Summary
Our NFL Draft Writer Josh Edwards is back with his thoughts on the 2026 tight ends and quarterbacks. First, we've got some news and notes (3:45) as the Eagles acquired Dontayvion Wicks and the Jaguars are moving Travis Hunter to cornerback full time in 2026 ... Discussing the TEs first (13:35), Josh gives an overview of the position and then we talk about Kenyon Sadiq (17:15). He's a freak athlete, but how does he compare to Colston Loveland and Tyler Warren? Who are the next best TEs (25:30)? One of them is a guy who has had very little production, but huge upside. And we get into Eli Stowers (30:00), Michael Trigg (35:00) and more ... On to the QBs (40:00), what are the Raiders getting in Fernando Mendoza? Should he even be the #1 pick!? How does he compare to Cam Ward? We also spend a lot of time on Ty Simpson (49:00) with the pros and cons plus how much injuries factor into his evaluation. Finally, are there any other QBs (1:00:00) who might make an impact on your Fantasy team? Don't sleep on Garrett Nussmeier or Cole Payton ... Email us at fantasyfootball@cbsi.com
