2026 NFL Draft Big Board: Fernando Mendoza Leads 4 QBs in Top 100

Overall the class is thinner at the very top but surprisingly deep — especially along the offensive line, defensive line, defensive backfield and wide receiver — with lots of starter-caliber names through the first 100 picks.
Quarterback attention centers on Fernando Mendoza as the likely No. 1, but Jeremiyah Love is the true offensive standout (and a top-tier running-back prospect); there are also Day‑2 QB candidates like Carson Beck and Garrett Nussmeier.
Plenty of high-upside, conversation-worthy prospects: Reese (Micah Parsons comp) and Bailey as elite pass‑rush types, Sonny Styles and Thieneman turned heads at the Combine, and big-play runners/receivers like Love, Branch and Tyson.

Heated moment at Phoenix: Rasmussen and Will Power banged wheels, Rasmussen hit the wall — both kept going but were out of contention and no penalty was given.
Power owned up and apologized after reviewing the tape; he's frustrated after multiple crashes early with Andretti Global.
Rasmussen shrugged it off, stayed optimistic about the car’s speed and future races — “racing is 95% losses,” he said.

Italy stunned Team USA 8-6, turning a celebratory late-night clubhouse into the backdrop for one of the WBC’s biggest upsets.
Aaron Judge and manager Mark DeRosa downplayed any letdown—DeRosa admitted he “misspoke” about being already through—while players said they were simply enjoying the shared clubhouse experience.
The loss means Team USA no longer controls its fate: if Italy beats Mexico, Italy and the U.S. advance; if Mexico wins and scores 5+ runs, the U.S. advances with Mexico; a Mexico win by 4 runs or fewer would eliminate Team USA.

Maxx Crosby is back in Las Vegas after the Ravens scrapped a trade when he failed their physical — he’s already rehabbing with the Raiders and his camp says he’s on (or ahead of) schedule.
Baltimore quickly moved on, signing Trey Hendrickson, and Dallas looks unlikely to rekindle interest after adding Rashan Gary, so Crosby’s immediate market has cooled.
The Raiders say they still want a big return (reports say two first-round picks) but now must juggle Crosby’s $35.7M cap hit alongside several costly free-agent signings, making for an interesting offseason dilemma.

That flexibility helped Buffalo re-sign center Connor McGovern (who said Allen advocated for the deal) and acquire WR DJ Moore.
The team is in transition with new head coach Joe Brady and a defensive overhaul under coordinator Jim Leonhard.
