Draft Scouting Report

Summary
Concepcion combines downfield route-running chops with the ability to make defenders miss after the catch on underneath routes. He’s been producing since his true freshman season, when he hauled in 72 passes for 845 yards and 10 scores at NC State. His production never quite grew in the following years, unfortunately, and he developed a sizable issue with drops. If you can promise those drops get cleaned up, Concepcion has high-end starter potential.

Browns' KC Concepcion: Selected by Browns
The Browns selected Concepcion in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 24th overall.
Concepcion began his career at North Carolina State, where he posted one of the most productive true freshman seasons of all time (71 receptions for 839 yards and 10 touchdowns on 106 targets, 41 carries for 320 yards), putting himself on the national map as a big-play open-field menace. His sophomore season was less successful, but Concepcion bounced back as a junior after transferring to Texas A&M in 2025. At 6-feet, 196 pounds Concepcion is just big enough to project for two-wide sets and thus avoid the dreaded 'Slot Specialist' label, but his game will still probably center mostly on the underneath and intermediate portion of the field due to questions with his hands and downfield route-running ability. Concepcion's ability to stop, start and change direction is memorable and should make him a dangerous YAC threat if nothing else. A March knee scope is believed to be a non-issue in the long term, with the wideout indicating that he should be a go for the Browns' rookie minicamp May 8-10, Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
