🔥 Hot ▲ 537 r/Commanders+1 crossposts

[Schultz] The expectation among many NFL teams is that the 2026 draft will be one of the more trade-heavy drafts in recent memory, according to multiple league sources.

Specifically, on the defensive side of the ball — EDGE, CB and LB are all strong/deep — while WR is typically considered to be the most talented offensive position.

Several executives I’ve spoken with believe we’re likely to see a flurry of activity in the first half of Round 1.

Additionally, because this specific draft lacks depth in the later rounds, many teams plan to pursue extra Day 2 and early Day 3 picks, per league sources.

real talk— how we feeling about drafting Bain at 7?

ik a lot of ppl took him off their board bc the short arms but this dude is a game WRECKER, if we draft him at 7 i’ll still be happy

Mikey 💔

maybe he’ll be better back in the slot, idk if it’s worth drafting delane over one of the other blue chip defenders

Commander Tag Player Available around pick 71

Sorry about sending out pictures of my spreadsheet. I was trying to give everyone as much info as I could, but it got too much.

So let me try something else.

Here are the 5 best guests for players around the 71 pick:

Bud Clark safety from TCU

Kyle Louis, linebacker from Pitt

Jacob Rodriguez, linebacker from Texas Tech

Skyler Bell, wide receiver from UConn

Gabe Jacas edge from Illinois

Qualitative statement, again, based on the data I have been able to search while at lunch.
