# Mike Renner: Renner ranks the top 10 offensive tackle prospects in the upcoming draft class and assigns each an early draft grade, headlined by Texas's Trevor Goosby as a top-10 pick, with Jordan Seaton a first-rounder who should go higher than Olu Fashanu's 11th-overall slot and Cayden Green likely the first guard drafted. **Claimed:** Aug 13, 2026 **Pundit:** Mike Renner — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/mike-renner **Outlet:** CBS Sports — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/cbs-sports **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/2027-nfl-draft-rankings-top-10-offensive-tackles/ 13 checkable claims — 11 mock draft picks, 1 position order call and 1 top player list — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call. It names 10 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. > With a good season, he'll likely be drafted higher than Fashanu's 11th-overall selection. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Cayden Green to be 1st guard off the board** - Kind: Position Order Calls · About: Cayden Green - Verdict: not settled yet - **Trevor Goosby to be picked “Top 10” (picks 1–10)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Trevor Goosby - Verdict: not settled yet - **Niki Prongos to be picked “Early Day 2” (picks 33–67)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Niki Prongos - Verdict: not settled yet - **Cayden Green to be picked “Early Day 2” (picks 33–67)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Cayden Green - Verdict: not settled yet - **Trevor Lauck to be picked “Early Day 2” (picks 33–67)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Trevor Lauck - Verdict: not settled yet - **Melvin Siani to be picked “Late Day 2” (picks 67–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Melvin Siani - Verdict: not settled yet - **Elijah Paige to be picked “Day 2” (picks 33–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Elijah Paige - Verdict: not settled yet - **Ian Moore to be picked “Early Day 2” (picks 33–67)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Ian Moore - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jordan Seaton to be picked “higher than Fashanu's 11th-overall selection”** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Jordan Seaton - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jordan Seaton to be picked “Round 1”** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Jordan Seaton - Verdict: not settled yet - **Zalance Heard to be picked “Early Day 2” (picks 33–67)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Zalance Heard - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jacarrius Peak to be picked “Day 2” (picks 33–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Jacarrius Peak - Verdict: not settled yet - “Positional rankings ...
