Here's how USA TODAY's latest mock draft currently projects draft day will play out for the former college star. Keldric Faulk 2026 NFL Draft prediction: Pick No. 26 overall, Buffalo Bills Nate Davis' Fit Analysis: An intriguing gem in need of some polish, Faulk can bolster an area of concern given the Bills wideout issue seems solved by the trade for DJ Moore.
Faulk should be a three-down player who can kick inside on passing downs. He also has a reputation as being an excellent locker-room presence, always a huge bonus. Ayrton Ostly's Big Board Rank: No.
14 Faulk is one of the youngest prospects in the class and with impressive tools at 6-foot-6 and 285 pounds. He can align inside or outside for a defensive play-caller with strength and physicality at the point of attack. His recognition on running plays pairs well with a high motor as a pass rush.
