Pundit mock drafts 2026 [maybe with FAILs]

I think this one is well thought-out:

2026 NFL mock draft: Surprises in top 10 of latest first-round projection

The 2026 NFL Draft is just a month away, and our latest mock draft features a few surprises materializing in the top 10 picks.
www.usatoday.com

I would go with a different direction at 31 (or with a different player at the same direction), but it is certainly plausible.
 
Prisco still thinks the NFL works like it did 20 years ago. And all he’s got is bluster.

Question:

Given your BPA argument, and the fact Byard is only signed for one year . . . how would you feel if the Pats took Thienemann at 31?

Coincidentally, I just posted this in the safety thread:

My dilemma with Dillon Thieneman:

1. I definitely think he's a 1st round prospects. Game changing range and ball skills. Top 20 value.

2. I like Treydan Stukes more.

So to answer your question:

1. I would be thrilled with Thieneman at 31.
2. I would rather trade back and take Stukes.

I heard a mock today where Thienenmann goes to the Vikings. Vikings don't have much talent at safety, Harrison is either done or close to it.

Sounded reasonable.

Fair. But in the mock here he went 32.
 
I'd go Iheanachor and Ted Hurst in that scenario, then try to trade up for Derrick Moore.

Yates is very high on Keylan Rutledge.

Alex Barth's latest mock.

Four picks the same as in my latest mock so obviously I approve. And, if you can get Blake Miller and Gabe Jacas in the same draft, that's a win-win-win.
