We've entered the home stretch. Welcome to the week of the 2026 NFL Draft! After watching the film, I put together a list of 110 players and ranked them from best to worst. Here's my official Big Board for the #NFLDraft:

NC State and Virginia announced that their Week 0 game will no longer be played in Brazil after an โextensive review with operational partners and international stakeholders.โ
Both schools are working with the NCAA and ESPN to determine whether the game will remain in Week 0 or shift to Week 1.
The Lions have hired former Dolphins GM Chris Grier as a personnel executive, per @AdamSchefter,
Grier spent nearly a decade as Miami's general manager from 2016-25.
Back to the football grind today. It was nice to unplug and enjoy the month of May but time to get back to work. Sorting through Lions stuff and jumping into the tape of the South Carolina defense.
Terrific young man and is one of the strongest players Iโve been around. Heโs an incredible worker and looks to finish in the run game on offense and can anchor at the point of attack on defense. Congratulations! Stay hungry, humble and determined! #HUNT
The NFL informed teams recently that this yearโs cutdown deadline to 53 players will be 6 p.m. ET on Sunday, Aug. 30 โ not the following Tuesday, as it has been in recent years, sources say.
Waiver claims will be due at 1 p.m. ET on Monday, Aug. 31. The season kicks off Sept. 9.
I love Jack Campbell because heโs real. Donโt think thereโs many players are saying what heโs saying.
โI already have more than enough.โ #OnePride
Jack Campbell: "For me, I donโt need to be the highest paid (LB), even though the guys around the league would probably appreciate that because it bumps up everything โ so Iโm sorry to them.
โI want to help the team in any way possible continue to keep the core together."
