2026 NFL Draft

[Dale]

Nate Boerkircher as a Round 2 TE?????

He was projected Day 3. Such a deep TE class. What the helly

 

[NDPhilly]

Greenard traded to the eagles. Welcome aboard.

 

[Rocketman84]

Wow! Did the German TE Marlin Klein just get drafted??? In the 2nd Rd at that😳😳😳

 

[Me2SouthBend]

Is Shane Conlan hammered or does he have CTE? Or both? Stumbled through announcing Bills early R2 pick and said “in 2016 draft” then just came out again and looked very unsteady and sounded hammered.

That pick and the Max Klare pick were awful. Rams are having a terrible draft.

 

[Bane]

Both clearly have better upsides as passers than Ty Simpson (who has some pretty terrible advanced stats in some areas). Beck I wouldn't touch because of the decision making issues, but that's subjective.

I would bet dollars-to-donuts that one of Nussmeier, Green, Payton, or Klubnik has a better career than Simpson and you could've gotten three of those guys in the mid-to-late rounds.

If I were going to reach a bit on a QB of the future project, I would have gone Nuss over Simpson. Not Beck though, Beck is a headcase imo.

 

[GATTACA!]

Browns are killing this draft.

 

[Me2SouthBend]

Browns are killing this draft.

And yet somehow they won’t make the playoffs for the next 5 yrs.

 

[GoldenAura]

Carson Beck and Jeremiyah Love

lol didn’t see that coming

 

[Dale]

Beck is a fine 3rd round pick

Love should catch a lot of passes. Either Brissett or Beck are gonna target McBride and Love a ton. It makes sense.

 

[ACamp1900]

Love is doomed lol

 

[Dale]

Love is doomed lol

Is Dillon Gabriel available?

 

[arrowryan]

Another tight end? I’m confused. Smythe a cut candidate for Chicago?

 

[GoldenAura]

Fields to the Giants

 

[Bane]

Glad he got drafted to a pretty good situation all things considered.

 

[Dale]

Basically exactly what ND brought him in to be, a 2 - 4th round type pick

 

[slick7410]

Everyone sits in nickel all game with hybrid LBs and coverage safeties ; seems corrections coming with more tight ends + rb value

 

[Bane]

Allar to the Steelers.

 

[Dale]

 

[GoldenAura]

Stillers what are you doing bby

Yup. McVay/Shanahan popularized the 12 personnel. Seattle and McVay took it to the extreme and went 13 a bunch this year. Everyone taking their TE2s tonight

 

[T-Boone]

First ND WR picked in first 3 rounds since Claypool.

 

[Irishdawg]

First ND WR picked in first 3 rounds since Claypool.

That will be changing over the next few years!!

 

[arrowryan]

Drew Allar that’s MY QB

 

[Dale]

Drafting a Tennessee WR:

 

[GoldenAura]

Eli Raridon to the Patriots

 

[Bane]

Raridon to the Patriots.

 

[greyhammer90]

I don't know how to reconcile that scouting is a serious job in the NFL and someone drafted Allar

In the THIRD ROUND.

Considering Smythe signed with the Ravens, I don't think he needs to worry about being cut by the Bears.
