Wilson's final 2026 NFL mock draft: What I'm hearing with Round 1 one day away

This is it: my final 2026 NFL mock draft. It's the one where, after months of preaching "don't overthink it," I do just that one last time.

This is my best guess at how the first round will unfold, based on conversations with sources in recent days and weeks. Incidentally, my "what teams should do" mock drafts -- the ones that come out earlier in draft week -- fare better once the dust settles. Either way, enjoy (or get angry) one last time.

We all know who the Raiders are taking, but after that, it truly feels like anything could happen -- in a way that hasn't been the case in recent drafts. I keep hearing that the Giants love Jordyn Tyson at No. 5, and the teams I've spoken with think Ty Simpson will, in fact, go in the first round. There's also a good chance we could see nine offensive linemen come off the board on Day 1.

Alright, let's get to it!
