2026 NFL MOCK DRAFT -2/24/26

   The college football season is done now . Congratulations to The National Champion INDIANA HOOSIERS ! PLUS THE  SEAHAWKS ARE SUPERBOWL CHAMPS. Congratulations to the fans of both. The EAST-WEST SHRINE game and SENIOR BOWL just came and went as well , but both weeks did give us all more information about a lot of players. So far this draft looks subpar in blue chip players, and its been getting worse with so many draft eligible higher level prospects returning to school , Yet there could be a lot of depth , and a lot of starters at the Pro level.  Now It's Scouting Combine week. I still have a lot of studying , but at this point I doubt there will be 15 players with a 1rst round grade in this draft. On a personal note this has been a tough College season for me in real life. I have been moving , and the old house is still being fixed up for resale. So I am behind on my tape watching for this time of the year compared to previous seasons , but now things have slowed down , and I am mostly bedridden with a injury , which consequently gives me a lot of free time to grind film. Right now I have done one game one 182 players and 3 or more games on 114 guys, but I doubt I will have time to do a minimum of 3 games of even 400 players this year. Although I will get a lot more games done on the players I end up liking and with those who I am intrigued with enough to put in my final top 200 right before the draft.  The 2026 draft also 4 teams with an extra 1rst rounder this year , but unless I believed I was getting a franchise QB out of it I would be trading away any pick outside the top 15 for a 1rst rounder next year if I could get it , because that draft looks like it could be the best class of prospects since 2014. In fact the 2027 draft might be even better because the 2027 draft has the multiple potential ace QB's that 2014 lacked.  Yes , I have watched all of these players actually play a lot more  , but that is not the same as breaking down the film on them so I still have tons of work to do in this class. Throw in the guys who are draft eligible sophomores that I didn't expect to even contemplate going Pro so early, or that haven't played much yet so they aren't on my radar right now, and you get the picture . Then chime in with the fact we have only have a partial idea what teams will need at that time because of injuries, free agency, retirements , the cap, suspensions , and who knows what else could happen ? Not to mention all the STUPID HEAD COACH FIRINGS THIS OFF SEASON , and now all those new coaches are going to be trying to assess their current rosters and implement their schemes on their new teams.  Plus the transfer portal & NIL money has drastically changed the face of college football , but at least more guys are staying in school longer as the early entry draft list is relatively small this time around. That means that the guys who don't make it in the NFL are more likely to actually get a degree , and that the ones who do make the league should be more polished coming in.  However , year after year many guys disappoint, go back to school, get injuries, get in trouble , and others come out of the woodwork.  Also I have even more work to do on injuries and character concerns , but a lot of that stuff comes out during and after the combine. So you can see what a crapshoot it really is at this time. At least the draft order is set at this point. I expect Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza to go #1  , and I personally doubt the Raiders trade the pick.  Also a few trades will probably happen in the 2nd half of the 1rst round , but I only have one in this mock. This is NOT my top 32 , but instead what I believe teams will do in the first round , or with their first pick FOR THE 4 TEAMS who are lacking a a 1rst round pick this year. I don't remember having a guy in my top 10 that I didn't have a first round grade on before now , unless it was a QB , but I have The Bengals taking such a player this year at #10 . Like I said it's not that great at the top in this draft , and they are a team that drafts for need & tools, and they rarely trade unless its a one sided slam dunk in their favor. Without further ado here it is. Agreeing or disagreeing is welcome, but please do it intelligently & respectfully or I just won't post it. so here it is. Enjoy.

2025 NFL TEAM RECORD PREDICTIONS - 9/5/25

The off season that led us here wasn't as exciting as the break in 2024. This years draft had less Big names, especially at QB , but there also were a lot of draft picks holding out from the 2nd round as well. So on the whole I expect this years draft class to make less noise in the first half of the season , but that should pick up in the second half , when a lot of these young guys know their teams systems better. On the pro side big names holdouts like Terry Mclaurin , Trey Hendrickson, and Micah Parsons have caused uncertainty. While Mclaurin & Hendrickson eventually got paid they missed a lot of work on the field, and that usually ends up meaning injuries and/or poor performance , at least early in the season. I actually agree with Jerrah trading away Parsons because they need a new QB , and would have had an even more lopsided starts & scrubs type roster if they had paid him. Now they can hopefully use those 2 first rounders to get a QB who likes winning more than money. Maybe incoming NT Kenny Clark can even teach Mazi Smith how to play football ? Plus Green Bay overpaid Micah Parson anyway, but at least it's nice to see the Packers making ALL IN moves in the same year where they FINALLY drafted a WR in the first round again.  The off-season free agency was less busy too . The other biggest trades from the off-season were Laremy Tunsil to Washington , Joe Thuney to Chicago & maybe Geno Smith the Raiders. Although the Bears made some serious moves across the board to upgrade their O-Line , and I believe new head coach Ben Johnson will get them going I'm the right direction. In free agency other than Davante Adams going to the Rams , and The Superbowl champion Eagles having their roster raided by other teams looking to catch up to them,  free agent signings didn't get too crazy. Yet Philly GM Howie Roseman was ready , and already had some previously drafted guys in waiting ,  he drafted well again , and he also made some judicious moves in free agency. So I expect the Eagles won't fall off much , if at all.   Now that the preseason is about to come to an end it's time to pull out the crystal ball. Don't sweat it that all my win & loss totals won't match up , because it's really difficult to give even a team that I expect to be bad under 5 wins at a time when everyone's still healthy , especially when no teams players will be giving up early. This is my belief on how teams stack up on paper before the season begins, Obviously it's hard to predict the records this early, especially in football where major injuries are more prevalent than in any other sport , and one key injury can derail a entire teams season. However,  I am game. Agreeing is disagreeing in the comments is welcome, but please keep it respectful or I won't post it.

2026 NFL MOCK DRAFT - 8/29/25

 Still grinding tape , and I am ahead on these guys compared to last year.  Although I still have tons of work to do on this class. With the exception of a few players who I jumped the gun on because I expected them to enter the 2025 draft, but who instead opted to stay in school , I have only broken down the film of one game on the overwhelming majority of these guys. So while I have watched all of these players actually play more than once  , that is not the same as breaking down the film on them, and I have only currently broken down the film on one game for 172 players.  There are also 65 more players that I have done 3 games games on , and another 34 guys that I have now broken down 7 games. Throw in the guys who are draft eligible sophomores that I don't expect to even contemplate going Pro so early, or that haven't played much yet so they aren't on my radar right now, and you get the picture. Then chime in with the fact we have little idea what teams will need at that time because of injuries, free agency, retirements , the cap, suspensions , and who knows what else could happen ? Plus the transfer portal & NIL money has drastically changed the face of college football. Every year when I post this I look back at last years early mock, and you can see how little we know this far out, because it's a near miracle if someone even gets half of the 1rst rounders right. So many guys disappoint, go back to school, get injuries, get in trouble , and others come out of the woodwork.  So you can see what a crapshoot it really is at this time. I am making a even harder prediction to guess the draft order. Don't lose your minds if your team is picking high , because it's a long time away , and this is even bigger guess than the actual players. The picks are all mine, and so is the order if you want to be mad at someone. I expect a QB to go #1  , and I expect the Saints to have the first pick.  I put Arch Manning in here at #1 because I believe that's where he will go if he enters the draft , but I think there is only about a 30% chance that he enters the 2026 draft. The reason is that his uncles Peyton & Eli were 4 year starters in college , and Arch will only be a one year starter after the 2025 season ends. Also a lot of trades will probably happen , but I don't put trades in mocks until it's draft season again. Without further ado here it is. Agreeing or disagreeing is welcome, but please do it intelligently & respectfully or I just won't post it. so here it is. Enjoy.

2026 NFL MOCK DRAFT - 6/4/25

 I'm sure many of you , especially the ones who didn't like their teams draft this year, or who think that their team is likely to be picking high in 2025 are curious about next year. Things have slowed down a bit now so I decided to watch tape for the last 2 weeks, but I am taking a full 2 week long break after I finish this. I have done much more work on these guys compared to last year where I rushed it , and the results took a downturn. So while I watched tape during day 3 of the draft as usual , and then waited to watch more during this week before putting this out. Although I still have tons of work to do on this class. With the exception of a few players who I jumped the gun on because I expected them to enter the 2025 draft, but who instead opted to stay in school , I have only broken down the film of one game on the overwhelming majority of these guys. So while I have watched all of these players actually play more than once  , that is not the same as breaking down the film on them, and I have only currently broken down the film on one game for 162 players.  There are also 12 more players that went back to school I have done 3 games games on.

2026 Waaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy Too Early Mock draft - 5/2/25

 After the 2025 draft was finally over, and teams were scrambling for undrafted free agents as I was typing this ,  I decided to put this off until my real life cleared up some.  To me this is one of the more bittersweet weeks of the year. I am always both relieved & saddened when day 3 ends.  Relieved because I feel like I can take a deep breath & relax for a week , especially this year with so much going on in the real world. Saddened about some of the picks both made and unmade. Answering excited and/or nervous calls & texts from friends & my little brother about how I feel their team drafted this year. Apprehensive about putting out this early mock when I have only a vague idea about who the players are yet. I'm sure many of you , especially the ones who didn't like their teams draft this year, or who think that their team is likely to be picking high in 2025 are curious about next year. Things have slowed down a bit now so I decided to watch tape yesterday & today, but I am taking a full 2 week long break after I finish this. I have done much more work on these guys compared to last year where I rushed it , and the results took a downturn. So while I watched tape during day 3 of the draft as usual , and then waited to watch more during this week before putting this out. Although I still have tons of work to do on this class. With the exception of a few players who I jumped the gun on because I expected them to enter the 2025 draft, but who instead opted to stay in school , I have only broken down the film of one game on the overwhelming majority of these guys. So while I have watched all of these players actually play more than once  , that is not the same as breaking down the film on them, and I have only currently broken down the film on one game for 122 players.  There are also 12 more players that went back to school I have done 3 games games on. Throw in the guys who are draft eligible sophomores that I don't expect to even contemplate going Pro so early, or that haven't played much yet so they aren't on my radar right now, and you get the picture. Then chime in with the fact we have little idea what teams will need at that time because of injuries, free agency, retirements , the cap, suspensions , and who knows what else could happen ? Plus the transfer portal & NIL money has drastically changed the face of college football. Every year when I post this I look back at last years early mock, and you can see how little we know this far out, because it's a near miracle if someone even gets half of the 1rst rounders right. So many guys disappoint, go back to school, get injuries, get in trouble , and others come out of the woodwork.  Last years way too early mock was even less accurate because I rushed it. ( 2025 Way Tooo Early Mock Draft ). The complete totals of the 32 guys I projected to go in the first round in 2025 right after last years draft ended were : First - 10 , Second - 5, Third- 2 , Fourth - 2 , Fifth- 3 , Sixth- 2 , Seventh - 1 . Plus a record for me 5 who went back to school. Plus one more who went undrafted , and sadly one even tragically committed suicide. So you can see what a crapshoot it really is at this time. I am making a even harder prediction to guess the draft order. Don't lose your minds if your team is picking high , because it's a long time away , and this is even bigger guess than the actual players. The picks are all mine, and so is the order of you want to be mad at someone. They are mostly players I couldn't help noticing while watching last years tape, or guys I expected to enter last years draft that stayed in school. I expect a QB to go #1  , and I expect the Saints to have the first pick.  I put Arch Manning in here at #1 because I believe that's where he will go if he enters the draft , but I think there is only about a 30% chance that he enters the 2026 draft. The reason is that his uncles Peyton & Eli were 4 year starters in college , and Arch will only be a one year starter after the 2025 season ends. Also a lot of trades will probably happen , but I don't put trades in mocks until it's draft season again. Without further ado here it is. Agreeing or disagreeing is welcome, but please do it intelligently & respectfully or I just won't post it. so here it is. Enjoy.
