# Albert Breer — prediction record

Albert Breer covers the NFL for Sports Illustrated and appears regularly on The Herd with Colin Cowherd, The Rich Eisen Show, and 2 Pros and a Cup of Joe. His training camp notebook series takes him across the league — we've tracked his observations on the Bills, Browns, Bears, and Chiefs, along with his draft projections and player movement reports.

## Record

- **Accuracy:** 73.84%
- **MissedTakes Score:** 40.59
- **Graded articles:** 7
- **Graded individual calls:** 31
- **Clarity:** 100%

PROVISIONAL: fewer than 10 graded articles. This number is not yet meaningful, and they are excluded from leaderboards.

The MissedTakes Score is how much better than a naive baseline they did, not how often they were right. Zero means no better than a strategy requiring no knowledge. A record is counted in ARTICLES rather than individual calls, because thirty picks in one mock draft is one act of judgment rather than thirty.

### Apr 8, 2026 — scored 64.75 across 3 calls

Breer said Ty Simpson won't be a first-round pick and will likely land in the second round, while Indiana receiver Omar Cooper is probably a first-rounder and teammate Elijah Surratt might go somewhere in the top 100. He also called Oregon's Dante Moore the closest thing to a lock among the 2027 first-round quarterback crop.

### Mar 25, 2026 — scored 100 across 3 calls

Breer says the consensus he's gathered is that Fernando Mendoza is far and away the top quarterback of the class and a potential No. 1 overall pick, while some teams don't see Ty Simpson as a first-rounder — though he wouldn't be surprised if Simpson ends up going in the first round anyway. He also expects Aaron Rodgers to return to Pittsburgh for a 22nd season and sees a real possibility of the Eagles trading AJ Brown to the Patriots after June 1.

### Feb 27, 2026 — scored 100 across 1 call

Breer expects Fernando Mendoza to be the No. 1 overall pick, going to the Raiders, and considers him worthy of that slot. He also suggests four Ohio State defenders from that game will be first-round picks in this year's draft, and that the two Super Bowl teams hold picks 31 and 32.

### Feb 25, 2026 — scored 69.53 across 3 calls

Breer says he would be stunned if Fernando Mendoza did not go No. 1 overall to the Raiders, and he flags Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq as a combine standout who could run in the 4.3s and jump 40 inches.

### Nov 5, 2025 — scored 100 across 2 calls

Breer predicts Brock Purdy and Jacoby Brissett will be the starting quarterbacks in the Week 11 Cardinals-49ers game, and expects the Colts to commit to Daniel Jones going forward. He also thinks the top of the 2026 draft is weak while the 2027 class is strong, and names Kyler Murray and Tua as potential 2026 reclamation projects.

### Sep 4, 2025 — scored 16.67 across 3 calls

Breer picked the Bills to beat the Rams in Super Bowl 60 in Santa Clara, saying the Rams have a strong shot to win the NFC as long as Stafford holds up and that Buffalo finally breaks through.
