# Shaun Calderon: Calderon framed the Jaguars as a legitimate Super Bowl contender while casting the Titans as a team already focused on the draft, and named Ohio State's Jeremiah Smith as the best prospect in the coming draft class.

**Claimed:** Nov 13, 2026
**Pundit:** Shaun Calderon — https://missedtakes.co/pundits/shaun-calderon

2 checkable claims — 1 position order call and 1 super bowl pick — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 2 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.

> The Jaguars are a bonafide Super Bowl contender, while the Titans already have one eye towards a very important offseason.

## More position order calls

The same kind of call, about other players and teams.

- Joe Marino on Arvell Reese: Marino stacks 14 inside linebackers in the 2026 NFL draft class and assigns each a round-value grade, with Sonny Styles first (top-10 grade) and Anthony Hill third; they say Hill would be their preferred pick if Buffalo takes a linebacker at No. 26. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/fa349c5e-12c5-4b82-84ad-aff5d3bba78b (scored 100)
