# Ryan Wilson: Wilson's 2027 first-round mock draft has Ohio State WR Jeremiah Smith going No. 1 overall to the Chargers, five quarterbacks taken in Round 1 (Mensah first among them), and the Browns trading up for Drew Mestemaker. **Claimed:** Nov 2, 2026 **Pundit:** Ryan Wilson — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/ryan-wilson **Outlet:** CBS Sports — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/cbs-sports **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/ryan-wilsons-2027-nfl-mock-draft-browns-trade-up-for-qb/ 33 checkable claims — 32 mock draft picks and 1 position order call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 60 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. Of the 16 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 6 and below it on 10. > Best player in college football, best player in the draft. Don't overthink it. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa to be picked at number 29** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa, Denver Broncos -
