Shedeur Sanders’ Slide, Winners from the Draft & Way-Too-Early Top 10 Prospects for 2026 NFL Draft

FOX Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt dives into Shedeur Sanders’ slide all the way to the 5th round of the NFL Draft, explaining why it happened to a player many believed would be selected in the Top 10. Klatt shares feedback he heard from people within the league and explains how things went from bad to worse as the picks continued to roll off the board (and why Shedeur landed in the perfect spot to prove people wrong). He also lists which teams were the biggest winners from the Draft before unveiling his Way-Too-Early Top 10 Prospects for next year’s Draft. Klatt wraps up the show by discussing the recent news around Madden Iamaleava - younger brother of Nico - as an NIL collective attempts to reclaim money paid out to him before he decided to transfer from Arkansas. He also points out why Tennessee can't have it both ways with how they've handled the Nico situation.
