NFL Draft 2026: Raiders Pick Mendoza, Jets Bailey

0:00Yo, the 2026 NFL draft is here in Pittsburgh, and Field Yates dropped his final first round mock before the Raiders go number one. It's locked in, Las Vegas grabs Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza, the highest men and national champ winner, only the fourth ever like that since. 1967, Arm Talent, Accuracy, Raiders spark a new era with rookie coach Clint Kubiak. That sit at number two, projected to snag Texas Tech Edge, David Bailey, with his blazing first step and 14.5 sacks last year, beefing up. That pass rush. Cardinal Surprise at three, with Notre Dame running back, Jeremiah Love, the top Russia receiver hybrid, with 40 scrimmage scores since 20. 24, Titans, Giants, follow with Ohio State defenders, sunny styles, and Arbale Reese, to quarterback those fronts. Change of chasing needs, hard pass rush everywhere, from jets to Giants, offensive line for Browns, commanders grabbing Ohio State Whiteout, Carnell Tate, a mid-thin receiver depth.

1:05Chiefs double-dip safeties and corners later, Saints at Explosive, Jordan Tyson. One big trade, doffens flip a pick to Cardinals for number 30, landing Alabama QB, Ty Simpson to pair with Love and Marvin Harrison, Jr. Hypers buzzing with late heat, Colton Hood, now a first-round lock at corner, Texas A&M Guard, chased by Centus sneaking in late. Day three sleepers like Texas A&M DT, Tyler Oniatham, watch day two QB's Carson Bick and Drew Aller for Steelers or Jets, big arms sliding down. Some cooling off too, like injured corners and edges. Draftknights electric, trades brewing, risers falling, raiders on the clock soon, but these mocks got the league scheming. They locked for the real chaos unfolding right now.
