Another NFL mock draft has surfaced for 2026 and this one is very bullish on Clemson football.
In case you haven't noticed, everyone seems to be high on Clemson's 2026 draft class and that includes some of the top experts in the game.
One of those top experts, Todd McShay, just dropped his way-too-early NFL mock draft for 2026 and it includes the most Tigers that I've seen in any first-round projection for next year.

McShay posted his first-round mock on Twitter on Monday morning and it had some surprising additions to it from Clemson. We've all seen the usual suspects like Cade Klubnik, Peter Woods, and T.J. Parker in other first-round mocks, but McShay's has Avieon Terrell, Antonio Williams, and Blake Miller, too.
The most surprising part of this entire mock draft? Four of these Clemson stars are projected top-10 picks, per McShay.
That's right, he has Woods at No. 3, Klubnik at No. 5, Miller at No. 8, and Parker at No. 9 to round out the Tigers in the top 10. He has Terrell at No. 27 and Williams at No. 28. That would make six first-round picks for Clemson in the 2026 NFL Draft which would be the most since 2019 (3) and would double the most in program history for one class. That would also just be one fewer than all the first-round picks for Clemson since 2020 (7).
In case you needed another reason to be excited about the 2025 season, just think that Clemson could legitimately have six first-round picks. Six elite NFL prospects on one roster?
Yeah, it's a national title or bust season.
