Blake Krass breaks down the betting odds surrounding where former Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq will be taken in the 2026 NFL Draft.
The 2026 NFL Draft begins tonight! This is a look at where former Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq is most likely to get drafted. You can bet on the NFL Draft on DraftKings Sportsbook.
Kenyon Sadiq was a superstar tight end for the Oregon Ducks. Sadiq showed signs of great potential as a sophomore, but he was the backup to the Los Angeles Rams’ Terrance Ferguson. In his junior season, he was given the reins as the starting tight end and showed what he is capable of. Sadiq is a modern tight end who is a big physical receiving threat. He is more in the mold of Travis Kelce, an athletic, big-bodied player with strong hands. Sadiq is going to be 21 years old for the duration of his rookie season and is still growing physically and mentally. A good coaching staff should add some more bulk to Sadiq’s frame and continue to improve his football IQ.
Kenyon Sadiq is almost certainly going to be a first-round pick. He isn’t quite a top-10 talent, but he is clearly a first-round talent. He is projected to go somewhere in the middle of the first round. Anywhere from the Rams with the 13th pick to the Panthers with the 19th pick is the most likely range for Sadiq. However, the Rams at 13, Ravens at 14 and Buccaneers at 15 are all very realistic landing spots for Sadiq. That is why he is -150 to be drafted in the top 15.
The Buccaneers are the betting favorite to draft Kenyon Sadiq with the 15th pick. However, my best bet is on the Ravens to select Sadiq. Longtime Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely signed with the Giants during the offseason. Likely and Mark Andrews have been operating as a duo over the last few seasons. Andrews has been the veteran who plays like an old-school, physical, blocking tight end. Meanwhile, Likely was the long, athletic pass-catching tight end. Sadiq could immediately step in and fill the hole Likely left.
Mark Andrews is now on the wrong side of 30 and only has one year left on his contract. Andrews is a great veteran who could take Kenyon Sadiq under his wing and help him develop a lot over his rookie season. Then, it could be Sadiq’s turn to be the TE1 in Baltimore for the foreseeable future. He would be a great weapon for Lamar Jackson, who is in need of more weapons if the Ravens want to capitalize on this window they have.
