Nice writeup from the Athletic on the top 3 draft prospects by position thusfar for the 2026 draft. This is going to be a deep draft along the offensive line. Obviously secondary is a need for us. Running back, if the right one is there. Interesting neither Penn State kids made his top 3. Not a very happy year in Happy Valley thusfar. A kid that's really caught my attention is the TE from Oregon, Sadiq. Never too early to start looking towards the draft...

I watched some of the '26 backs a few months ago. In about 10 minutes of watching, I thought Nick Singleton had the most impressive pro running style. Sounds like he's not making much of an impression this year though. Coleman's a bowling ball. Be happy with either of them or Love. But this is not the RB windfall that the '25 draft has turned out to be. Five rookie backs are already RB1s on their team

I think this year it's looking like offensive line is the stacked group where you could have seven to eight guys go in the 1st round

Aller out for the year...ouch. Hearing some in the draft community calling him "undraftable" due to his inability to hit open targets. Depending on how JJ finishes out the year, I wouldn't mind the Vikings using a draft pick at some point and rolling the dice. He is the typical "all the physocal tools in the world" but hasn't been able to put things together for whatever reason

Also read he might try for a medical hardship and sneak in another year in college if he can. He's only 21 years old. I definitely see someone taking a shot by drafting him midrange to late in the Draft and hope they strike gold.

It would be great for him if he could swing that. He's needed a "prove it" year and the scouts have been waiting on one..
