With Super Bowl LX approaching, attention is already shifting to the 2026 NFL Draft.
Events like the Senior Bowl, East-West Shrine Bowl, upcoming NFL Scouting Combine, and college pro days are putting the next wave of talent under the microscope.
Most mock drafts currently project Fernando Mendoza (Indiana) — the reigning Heisman Trophy winner — as the likely No. 1 overall pick.
That leaves QB-needy teams debating the next tier of quarterbacks, with scouts focusing heavily on:
• Ty Simpson (Alabama)
• Carson Beck (Miami)
• Garrett Nussmeier (LSU)
Each has upside — and clear question marks.
