# Mike Renner: An unsigned CBS Sports big board ranks the top 100 prospects for the 2027 NFL Draft, with Arch Manning first overall, and attaches specific draft-range projections to several prospects (Leonard Moore top five, Trevor Goosby top 10, first-round calls on Cam Coleman, Greg Johnson, Trevor Lauck and Brauntae Johnson).

**Claimed:** Aug 26, 2026
**Pundit:** Mike Renner — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/mike-renner
**Outlet:** CBS Sports — https://missedtakes.co/outlets/cbs-sports
**How it reached us:** published in writing
**Original:** https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2027-nfl-draft-preseason-big-board-top-100-prospects/

8 checkable claims — 7 mock draft picks and 1 top player list — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 8 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.

Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room.

> While there's no shortage of holes to poke in Arch Manning's 2025 tape, he ends up at No. 1 overall for two big reasons

Accuracy is 0-100 against what actually happened. The naive guess is what a strategy requiring no knowledge would have scored on the same call — the difference is the skill, and it is what the MissedTakes Score averages.
