Gregg Rosenthal#39 of 87 NFL pundits · Apr 22, 2026
Rosenthal delivered a solo first-round mock draft (a "will happen" mock, no trades), naming a specific player at each of the first 32 picks. They also predicted they'd hit more than 4.5 picks correctly, and suggested George Pickens could be traded by Dallas next year.

How each call scored
34 checkable claims — 31 mock draft picks, 2 position order calls and 1 trade and signing call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
It names 57 players and teams, each linked to their own record.
33 of 34 have settled so far, averaging 76.7 out of 100, against 48.4 for a naive guess at the same calls.
Each call is scored 0 to 100 against what happened, on its own, by the published methodology. The naive guess is what knowing nothing would have scored on the same calls; the gap, weighted by how hard the call was, is the skill.

Clark expects the Chiefs to bring back exclusive-rights receiver Nico (Remigio) and long snapper James Winchester, to re-sign JuJu Smith-Schuster as a cheap veteran fifth receiver, and not to bring back Hollywood Brown, Josh Dobbs-type depth, Gardner Minshew, Janarius Robinson or Mike Caliendo; they also say the Chiefs will not use a franchise tag and believes Bryan Cook won't return.Nate Gosney · Trade and Signing Calls · Daiyan Henley · Miss 0
