Mike Renner· Feb 3, 2026

Brenner made several draft-stock calls after the Senior Bowl: Pitt linebacker Kyle Lewis inside the top 100, Garrett Nussmeier as the third quarterback drafted, Malachi Fields as a top-50 pick, Caleb Proctor as a Day 3 pass rusher, Sonny Styles as a top-10 pick, and Jermod McCoy running in the low 4.4s or high 4.3s.

“I would bet that he comes off the board at quarterback three after that performance.”

  • Malachi Fields to be picked “top 50 pin” (picks 1–50)

    “So those two things, that ability to accelerate, the ability to attack the football, I would bet after this, he's a top 50 pin.”

  • Kaleb Proctor to be picked “day three”

    “Probably not gonna get into the top 100 because he's only two seventy five, but a nice intriguing day three pass rusher.”

    Not settled yet. This is graded once the result is in.

    Think this is wrong?

  • Jermod McCoy to post low four fours low or high four threes at the combine

    “But if he comes and works out, and I think he's gonna run-in a low four fours low or high four threes”

    Not settled yet. This is graded once the result is in.
