Some people called the Jadarian Price pick at 32 a reach for the #Seahawks, never even having been a starter, but understanding the state of that position, and now Kenneth Walker gone, you can make sense of it!

Despite not owning a first-round pick, the Colts helped themselves tremendously in the draft, with a couple of potential legit contributors in round seven, I believe! Full AFC South draft & roster review: youtube.com/watch?v=ov1l... #NFL #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #Colts #ForTheShoe #NFLSky

The Panthers put together one of my favorite draft classes, continuing to get bigger & more physical across the roster! 💪🏼 Full NFC South draft & roster review: youtube.com/watch?v=CLF7GzDqLKM #NFL #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #Panthers #KeepPounding #DirtyBirds #Saints #WeAreTheKrewe #NFLSky

Even if the Donovan Mitchell-James Harden tunnel altercation was AI slop, I wouldn't blame him after efforts like this, in an elimination game. 🥴 #NBA #NYKvsCLE #KnicksVsCavs #EasternConferenceFinals #NBAFinals #NBASky

Indiana CB D'Angelo Ponds was my favorite pick the Jets made in the draft - a player whose been compared to his new head coach! ✈️ Full AFC East draft & roster review: youtube.com/watch?v=EO0QoB4wRaE #NFL #Footballtalk #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #Jets #TakeFlight #BillsMafia #FinsUp #NEPats #NFLSky

I was a big fan of what Browns GM Andrew Berry & company did in this year‘s draft! Here are my overarching thoughts! 🗣️ Full AFC North draft & roster review: youtube.com/watch?v=pgkhm2nIdZk #NFL #Footballtalk #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #2026NFLDraft #AFCNorth #Browns #DawgPound #NFLSky

Had to clip out 10 seconds to make the video fit, but @austingayle.bsky.social best summarized the actual value of #ConsensusBoards - not to say player A > player B, but how you should maximize your draft capital! Full episode: open.spotify.com/episode/1BI5XWJsox95MtYEugD1vz?si=1890a1a5f34842b0

Other than leading the country with 13 forced fumbles over the last two seasons and having 44 more tackles than anyone else in the FBS (298), this is the type of downhill attitude Mr. Irrelevant Buffalo LB Red Murdock (#2) brings to the table! 💥 #NFL #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #Broncos #BroncosCountry

It took until pick 254 - because he and Nussmeier for some reason must've been flagged - but the last player inside my top 100 was just drafted! Deion Burks was one of my favorites to watch! #NFL #NFLDraft #Colts #ForTheShoe #NFLSky

Scouting reports for 130+ prospects, big board, my ultimate mock draft - you can check out all my draft content at halilsrealfootballtalk.com 🙌🏼 #NFL #CFB #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #NFLX

Here's my version of what a potential Cowboys trade-up into the top 10 could look like! One of six trades in my ultimate mock draft 🎰 Here's the full version: youtube.com/watch?v=wNnZ5TQnZ7s #NFL #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #MockDraft #NFLMockDraft #DraftSTN #NFLSky #DallasCowboys #BirdGang

By no means is he a perfect prospect, but I'll never give up on Kansas QB Jalon Daniels. Instinctive play-maker with great elusiveness & arm talent. Especially in this QB class, someone should absolutely take a day three flyer on him! 💎 #NFL #CFB #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #NFLSky

His tenacity and strain as a run-blocker are what will get Georgia TE Oscar Delp onto an NFL field early, and earn him chances to show off his athletic ability as a pass-catcher! #NFL #Footballtalk #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #TightEnds #OscarDelp #NFLSky

I think Texas Tech LB Jacob Rodriguez was an honorable mention in all my draft-related content since last October, but it was time to finally put the spotlight on him as part of the annual "my guys" video! 🤠 Full video ⬇️ #NFL #Footballtalk #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #DraftCrushes #NFLSky

Oklahoma's Gracen Halton is a disruptive player along the interior D-line. If I can get him a couple of rounds later than Clemson's Peter Woods, that's not even a question about who I'm targeting in the draft! #NFL #CFB #CollegeFootball #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #GracenHalton #NFLSky

I don't know how you can watch Alabama center Parker Brailsford (#72) and tell me there are ten interior O-linemen better than him in this draft - tremendous snap-to-snap quickness, mobility, leverage and hand usage! 🐘 #NFL #CFB #CollegeFootball #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #RollTide #DraftSZN #NFLSky

I know he has historically short arms for someone playing on the edge defensively - and that does come with some issues - but I just can't quit Texas A&M's Cashius Howell, with his combination of suddenness, flexibility & energy! #NFL #CFB #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #CollegeFootball #NFLSky

Arizona State right tackle Max Iheanachor handled Texas Tech's dynamic edge duo as well as any OT in #CollegeFootball last season. That's despite stepping on a football field for the first time in 2021! 📈 #NFL #CFB #NCAAFootball #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #2026NFLDraft #DraftSZN #DraftTwitter #NFLSky

I find it odd that nobody's seemingly even brought up the name of Arizona State CB Keith Abney II in this draft cycle. Plays with supreme athletic confidence, yet also a chip on his shoulder, with a rare combination of twitch and fluidity 🔱 #NFL #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #KeithAbney #NFLSky

Having torn his ACL late in the season, Louisville‘s Chris Bell is kind of being forgotten in this deep WR class, but there aren‘t many guys at 6‘2“, 220 pounds who can bounce off defenders and run away from them like he does! 💨 #NFL #CFB #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #NFLSky

Cincinnati's Jake Golday is one of the more intriguing defenders in this draft - built more like an oldschool linebacker, but heavily lined up as a big nickel, with incredible speed in pursuit and the skill-set to become an all-around playmaker! #NFL #CFB #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #NFLSky

Notre Dame RB Jadarian Price's acceleration & ankle mobility to carry that speed through curvilinear movement are special! That should help him become one of the best kick returners in the NFL whilst he's learning the intricacies of the RB position! 💨 #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #NFLSky

First hit from my #FreeAgency video, where I matched all 32 teams with one player set to hit the open market. #Dolphins obviously are starting a massive rebuild, but Jeff Hafley wanted to bring his QB of the future along from Green Bay and construct this around him! #NFL #FinsUp #NFLFreeAgency

Oregon safety Dillon Thieneman had one of the best performances of any prospect at the #NFLCombine! The fluidity, speed & high-point ability at that frame might lock him into the top 20 Biggest combine risers & fallers: youtube.com/watch?v=SLj9qnL7P6k #NFL #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #NFLSky

Heck of a play by Texas Tech safety Cole Wisniewski, basically single-handedly shutting down this delayed tight-end screen! 🪚 #NFL #CFB #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #2026NFLDraft #DraftSZN #NFLX

The #NEPats have said they'll stick with Will Campbell at LT, but if they moved him and Jared Wilson one spot inside each and signed (former) Packer Rasheed Walker, I believe they could actually upgrade three positions on their O-line! #FreeAgency fits for all teams: youtube.com/watch?v=ra237ZCRLwU

The perspective is a bit deceptive, but Kentucky WR Kendrick Law kind of pulled off a double hurdle against Tennessee Tech 🫨 #CFB #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #NFLSky

That's quite the duck from the quarterback, but what a play to showcase his range for Pitt LB Kyle Louis, opening up from between the hashes to undercut a curl route at the numbers for a pick! 😳 #NFL #CFB #NFLDraft #NFLDraft2026 #DraftSZN #DraftTwitter #NFLSky

He was *just* off on a couple of deep balls and wasn't asked to do a whole lot in this game, but Sam Darnold's pocket navigation and sack avoidance were as good as they've ever been for him in #SuperBowlLX 👏🏼 #NFL #SuperBowl #NEvsSEA #NEPats #Seahawks #SamDarnold #NFLAll22 #NFLSky

I broke down in detail how the #Seahawks defend the run at such a high level from two-high safety looks in my #SuperBowl preview, but here's a perfect illustration of Byron Murphy's role in it - random 2nd & 1, both guards uncovered, just manhandles the center for the stuff! ⚓️

The #Seahawks defense squeezes the life out opposing passing games! 💀 For as much as they command space in zone coverage, when they lock onto receivers in man, they give those guys VERY little room to breath! (check the intended rub at the bottom) #NFL #SuperBowl #SuperBowlLX #NEvsSEA #NFLSky

Going through a bunch of #Patriots tape for my #SuperBowl preview, I stumbled upon this pin-point perfect throw from Drake Maye to beat the pole-runner in Tampa-2 for a chunk play. Exactly what will be needed to really challenge this Seattle D! 🎯 #NFL #NEPats #Seahawks #NEvsSEA #NFLAll22 #NFLSky
