# Brian Peacock: Peacock laid out their two-round 2026 mock draft (pick-by-pick through the top 11 plus the 49ers' selections) and then extrapolated it to seven rounds for San Francisco, including a projected Trent Williams trade to Houston and a series of Day 2/Day 3 49ers picks.

24 checkable claims — 21 mock draft picks, 2 depth chart calls and 1 trade and signing call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 35 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

18 of 24 have settled so far, averaging 76 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess at the same calls.

> I wouldn't be shocked at all if after the first round, the forty niners draft an offensive tackle, kinda kinda like the McGlinchey thing, and then all of a sudden it's like, oh, guess what? The Houston Texans have traded for Trent Williams.

## More mock draft picks

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

- Chris Simms on Malachi Corley: Simms named the Bears the NFL's best overall offense and best rushing offense, the Bengals the best passing offense, Seattle the best total defense, Minnesota the best pass defense and Tampa Bay the best run defense; they also called Tristan Wirfs the league's best offensive lineman, projected Miami's Malachi Toney as a top-15 pick, and predicted a 30-14 Jaguars win in Baltimore. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/c0fd4647-2de8-4a5f-bac2-950fed303ee9 (scored 11.46)
- Todd McShay on Keelon Russell: While breaking down LSU's offense, McShay called receiver Jackson Harris a top-50 NFL draft prospect, and later said LSU's Sam Levitt and Alabama's Keelan Russell are potential top-10 picks in a future draft. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/15d40546-2ab9-4ab8-b5bd-ed0ef7f26ae5 (scored 0)

- Blaine Grisak on Brian Thomas Jr.: Grisak argues the Rams should not trade a second-round pick for Jaguars receiver Brian Thomas Jr., calling it too great a risk and too high a cost.

- Walt on Garrett Nussmeier: In a running series of coach/GM hiring and firing grades, Walt projects Fernando Mendoza as the No. 1 overall pick of the Raiders in the 2026 draft and has LSU's Garrett Nussmeier going No. 2 overall in their 2026 mock draft. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/29bb2d31-fbe3-40db-b378-be5ba5d990b0 (scored 0)

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.
