Kent Swanson· Mar 26, 2026
Ken says all six known Chiefs top-30 visitors will be drafted inside the top 100 picks, projects Dani Dennis-Sutton to go between picks 40 and 74 (closer to 40), and sees Davison Igbinosun as more of a pick-74 player than a pick-40 player.
“But there's six out there that we know, and all of these guys are going to be taken within the top 100 picks, I think.”

- Jeff KerrRoster Spot Calls · Makai LemonHit · 100Kerr judges Eagles camp overreactions: he doubts Jalen Hurts reaches 30 touchdown passes, thinks only one of Darius Cooper or Johnny Wilson makes the 53 (with Cooper leading the WR5 race), and expects Dallas Goedert to post double-digit receiving touchdowns again.
- Jeff KerrRoster Spot Calls · Makai LemonMiss · 0Kerr ranks the Eagles' 2025 draft picks by cut risk, predicting seventh-rounders Keyshawn James-Newby and Cole Wisniewski land on the practice squad, while Cole Payton, Uar Bernard, Makai Lemon, Eli Stowers and Markel Bell make the 53.

The same kind of call, about other players and teams.
- Ryan WilsonMock Draft Picks · J.J. McCarthyMiss · 37Recalling his pre-draft evaluation, Wilson notes he had ranked J.J. McCarthy as the fifth quarterback in the 2024 class and given him a second-round grade rather than a first-round one, citing the gap between Michigan's system and NFL demands.
- Lance ZierleinMock Draft Picks · Jeremiyah LoveHit · 100Zierlein laid out his final mock draft: Jeremiah Love at No. 3 to Arizona, Sonny Styles at No. 4 to Robert Saleh's team, and Caleb Downs to the Giants at No. 5.
