Round 1
1.Tennessee Titans-Cam Ward-QB, Miami
Even though Sanders is the perfect fit in Callahan's offense imo, it does appear that at least for now, the Titans love Ward and prefer him over Sanders.
Projected Trade:
Raiders get:
2nd Pick
Browns get:
6th Pick
68th Pick

2.Las Vegas Raiders(Via Cleveland Browns)-Sheduer Sanders-QB, Colorado
I do think that Deion is going to refuse Sheduer to play for the Browns. If that's the case, then the Browns could trade down and accrue capital for a team desperate to land Sheduer's services.
3.New York Giants-Jalen Milroe-QB, Alabama
Given the Giants' QB situation, and the standard needed for Daboll and Schoen to retain their jobs, it's hard for me to envision the Giants coming out of Round 1 without a QB, even if it's Milroe, who with a good combine, could vault right back into QB1 convos imo.
4.New England Patriots-Travis Hunter-CB/WR, Colorado
This pick is a no-brainer for the Patriots. It fills two needs: getting a shutdown corner opposite Christian Gonzalez as well as a WR1 for Drake Maye.
5.Jacksonville Jaguars-Will Johnson-CB, Michigan
T-Mac does have an argument here, but given BTJ's emergence and how horrible the Jaguars' secondary was last year, going with Johnson over T-Mac does make more sense for the Jaguars.
6.Cleveland Browns(Via Las Vegas Raiders)-Abdul Carter-EDGE, Penn State
If the Browns can't land Ward, then they should trade down and try to go with the best player avaliable that somewhat fits their needs. There is an argument for a lot, mainly T-Mac, Carter, and Graham, but given the uncertainty of Myles Garrett's future and the Za'Darius Smith trade, Carter makes the most sense.
7.New York Jets-Tetaroia McMillan-WR, Arizona
If the Jets go into a full rebuild, then it would be wise to go into this draft to try to tank for one of the top QBs in 2026 and try to fill as many holes as possible in this draft to help their QB of the future hit the ground running next year. If that's the case, then getting a WR1 in the midst of the uncertainty in that room would go a long way.
8.Carolina Panthers-James Pearce Jr-EDGE, Tennessee
There is an argument for Graham here, but assuming that Derrick Brown can return to form from injury, then going pass rusher makes more sense, and Pearce is the best one avaliable.
9.New Orleans Saints-Mykel Williams-EDGE, Georgia
The Saints do need youth in their pass rush, so going with the best one available at #9 makes the most sense.
10.Chicago Bears-Mason Graham-DT, Michigan
This might be a potential steal for Graham, but depending on how many teams are considered a fit earlier, it wouldn't be shocking to see him slide to the Bears, where he is a good fit for them.
11.San Francisco 49ers-Kelvin Banks Jr-OT, Texas
The Niners need an OT opposite Trent Williams and a potential heir for him too. Banks fits both of those bills.
12.Dallas Cowboys-Ashton Jeanty-RB, Boise State
This pick just screams Cowboys. Not only does Jeanty fill a need, but he's also the sexy pick that Jerry Jones likes.
Projected Trade:
Broncos get:
13th Pick
Dolphins get:
21st Pick

2026 DEN 1st
2026 DEN 4th
13.Denver Broncos(Via Miami Dolphins)-Luther Burden III-WR, Missouri
The Broncos need to upgrade Bo Nix's weapons, so leapfrogging Pittsburgh to get their guy makes sense, whether it be Burden or Egbuka.
14.Indianapolis Colts-Tyler Warren-TE, Penn State
Even though the secondary might be a bigger concern, TE is also a need, and Warren's just too good of a prospect too pass up.
15.Atlanta Falcons-Benjamin Morrison-CB, Notre Dame
While Revel might be the better prospect, Morrison is a better fit in the Falcons' system imo.
16.Arizona Cardinals-Deone Walker-DT, Kentucky
The Cardinals need an upgrade at DT, so getting whom they feel is the best one available should be their round 1 strategy.
17.Cincinnati Bengals-Shavon Revel-CB, East Carolina
The Bengals really need a CB opposite Cam Taylor-Britt, so going with the best one they can get their hands on makes sense.
18.Seattle Seahawks-Nic Scourton-EDGE, Texas A & M
The Seahawks need a pass rusher opposite Leonard Williams, so if they are able to land of the top guys, they should pull the trigger.
19.Houston Texans-Kenneth Grant-DT, Michigan
DT is the biggest need for the Texans at the moment, so taking the best one they can get their hands on should be the strategy in round 1.
20.Pittsburgh Steelers-Emeka Egbuka-WR, Ohio State
The Steelers need a difference maker in the slot, and Egbuka definitely fits that bill.
21.Miami Dolphins(Via Denver Broncos)-Malakai Starks-S, Georgia
Both Jevon Holland and Jordan Poyer are free agents, and both could be difficult to retain. As a result, upgrading the safety room via the draft makes sense for the Dolphins.
22.Los Angeles Rams-Will Campbell-OT, LSU
If Campbell slides this far, then the Rams should jump on him. He's a great fit in their system, and the Rams really need o-line help.
23.Green Bay Packers-Trey Amos-CB, Ole Miss
The Packers need a CB opposite Jaire Alexander, and Amos is the last of the first round CBs here.
24.Washington Commanders-Cameron Williams-OT, Texas
The Commanders would be wise to beef up Jayden Daniels's protection, so drafting the best OT they can get their hands on makes sense.
25.Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Jihaad Campbell-LB, Alabama
The Bucs need a long term replacement for LaVonte David as well as upgraded LB play. Campbell fits both of those bills.
26.Los Angeles Chargers-Colston Loveland-TE, Michigan
The Chargers could use better TE play, and Loveland was also coached by Jim Harbaugh, so this pick makes too much sense.
27.Baltimore Ravens-Tyler Booker-G, Alabama
The Ravens need to upgrade their OL, and could really use better guard play, so Booker makes sense here.
28.Minnesota Vikings-Tyliek Williams-DT, Ohio State
The Vikings need a difference maker on their d-line, so getting the best DT they can get their hands on should be the priority in Round 1.
29.Philadelphia Eagles-Jonah Savaiinea-OT, Arizona
Howie Roseman does like to prepare for the future in Round 1, so drafting Lane Johnson's heir might be a priority for the Eagles this draft. Savaiinea fits in the Eagles' system, so that makes too much sense.
30.Kansas City Chiefs-Nick Emmanwori-S, South Carolina
Justin Reid might get too pricey to retain for the Chiefs, so drafting his successor might be what they do.
31.Buffalo Bills-Shemar Stewart-EDGE, Texas A & M
The Bills could use a long-term partner with Greg Rousseau, so addressing this position makes sense.
32.Detroit Lions-Isaiah Bond-WR, Texas
Getting an upgrade at WR3 makes sense for the Lions.
