MOCK DRAFT: New Orleans Saints Should Select Arvell Reese In 2026 NFL Draft If Tyler Shough Pans Out

Arvell Reese out of Ohio State is the game-changer the New Orleans Saints desperately need in the 2026 NFL Draft. With his elite versatility—boasting run defense, pass rush, and coverage skills—he is the perfect fit for Brandon Staley’s defense.

Standout prospects like Indiana’s Elijah Surratt and Baylor’s Michael Trigg could fuel the offense in thus comprehensive seven-round mock, with attention also paid to depth-building in the trenches and on special teams.
