What is going on, everyone.

Welcome back to another episode of Beyond the Tape.

TJ Winkert here with you as all three days of senior bowl practice have come and gone.

So it is time to jump into another 2026 two round NFL mock draft.

Talking senior bowl winners, guys who have firmly moved themselves into the first round mix,

and guys who have firmly put themselves into the second round conversation.

Also, if you're looking for more senior bowl coverage, me and Zaday, Cassabadian, our lead fantasy analyst for 32B writers,

we did breakdowns each the last three days after practice,

including after day three, a kind of day three recap,

but also a holistic overall general winners from the Senior Bowl.

So definitely go check those out, but let's waste no time.

Let's jump right into this. Let's start with the Las Vegas Raiders definitely go check those out, but let's waste no time. Let's jump right into this.

Let's start with the Las Vegas Raiders taking Fernando Mendoza number one overall. There's not really a debate about it. That's going to be the pick. That's going to be what ends up happening there for Vegas. They get their new signal caller. New York Jets. I'm going to go with Ruben Bain Jr. They could use some defensive line help both at edge and on the interior.

And I see Bain as the best pure all-around edge rusher in this class, who you can also collapse inside in obvious passing situations. Really good band for 275. Good get off for that size as well. And really, I'm putting some hope. And that's scary to do when I'm saying about the Jets, considering everything that organization is doing right now. Holy cow. Different conversation for a different day. But I'm hoping they can up that 19th ranking last year in Stunson Twist, because I think that would be you build up speed, the bend, the power, all that stuff for Bain. I think stunts and twist, that would be an absolute cheat

code for him. So I would hope the Jets utilize some more of that. Then we get to the Arizona Cardinals, I'm going to go with Sunny Stiles. You know, last time out, I went Jeremiah Love and that's, like, if you're going BPA, those are the two guys to me. It's between. But here I'm, I'm going to admit it like I'm going to give son and styles a blue chip grade like he's going to be one of the few

blue chippers I have in his class and I've never given that to linebacker because you know

Abdul Carter became a good. I'm going to admit it, like, I'm going to give Sonny Stiles a blue chip grade. Like, he's going to be one of the few blue chippers I have in his class.

And I've never given that to linebacker because, you know, Abdul Carter became an edge rusher. Michael Parsons, I put in the edge group. So, yeah, Sunny Stiles, man, sure tackler fills gaps in the run game, sideline to sideline speed, safety converted to linebacker, but he has linebacker builds, very good in coverage for considering, you know,

college linebackers always have a little bit of work in progress. But like Stiles is much better than your average linebacker in coverage. So I'm going to give the Cardinals a huge upgrade to the middle of that defense. And that takes us to the Tennessee Titans. I'm going to go with David Bailey here just a little something different. They have two absolute ass kickers on the inside. and Jeffrey Simmons, Tavondre Sweat, that's as of David Bailey to have some really nice one-on-one opportunities. And dude, you give this guy one-on-ones, he's going to put up absolute crazy numbers. One of the best get-offs in this class, long arms, and he has the absolute best spin move as an inside counter in this class. You draft from the top five of the run, I mean, the pass rush pedigree. You live, he's a two and a half down player.

It's not the world's greatest run defender, but you're drafting for the pass rush juice. And that has some juice of the Titans need on that, you know, in that edge room for sure. To the New York Giants. I'm going to go Spencer Fano here. I'm going receiver heavy for the Giants. So I wanted to mix it up a little bit, go O-line here, receiver a little bit later on in the draft. But Fano, I think you play him at right tackle. Worst comes to worst. He becomes your future right guard starter. And I think they could use, you know, hard to imagine that Germain Illuminaur and their current right guard or their starters in five years time. So I think this is a guy that one way or another is starting somewhere on that

giant's offensive line. In a perfect world, it's at right tackle, though, doubling down on your investment in Jackson Dart in last year's first round. Then we get to the Cleveland Browns. I'm going to go with Cornell Tate here. Again, he's not my receiver one, but I'm going to have him be receiver one here. part of it's just the hometown ties.

The Browns like drafted in Ohio State guys for sure.
