## Resource

We’re reacting to the latest 2026 ESPN NFL Mock Draft from Mel Kiper, Matt Miller, Field Yates, and Jordan Reid — breaking down the biggest picks, surprises, and what it all means for the NFL landscape. Then we switch gears into our NFL Budget Challenge, where we build full teams using a tiered system from $5 superstars to $1 sleepers. Strategy, roster construction, and debate take center stage as we battle it out to see who built the best team.
