Seven Day-3 Gems Poised to Impact the 2026 NFL Season

Sports Illustrated highlights seven Day 3 rookies (Rounds 4–7) likely to make an early impact in 2026: Jermod McCoy (Raiders) at cornerback after ACL rehab; Kaden Wetjen (Steelers) as an elite returner; Kendal Daniels (Falcons) at linebacker under Jeff Ulbrich; Kyle Louis (Dolphins) at linebacker with playmaking ability; Zakee Wheatley (Panthers) at safety with range; Riley Nowakowski (Steelers) as a versatile fullback/TE-type option; and Kaytron Allen (Commanders) as a downhill, short-yardage back. The piece notes Day 3 talent is thinner, but these players’ schemes and roles could yield immediate contributions.

Patriots Day 3: Six picks deepen depth with mixed results

The Patriots’ Day 3 class added six players to bolster the roster on both sides of the ball, with Kyle Williams positioned to grow into a bigger role and no punter added this draft. The haul creates competition at cornerback (Marcellas Dial Jr. and Kobee Minor) and along the offensive line (Marcus Bryant and James Hudson), while Dametrious Crownover looks like the favorite for the fourth tackle spot ahead of others. RBs Lan Larison and Terrell Jennings face uphill battles behind Jam Miller, and Drake Maye and Efton Chism III are noted as honorable mentions rather than immediate contributors.

Bengals Build Offensive Depth on Day 3 of the NFL Draft

The Bengals, after prioritizing defense in the 2025 offseason, used Day 3 of the NFL Draft to add depth on offense: Round 4 center Connor Lew (Auburn), Round 5 WR Colbie Young (Georgia), Round 6 OL Brian Parker II (Duke), and Round 7 TE Jack Endries (Texas) plus DT Landon Robinson (Navy). Cincy Jungle grades Lew B+, Young C, Parker II A+, Endries A, and Robinson A, reflecting a plan to backfill offensive depth behind a retooled defense.

Steelers' Day 3 Draft Haul Draws Mixed Grades From Analysts

Overall, it’s a credible Day 3 haul fitting Omar Khan’s pattern of finding contributors in late rounds.
