NFL Combine fallout: 6 bold predictions after an action-packed week in Indianapolis
Who wants some bold takes after the fallout from the NFL Combine?
The NFL Combine has come and gone, and it has left me with some 2026 NFL Draft takes to get out.
There were clear combine winners and losers, and then those that matched their testing numbers to their tape quite well. However, I am not a big “NFL Combine winners and losers” piece writer, so let’s get a bit more creative with it instead. Instead of a winners and losers piece here, let’s talk over some NFL Combine fallout and what NFL Draft bold predictions the results in Indianapolis could lead me to make.
First tackle off the board? How many offensive linemen go in the first round? Will NFL teams be scared off of the Makai Lemon podium interviews and perceived reports of poor interviews? I’ve got bold takes on all of those questions and more!
So, after a long week at the NFL Combine, let’s let some takes fly.
