ESPN NFL draft analyst Jordan Reid ranked the best quarterbacks in the 2026 draft class as things stand now, stacking up the signal callers who are draft eligible and could hear their names called in next year’s draft.
Clemson’s Cade Klubnik landed all the way down at No. 13 in Reid’s 2026 NFL draft QB rankings.
Back in the spring, Reid projected Klubnik to be the No. 1 overall pick. Fast forward to the present, and Reid currently sees the 6-foot-2, 210-pound senior as a mid-to-late Day 3 pick.
“With four starters returning along the Tigers’ offensive line and his top three wide receivers back for another season, I thought Klubnik had the best supporting cast in the country and a prime opportunity to build off a breakout 2024,” Reid wrote.
