Philadelphia Eagles Draft Picks, Grades for Selections in NFL Draft

  • On Thursday, the Cleveland Browns selected Utah offensive tackle Spencer Fano with the ninth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. The selection addresses a glaring need for the Browns, who sought to fortify their offensive line early.
  • General manager Andrew Berry executed a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs, moving back three spots from the sixth pick to acquire Fano. In exchange, Cleveland gained 74th and 148th overall picks.
  • Elsewhere in the first round, the Carolina Panthers selected Georgia tackle Monroe Freeling at 19th overall, while the Washington Commanders drafted Ohio State linebacker Sonny Styles seventh. Each move bolstered team rosters.
  • Head coach Todd Monken stated he is "jacked" to add Fano to the roster. Monken confirmed the Utah product will start at left tackle, aiming to protect the quarterback.
  • With 10 picks remaining, Cleveland retains draft flexibility as the event continues. The team remains focused on addressing offensive needs, particularly at receiver, as they build for 2026.
