Just when you thought the Cleveland Browns were done trading for the night, they pulled out one more wildcard, making a deal with the Los Angeles Chargers for the 2026 NFL Draft.

Just after trading down with the New York Giants (No. 74 with the Giants, receiving picks No. 105 (4th round) and No. 145 (5th round) as well as a 2027 4th round pick), the Browns traded pick No. 105, No. 145 and No. 206 to the Chargers to get No. 86.

With that No. 86 pick, the Browns picked up University of Florida offensive tackle Austin Barber.

The Browns started their night drafting offense with Washington wide receiver Denzel Boston (No. 39), then using their 49ers No. 58 pick to add some defense with Toledo safety Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, and now No. 86 Barber.

Here are the Browns’ 2026 draft picks:

• Round 1: No. 9 overall: OT Spencer Fano
• Round 1: No. 24 overall: KC Concepcion
• Round 2: No. 39 overall: WR Denzel Boston
• Round 2: No. 58 overall: S Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
• Round 3: No. 86 overall: OT Austin Barber
• Round 5: No. 146 overall
• Round 5: No. 148 overall (from Chiefs)
• Round 5: No. 149 overall (from Bengals)
• Round 5: No. 152 overall (from 49ers)
• Round 7: No. 248 overall (from Seahawks)

The Pittsburgh Steelers have selected Georgia cornerback Daylen Everette with the 85th pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. It is their second pick in the third round, using their first (No. 76 overall) on Penn State quarterback Drew Allar.

Everette is one of the fastest players in the draft, running a 4.38 40 at the NFL Combine. Additionally, he had a RAS (Real Athletic Score) of 9.89/10. He had five interceptions in his career with the Bulldogs.

The Steelers’ cornerback room is now as deep as any in the NFL. Along with Joey Porter Jr, Pittsburgh re-signed Asante Samuel Jr and signed Jamel Dean in free agency. They also have Brandin Echols, who was productive in 2025. Everette now joins that group with the hopes of him becoming a solid contributor, but without the pressure of needing to get a big snap count right away.
