2026 NFL Combine

Golday can be deployed on more ways.

My comp for Rodriguez is Lavonte David, who I called the best defensive player in the 2012 NFL draft, and who has had a HOF career. Rodriguez is perhaps the most instinctive LB I have seen since David. He has Jedi skills.

In this draft I think CJ Allen, Josiah Trotter and Rodriguez are all guys to captain your defense and make the entire defense better.

If I were Tampa Bay's GM I would take Mesidor at 15 and Rodriguez at 47, and dominate the weak NFC South for the next decade.

Really deep, versatile, athletic, and talented group.

Someone at NFL.COM needs to have their arse reamed.

When you go to a prospect page and click on "View All Prospects" it takes you to the 2025 draftees and the pull-down doesn't list 2026 as an option.

Not to mention that their whole set-up is garbage for player pages. They are so keen to push their scoring of prospects yet they aren't honest in how that scoring changed based on pre-post combine.

It is a garbage site, if for no other reason that they don't order their prospects by number. However, just click back from a prospects page and then click "all" at the top. That works fine. Also Lance Zierlein is a bit of a scouting report guru so his reports are always useful.
