About this listen
The 2026 quarterback class has already been labeled “weak,” “uninspiring,” and “one to avoid.” In Episode 2 of The Draft Podcast, we slow that narrative down and actually do the work.
This episode digs into why the early consensus on the 2026 QB class may be misguided, how draft narratives form long before evaluations are complete, and which quarterbacks are being unfairly dismissed because they don’t fit the current hype cycle. We separate traits from production, projection from reality, and talk honestly about what NFL teams are actually looking for when they evaluate the position.
Some quarterbacks are closer than people think. Others are being elevated for the wrong reasons. And a few names could dramatically reshape this class depending on how the next phase of the process unfolds.
This isn’t a hot-take episode. It’s an evaluation episode — and it sets the foundation for how we’ll talk about quarterbacks all draft season long.
