Name The Prospect you would be estatic if we drafted here in 2026

I haven’t really got a most-wanted in this draft, yet I figured this might be a fun exercise.

Ponds in the 2nd round. If there was a kid that fit the Brad/Dan mold more than him I haven’t seen him. He’s like a rich man’s Amik

All things being equal, I think Mauigoa is the best combo of prospect + solves the most problems. Bain is tempting too, I just think Mauigoa is a slightly better overall prospect (mostly because I think if he failed at RT - and I doubt he will - he could be an all-timer at OG), but one of those two guys would be my choice.

I hate the idea of trading up but I would make an exception if we landed one of those two guys. They are my favorite two guys in the draft. I also like Freeling alot.

Fano, Bain, or Freeling in round one

Vega is really starting to grow on me. I think he would definitely be the bpa at 17, and the thought of him next to Sewell has me feeling nicey!

I think Kenny Rogers made a song about him

Caleb Banks as a 2 down DE that slides inside on 3rd down to rush the passer.

Downs or Bailey would be incredible, but I in no way see that happening.

Arvell Reese

thank you all -it’s really appreciated ! you can keep them coming-if any of the rest of you have an ideal prospect -you would love to be a Lion.

Dream? Reese. At 17? Vega or Freeling.

My feeling with Vega and Sewell could be unbelievably dominant together.

Freeling would make me feel better about the line overall.

I don’t think he’ll be there, but I really want Fano and move Sewell to the left side. While he’s not an ideal fit, and probably won’t be there anyway, I’d like Derek Moore in the 2nd.

Welcome back! You’ll probably like the Den mock we did then, we got Fano at 17. Though Jacas ended up getting the nod over Moore in the 2nd.

Yeah I’d be happy with it. I mean I’m not against Freeling, but I feel like he’s got more work to do(from a mental standpoint) then Fano before he becomes a legit starting tackle

Oh he does, for sure. Fano or Mauigoa are by far the most ready. The question with Fano is if he can hold up outside. I’m a big Freeling fan, but fully admit he still has a ways to go. I thought the incremental improvement during the season was highly encouraging though. He was a different player by the last 4 or 5 games, bodes well for his future. And in fairness, in that Den Mock Freeling was long gone. I think he went 6?

Hey @Cashmachine , been a minute-good to see you again .
