Draft Day Quick Guide
The 2026 NFL Draft is complete. 7 of 11 Oregon Ducks were selected, with 2 in Round 1.
First Round: Results + Remaining
Two Ducks went in Round 1. The Jets took Kenyon Sadiq at No. 16, and the Bears took Dillon Thieneman at No. 25. Emmanuel Pregnon did not land in the first, which matched the consensus R2 reads from Brugler and Kiper more than the PFF R1 projection. He is in play early Friday. Eight Ducks in Round 1 over Lanning's seven years. The pipeline is real.
Kenyon Sadiq
Dillon Thieneman
Emmanuel Pregnon
Day 2 Prospects
The middle rounds are where Lanning's development model pays off. Both of these players earned starting jobs, played in the CFP, and raised their stock through performance.
Day 3 and Beyond
The depth of this class is what makes it historic. Oregon could have 8-10 players hear their names across all seven rounds, and even the undrafted free agents were contributors on a 13-2 team.
Pro Day: March 17, 2026
16 Ducks worked out at the Moshofsky Center. 31 of 32 NFL teams sent scouts, position coaches, and at least one general manager. Only the Rams were absent.

The Pipeline
This is what Dan Lanning is building. The 2026 class is not an accident. It is the result of recruiting five-stars, developing transfers, and creating a culture where players get better every year. From Penei Sewell to Kenyon Sadiq, the Oregon-to-NFL pipeline is now one of the three or four best in college football.

At the 2026 NFL Combine he ran a 4.39-second 40-yard dash, the fastest ever by a tight end, breaking Vernon Davis and Dorin Dickerson's 4.40 mark. He was selected by the New York Jets with the No. 16 overall pick in Round 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft, becoming Oregon's first first-round tight end since Russ Francis in 1975.
Dillon Thieneman is a safety from Oregon. He transferred from Purdue in December 2024 and in his one Oregon season had 92 tackles, 2 INTs, 7 pass breakups, and a 90.2 PFF coverage grade. He was selected by the Chicago Bears with the No. 25 overall pick in Round 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft, ending the NFL's longest defensive first-round drought (Chicago's first defensive R1 pick since 2018).
Emmanuel Pregnon is an offensive guard who played at Wyoming, USC, and Oregon. In 2025 he allowed zero sacks and posted an 86.7 PFF grade, 2nd among all guards in college football. He was selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars with the No. 88 overall pick in Round 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft.

Derrick Harmon (DL, No. 21 overall to Pittsburgh) and Josh Conerly Jr. (OT, No. 29 overall to Washington) were Oregon's two first-round picks in 2025. Oregon has produced a first-round pick in six consecutive drafts (2020-2025): Herbert, Sewell, Thibodeaux, Gonzalez, Nix, and Harmon + Conerly.

No. Dante Moore announced he is returning to Oregon for the 2026 season, turning down an estimated $50M in guaranteed money. He is expected to be a top pick in the 2027 draft.
The 2025 draft set a program record with 10 Oregon picks. The 2026 class could match or exceed that number and potentially produce 3 first-rounders, which would be unprecedented. Dan Lanning has produced first-round picks in every draft class since arriving at Oregon.
