The NFL Draft kicks off tonight through Saturday. Over 250 prospects will hear their names called and numerous will land as UDFA/PFA’s. The 2026 NFL Draft isn’t overly great at the top of the class, and there’s a little bit of concern with the overall depth down the class as well. In terms of the talent in rounds 2-4, the class is exceptionally deep and with Las Vegas holding a second, third, and three fourths they should be able to add more talent to a roster desperately needing talent. I was able to watch nearly 400 prospects for this years’ class, and through that I have put together my final big board:

1. ILB/EDGE Arvell Reese, Ohio State
2. EDGE Rueben Bain, Miami (FL)
3. RB Jeremiyah Love, Notre Dame
4. OG Ola Ioane, Penn State
5. SAF Caleb Downs, Ohio State
6. QB Fernando Mendoza, Indiana
7. EDGE David Bailey, Texas Tech
8. WR Carnell Tate, Ohio State
9. ILB Sonny Styles, Ohio State
10. OT Francis Mauigoa, Miami (FL)
11. CB Mansoor Delane, LSU
12. OT Monroe Freeling, Georgia
13. WR Omar Cooper Jr, Indiana
14. SAF Dillon Thieneman, Oregon
15. WR Jordyn Tyson, Arizona State
16. CB Chris Johnson, San Diego State
17. WR Makai Lemon, USC
18. DT Christen Miller, Georgia
19. OG Emmanuel Pregnon, Oregon
20. WR Chris Bell, Louisville
