Summary
The combine dust is settling and the 2026 NFL Draft picture is getting clearer — and messier — by the day. In this loaded episode of the Draft Room, we tear through the biggest news and notes coming out of Indianapolis, from jaw-dropping athletic performances to the quarterback drama that just won't quit.
- Ty Simpson Chaos: Arizona Cardinals staffers reportedly love him, the Miami Dolphins are lukewarm, and the Cleveland Browns may be circling Anthony Richardson — meanwhile, Simpson might go anywhere from third overall to the second round. Nobody knows anything.
- Combine Winners: Skyler Bell's elite testing at UConn cements his status, Kenyan Sadiq's 4.39 at 241 pounds is a freak show, Latrell McCutchen and Malik Muhammad ran significantly faster than expected, and Enrique Cruz — a name you haven't heard — put up one of the best OL workouts in years.
- Danny Dennis Sutton's Problem: An elite combine performance actually frustrated scouts more — because it proved he wasn't playing to this level on Saturdays. A character question, not an athletic one.
- Team Intel: The Jets are going all-in on defensive spending, the Bears got great value shipping DJ Moore to Buffalo, and the Texans plan to patch the offensive line in free agency and swing big in the draft.

| 0:18.6 | This is the NFL draft podcast of the Packernet Podcast Network. |
| 0:22.8 | If you'd like to call in, you can do so. I probably shouldn't have closed that tab so I can give you the phone number. |
| 0:28.8 | The phone number is 608. There it is. 561-3-243.608. 56-2-4-3. Well, today I don't have so much of a, you know, like a theme, |
| 0:45.1 | but we have a ton of news and notes to get through. And I just want to start chipping away at that if we can. |
| 0:51.7 | We still have the offensive side of things as far as the Kevin Cole. But I want to start chipping away at that if we can. We still have the offensive side of things as far as |
| 0:55.1 | the Kevin Cole, but I want to push that off for just a second and see if we can't get some of |
| 1:02.5 | this stuff off of my to-do list here. I also want to remind you my 2026 Big Board, which is not only, |
| 1:10.6 | I mean, Big Board is such a weird way to put it because I don't have grades yet. I need to do that just so, you know, because I'm so tired of looking at these fake grades, which put my thing in such a weird order. It's mostly a draft guide is really what it is. And so if you're interested in that, there's a link in the description. |
| 1:30.6 | I am updating that every single day. |

| 1:36.5 | But I am working on this daily. |
| 1:40.8 | And things that you hear me talk about on the podcast do get added to it. So it just ends up being |
| 1:47.8 | it's a guide, but it's like a living guide. You know, there's news and notes. It's not just here's |
| 1:54.6 | this guy's strengths and weaknesses. It's here's what's being reported about this person. This is |
| 1:59.0 | the latest news and rumor about this guy. |
| 2:01.4 | And then again, I also have the team hub. |
| 2:03.8 | So any news and notes about teams, what they're looking for, this, that, or the other, |
| 2:08.4 | that will be added as well. |
| 2:10.5 | It's just to kind of keep you up to date as much as possible. |
| 2:13.7 | So if a name comes up and it's not a name that, you know, you're necessarily |
