The obvious name everybody is going wild over is Ohio State WR Jeremiah Smith. He’s clearly best prospect in the draft at a position of need.
- PendingDaire CarragherPosition Order Calls2026 season
Charlie Becker to be 2nd wide receiver off the board
A lot can change between now and draft day, but he has a really strong chance to be WR2 off the board in April.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Nov 12, 2026 Xavier Williams to be 1st DT off the board
I was torn between Gilliam and Ole Miss's Will Echoles for this spot, but it's time for a new DT1 in this draft class.
Charlie Becker to be 2nd wide receiver off the board
He's the clear No. 2 wide receiver in this class as the total package with size (6'4", 209 pounds), athleticism and reliable hands.
C.J. Carr to be 2nd quarterback off the board
But Carr got the nod as the new QB2 because he's more willing to let it rip downfield.
Drew Mestemaker to be 1st quarterback off the board
Mestemaker ... has become the clear No. 1 quarterback prospect thanks to his upside as a passer and enticing mobility.
Drew Mestemaker to be 1st quarterback off the board
I think Drew Mestemacher is going to be QB one this year.
Darian Mensah to be 1st quarterback off the board
Fast-forward to present day, and Mensah is my QB1, Oklahoma State's Drew Mestemaker is QB1a, and Carr is QB3.
C.J. Carr to be 3rd quarterback off the board
Fast-forward to present day, and Mensah is my QB1, Oklahoma State's Drew Mestemaker is QB1a, and Carr is QB3.

KJ Bolden to be one of the first safeties selected safety off the board

L.J. Martin to be 3rd running back off the board
And I think if he's at his best, he's gonna remind people why he could be the number three running back in this class.
Waiting on the season to settle this.said Nov 5, 2026 Drew Mestemaker to be 1st quarterback off the board
Mestemaker is going to be the top quarterback taken in the 2027 draft. That seems to be a foregone conclusion.
C.J. Carr to be 2nd quarterback off the board
I expect him to be the second quarterback taken off the board
Darian Mensah to be 1st quarterback off the board
Darian Mensah is my QB1, and while the competition Miami has faced leaves some (possibly many) questions unanswered, he's been consistently outstanding.
C.J. Carr to be 2nd quarterback off the board
Notre Dame's CJ Carr is currently QB2 in this class.
Drew Mestemaker to be 1st quarterback off the board
The rebuilding Miami Dolphins aren't picking in the top spot, but they still land QB1.

Drew Mestemaker to be 1st quarterback off the board

Waiting on the season to settle this.said Oct 30, 2026 C.J. Carr to be one of the top two quarterbacks in the class quarterback off the board
the top two quarterbacks in the class. would be Notre Dame's CJ Carr and Oklahoma State's true mess to maker.
Dante Moore to be 3rd quarterback off the board
I think those two guys in the eyes of the NFL people will be the top two quarterbacks in the class. I think Moore is right underneath that.
Jeremiah Smith to be 1st wide receiver off the board
this draft class has several top wide receiver prospects who could help immediately but Smith stands alone at the top of the class.
