The College Football regular season is nearing its end. For us, that means that mock draft season is heating up. This particular 2026 NFL Mock Draft features 2 rounds, but no trades. I also used NFL Mock Draft Database for this mock draft, which I highlighted in this particular article as my favorite draft simulator. Without further ado, let’s get to mocking. The Titans have their work cut out for them if they want to improve this offseason.

They should have about $19.5 million in cap space, but lack significant draft capital. Rueben Bain or Arvell Reese would be good options for Tennessee on the defensive front seven. Demario Davis and Cameron Jordan are both set to hit free agency this offseason. The Saints have young pieces across their depth chart, except for their defensive front seven. They found their quarterback in Tyler Shough last season, so let’s have them find their franchise piece on defense in round one. There will be a new head coach in New York, but the task remains the same – build around QB Jaxson Dart.

The Giants have one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL. Andrew Thomas has proven his worth at left tackle. If they choose, Fano would be a suitable replacement for Jermaine Eluemunor at right tackle. While the 2026 NFL draft is over seven months away, it’s never too early to look at what it may look like — especially after Week 1 of the college football season, which provided... There are still 11 more regular-season games to be played and an entire postseason, which heavily impacted the draft stock of several players last season. This means there will be a lot of moving pieces in the coming weeks and months.

Players will move up and down, including some who will decide to come back for another year and presumably enter the 2027 draft. It’s also worth noting that this combines future projections with the scenario of the draft happening today. Without further ado, let’s reveal our latest 2026 NFL Mock Draft, complete with full analysis for every selection in the first three rounds. LaNorris Sellers may not be the most polished passer in this quarterback group, but he’s undoubtedly the player with the highest ceiling. He displayed a peak of his top-tier talent against the Virginia Tech Hokies in Week 1, as he escaped the pocket and skirted up the sidelines, either juking out or barreling through defenders for... LANORRIS.

That means, with the NFL trade deadline on Tuesday (November 4), we’re fully entering 2026 NFL Draft season. Even though we here at NFL Spin Zone have been in 2026 NFL Draft mode since the Spring, but that’s neither here nor there. Now, we have actual on-field results to react to, and needs are becoming clearer every single week for even some of the best teams in the league. In this 2026 NFL Mock Draft, we’re going to take a look at not only the first round but the first two rounds of the draft and project where some of the top prospects... This 2026 NFL mock draft features a bunch of quarterbacks going within the top 20 picks, and a surprise player jumping all the way into the top two overall. We’ve got a lot to unpack, so let’s get right to it.

There is no question that the New Orleans Saints are on the cusp of anointing a new franchise quarterback. We’ve already seen them bench Spencer Rattler in favor of second-round rookie Tyler Shough, and obviously, that’s the first step toward potentially using next year’s top pick at the position. We’ll see what Shough can do for the rest of this season, but barring something miraculous, the top pick should be a new QB. And Fernando Mendoza has been exactly as advertised this season. One of the hottest risers in the 2026 NFL Draft process right now is Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson, who went from being an intriguing potential Day 2 selection to the betting favorite as the... There’s obviously plenty of competition for the QB1 distinction at this point in the process, but Simpson has done his part to make a case this season, and the Jets need a fresh start...

The Justin Fields investment did not work out. NFL Week 10 action featured plenty of surprising results that shook up the projected order of the 2026 NFL Draft. The New Orleans Saints entered the weekend in place for the No. 1 pick but thoroughly beat NFC South foe Carolina to drop from the top spot. The New York Jets got win No. 2 of the Aaron Glenn era over the Cleveland Browns, dropping down the order as well.

Their neighbors, the New York Giants, squandered a lead and lost to the Chicago Bears to overtake them in the top three of the draft order. The Giants fired Brian Daboll following the loss - making it more likely they'll stay near the top of the draft order. Those results leave Tennessee at the No. 1 pick after 10 weeks of NFL games. Tennessee already has a quarterback of the future and could be the first team to draft No. 1 overall in consecutive years since fellow AFC South franchise Jacksonville did so in 2021 and 2022.

They'll likely take their top non-quarterback prospect in the class. Who that player is is up for debate but most likely a defensive player. For the football obsessed, the expression "It’s the most wonderful time of the year," is not so much a reflection about the holidays as it is about mock drafts. They're like Thanksgiving meals — we seemingly can’t get enough of them. So, shortly after releasing a traditional first-round mock draft, we thought it would be worthwhile to identify each team's most glaring holes as well as strong prospect fits to fill them. With two clubs emerging as legitimate contenders for the No.

1 pick, the AFC East felt like the perfect starting point to kick off the series. Here are early projections for the entire division's selections on Days 1 and 2 of the 2026 NFL Draft. First round, No. 3 overall pick: Fernando Mendoza, QB, Indiana The Jets’ decision to trade cornerback Sauce Gardner and Quinnen Williams to load up on draft picks suggests that the club is willing to undergo a complete roster rebuild. Perhaps that will allow New York to package picks to trade for a veteran quarterback, with intriguing candidates such as Kyler Murray and divisional rival Tua Tagovailoa thought to be potentially available this offseason.

Should Jets general manager Darren Mougey take the more conventional approach, Mendoza’s inspirational play at Indiana could make him the first quarterback off the board this year. His dual-threat ability would make him an intriguing fit in the offense that head coach Aaron Glenn and offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand have used with incumbent starter Justin Fields this season.
