Cody Carpentier’s 2026 NFL Mock Draft 1.1
The College Football regular season is finished, and the College Football Playoffs commence this weekend. So I am back to bring you the second iteration of my 2026 NFL Mock Draft Series 1.0. This is mock draft series that starts at 1.0 and adds rounds with each number (the only way to do it), All the way through Mock 7.0 coming in April with 7 full-rounds, before the 2026 NFL Draft, Live from Pittsburgh. Picks will change, Some players may return to school, and Teams will trade between now and April.
The NFL has become a year-round league, from the season, free agency, the draft, and offseason OTA’s to fall camp, the league never sleeps, and neither do we at RosterWatch. Alex and I finished in the middle of the pack in 2024 for the Huddle Report competition. So it’s back to the drawing boards and time to begin research on the 2026 class not only to improve our mock draft skills but also to enhance our Dynasty Fantasy Football overview.
