2026 Watch List

As far as I can tell, current Pats WRs and Tennessee WRs are the only one PF2 doesn't like.
Click to expand...

To be fair, according to Scout Google, the last Tennessee Vol WR to have any sort of success in the NFL was Robert Meachem.. From 2007-2014.

Tennessee Vols WRs drafted since then:
Denarious Moore - 2011 - 5th Round - Raiders
Corderlle Patterson - 2013 - 1st Round - Vikings (made his bones on Special teams and had more success as a RB than a WR)
Justin Hunter - 2013 - 2nd Round - Titans
Josh Malone - 2017 - 4th round - Bengals
Jauan Jennings- 2020 - 7th Round - 49ers. (could be considering to be having a successful career)
Josh Palmer - 2021 - 3rd Round - Chargers
Velus Jones - 2022 - 3rd round - Bears

I stopped at 2022 because I don't feel that any player with 3yrs or less has had enough time to have a Football career..

Rob Rang big board:

I really liked when Rang and Brugler were a part of NFLDraftScout. SportsExchange ruined that site and busted it. Now you have Draftscout.com and HallofFootball.com as remanants of NFLDraftscout.com. They just aren't as good..
 
I love Bucky Brooks' positional rankings:

One BIG difference currently. Pass rush.
 
Interesting thought. Maybe something worthy of discussion.

I could not finish the Barth/Lazar "my guys" podcast. Those guys should stay out of the draft.

Lazar's favorite prospect in the draft, bar nome, is Chris Brazzell.

Lazar is very passing game focused. His point with Brazzell is his speed and crazy catch radius would be a dream pairing for Maye and the long passing game.

I kind of get his point, but might be to steep a bet for that possible upside.
 
Wouldn't it be something if I'm the one screaming for an EDGE in 2027 (Yhonzae Pierre, please) while you are pounding the table for OL.

Unless we double dip successfully this year, I've already planned on making EDGE my first watch position for next. I'm with you on Pierre, my EDGE 3 for next year currently.
 
My binkies for next year will depend on how next week goes, but Pierre, Jelani McDonald and Ben Roberts are my early defensive guys.

Though I wouldn't say no to Colin Simmons at 32.

Nor would I.

By the by, it's Roberts, not Edwards and I whole heartedly agree with those binkies.

It's a shame about the AJ Brown thing because it's such a great class all round. I wouldn't rule out finding a Rhamondre replacement too. A potentially outstanding RB class.
 
I was listing defense only.

Jamari Johnson, Charlie Becker definitely offensive skill binkies. deep RB group.

OL will depend on what happens next week. Would love to double up on Iheanachor and Rutledge and ignore it next year, but very unlikely. also many good OLs next year.

Just think about OG alone: Austin Siereveld, Carter Smith, Cayden Green. That's three quality ones without even trying.
 
10 Louis Riddick favorites including 5 "sleepers":

2026 NFL draft: Louis Riddick's favorite prospects, sleepers

Louis Riddick picks his guys in the 2026 class, including some offensive playmakers and ball-hawking defensive backs. See who's on his 10-player list.
www.espn.com

His "sleepers" are Keylan Rutledge, Kyle Louis, Treydan Stukes, Keionte Scott and Bud Clark.

Very deep dive.
