at 24 years old, Smith spent four seasons at NC State, followed by two at ECU. During his sixth and final collegiate campaign, he caught 64 passes for 1,053 yards and seven touchdowns. He also had a 45-yard rushing touchdown. His 40-yard dash time is in the low 4.40s, and he has the ability to stretch the field on offense. At the moment, he projects as a developmental depth receiver in Dallas, where he'll be blocked on the depth chart by players like CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, and Ryan Flournoy, among others. He can be avoided in most fantasy football leagues.

Commanders Add Running Back Competition with Kaytron Allen at Pick No. 187
The Washington Commanders have selected Penn State running back Kaytron Allen with the 187th overall pick in the sixth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Washington was one of the teams linked to Notre Dame's Jeremiyah Love at the top of the first round, but instead, they addressed the position 180 picks later with the big-bodied Nittany Lion. For four seasons, Allen shared Penn State's backfield with Nicholas Singleton, who went to the Titans in the 5th round. Without possessing the speed or natural athleticism of Singleton, Allen leaned on his vision and physicality to make him the school's all-time leading rusher. He regularly got stronger late in games, leading the FBS with 8.2 yards per carry in the fourth quarter as a senior. In a room featuring Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Rachaad White, and Jerome Ford, Allen has both the experience and ability to earn a meaningful role out of the gate.
