From Jeremiyah Love and Carnell Tate to Jadarian Price: Fantasy breakdown of 2026 NFL Draft, Round 1 Sporting News' Vinnie Iyer and NFL.com's Michelle Magdziuk break down every offensive skill player selected in the first round of the 2026 NFL draft perspective, led by the top quarterback, running back and wide receiver. After putting QBs Fernando Mendoza and Ty Simpson on the back burner in this class, Vinnie and Michelle analyze the two RBs, five WRs and tight end taken in the top 32 picks with a game of "draft 'em, watch 'em or forget 'em" in redraft leagues for the season. Vinnie and Michelle like Jeremiyah Love to the Cardinals and Carnell Tate to the Titans as landing spots but are a split on their ranking tiers. Jordyn Tyson (Saints) and Makai Lemon (Eagles) offer much upside with their landing spots, but new Jets Kenyon Sadiq and Omar Cooper Jr. hurt each other values. Plus, the Seahawks shock late by picking Love' Notre Dame No. 2 Jadarian Price to end the round, but he couldn't have asked for more ideal spot for immediate fantasy intrigue. 3:17 Jeremiah Love Lands with Cardinals: Impact on Fantasy Rankings 8:02 Titans Grab Carnell Tate: Immediate Expectations 11:02 Saints Select Jordyn Tyson: Evaluating Year-One Value 18:08 Kenyon Sadiq Joins Jets: Crowded Pass-Catcher Situation 21:23 Makai Lemon to Eagles: Stepping In for A.J.
