# Mike Renner: Renner ranks the top 10 tight end prospects in the upcoming class, led by Oregon's Jamari Johnson, and attaches an early draft grade to each — Johnson early Day 2, Reynolds/Carter/Green Day 2, Rodriguez late Day 2, and Hasley, Odom, Luckie, Ohrstrom and Vonnahme early Day 3. He also predicts Johnson will be the draft's TE1 and that Trey'Dez Green will record the longest wingspan ever measured at the NFL Scouting Combine. **Claimed:** Aug 11, 2026 **Pundit:** Mike Renner — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/mike-renner **Outlet:** CBS Sports — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/cbs-sports **How it reached us:** published in writing **Original:** https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/renner-2027-nfl-draft-tight-end-rankings/ 13 checkable claims — 10 mock draft picks, 1 combine superlative, 1 position order call and 1 top player list — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 10 players and teams, each linked to their own record. None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in. > There's a very good chance Oregon claims the draft's TE1 in back-to-back years. *(their words, quoted for attribution)* ## The claims - **Jamari Johnson to be 1st tight end off the board** - Kind: Position Order Calls · About: Jamari Johnson - Verdict: not settled yet - **Trey'Dez Green to be picked “Day 2” (picks 33–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Trey'Dez Green - Verdict: not settled yet - **Theo Melin Ohrstrom to be picked “Early Day 3” (picks 101–179)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Theo Melin Ohrstrom - Verdict: not settled yet - **Luke Reynolds to be picked “Day 2” (picks 33–100)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Luke Reynolds - Verdict: not settled yet - **Trey'Dez Green to lead his drill at the combine** - Kind: Combine Superlatives · About: Trey'Dez Green - Verdict: not settled yet - **Jamari Johnson to be picked “Early Day 2” (picks 33–67)** - Kind: Mock Draft Picks · About: Jamari Johnson - Verdict: not settled yet - **Positional rankings ...
