Browns Add 'Mammoth' Offensive Tackle with Extra First-Round Pick in 2026 NFL Mock Draft

Browns Add ‘Mammoth’ Offensive Tackle with Extra First-Round Pick in 2026 NFL Mock Draft originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

We don’t know who will be under center for the Cleveland Browns in 2025, but it’s safe to assume it’ll be one of the four quarterbacks on the offseason roster.

But what about beyond next season?

There is much speculation that none of the four – Joe Flacco, Kenny Pickett, Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders – will survive as the starter beyond the upcoming campaign.

In PFSN’s way-too-early 2026 NFL Draft, it predicted the Browns would select Arch Manning first overall.

Afterward, in PFSN’s scenario, Cleveland attempts to give Manning some protection. The Browns gained the No. 8 overall pick in the 2024 draft day deal that gave Jacksonville the No. 2 pick.

And with that pick, the Browns select a “mammoth offensive tackle with a sky-high ceiling,” per PFSN.

ROUND 1, PICK 8 – Cleveland Browns: Kadyn Proctor, OT, Alabama

“At a hulking 6-7 and 360 pounds, Kadyn Proctor is a mammoth offensive tackle with a sky-high ceiling,” PFSN wrote. “The Alabama Crimson Tide’s left tackle has rare physical traits without sacrificing athletic gifts. His physical profile alone projects him as a high selection. Proctor combines intense power and leg drive to displace defenders in the run game while possessing the nasty demeanor required to dominate on the ground. He also boasts a strong anchor in pass protection.

“Yet, there are still some technical things to clean up this season, including a tendency to bend at the waist.”
