Reader Consensus Mock - 2026 NFL Draft

There will not be another pick here; if by some miracle the Raiders pull off a stunning trade for Lamar Jackson or something like that, then the team trading into this spot would be picking Mendoza anyway. New coach Klint Kubiak walks into a situati ... read more...

Prospect Rank: 5th Position Rank: 2nd With the Jets in complete rebuild mode - once again - they shouldn’t force a reach on a quarterback here. Arvell Reese is amongst the most gifted players in this class irrespective of position. He has enormo ... read more...

The Jets are saved by Dante Moore foolishly deciding to return to school, because he would have been an incredible reach at #2 overall in this weak QB class. Instead, how about infusing some high-end talent back into the defense? (The offense is ac ... read more...

A bunch of chatter about Moore not declaring, with an opportunity to be the second QB off the board on an underrated Jets offence, it seems like a no brainer.

Here's another team that needs a long-term solution at QB, as Kyler Murray will not be back and as Jacoby Brissett (who has a year left on his contract) is just a possible bridge guy. But like the Jets, I can't see Arizona forcing a QB pick here. I ... read more...

If Arizona goes defense here, the same guys that I mentioned above for the Jets should be in play. Downs might be a sneaky call here, given that Arizona can move on from Budda Baker after '26 with a minimal dead cap hit, if they wanted to. Still, I ... read more...

This is where the unknown of the NFL Draft begins, the Cardinals may need a QB if they decide to move on from Kyler Murray, although is Ty Simpson worth a top 3 selection? With that being said, we'll role with a bit of a unicorn player to help this b ... read more...

Jeffery Simmons heads the Rueben Bain fan club. Sonny Styles and those Fred Warner comps could be catnip to Robert Saleh. But Love would instantly turbo-charge TEN's dull offense and make life easier for Cam Ward. There's talk that the Titans...well. ... read more...

A sneaky spot to see our first trade down here as the Titans could use some upgrades at multiple positions. What they do this offseason has a large effect on this pick. For the time being we'll boost a weak pass rush with David Bailey, a speedy edge ... read more...

The same defenders I've discussed in the Jets and Cardinals blurbs are in play here. The team could also look at the WR1 of the draft. Bain's decision not to work out at the Combine suggests to me that he thinks he's going to be picked very high. ... read more...

Do the Giants take Styles after signing Tremaine Edmunds in free agency? I suppose it does make it slightly less likely. The G-Men obviously didn't get Linderbaum, but they did re-sign Jermaine Eluemunor, their RT. In addition to what Schefter sai ... read more...

Picking a safety at 5 could be a hard sell for some Giants fans, but John Harbaugh had Kyle Hamilton in his last few years in Baltimore. And in terms of talent, one could very easily make a case for Downs being a top 5 player (or better) in this draf ... read more...

Prospect Rank: 12th Position Rank: 1st The Giants need offensive line and receiver support badly and is partly dependent on whether they re-sign Jermaine Eluemunor at right tackle (of note - the Ravens waived and then traded him away under Harba ... read more...
