2nd round - Alex Carringon/Lammar Houston - this is actually my hardest pick to make. I don't really know who to pick here. I would almost rather trade down and get a punch of value in the late 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. With JR tightening his belt it'd still be crazy but more likely than previous years.

3rd round - Taylor Price WR - Don't know why he's ranked so low. This may become an unrealistic place to draft him as his stock rises. Doesn't have any return experience whatsoever which is odd considering his attributes.

4th round - Rennie Curran OLB - Seems like a great LB for the Cover 2. Undersized but hasn't affected play in college. Great in coverage but not at forcing turnovers. Maybe be an akward fit at SLB, but we need more speed among the back-ups.

6th round - Trindon Holiday - KR/PR - I think his stock will rise a good bit. Either keep him as a 4th RB or 5th WR. Best return specialist in the draft. Try him on in certain packages on offense.

7th round - Will Barker OT - We're on fire with our late round O-lineman, let the good times roll.

I'll update later with more, I'm in my music appriciation class I'm going home now.

I agree that 2nd round pick is tough. There looks to be some good value guys late 2nd-mid 3rd. Where we pick it seems to be somewhat of a reach to take them, but at the same time we'll probably miss out on the 1st round grade players that drop into the early 2nd. I'm hoping either Cody or Tate drops to us there, but who knows.

I really don't feel good about Cody, remember when Duke Robinson got carted off the field in training camp? I think the same thing will happen with Cody, too much non functional bulk. Hopefully he can slim down and get in shape for the NFL. He'll be disaster if he can't do it.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.

      Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
