Daniel Jeremiah · Mar 3, 2026

Jeremiah laid out his post-combine board — Fernando Mendoza first, Jeremiah Love second, Ty Simpson 40th — and pegged Simpson as a second-round pick rather than a first-rounder. He also forecast round-by-round landing spots for the top running backs, receiver Germie Bernard, and several offensive linemen.

I view him as a second round pick.
