Draft boards with receipts.
Every board on this site is built from signals that survived a backtest — and every ranking comes with a plain-English why. No vibes, no hot takes, no “trust me.” Updated from live NFL camp depth charts for the 2026 season.
The Big Board — Best Player Available
Every draftable player in one Quant order, with market ADP beside it. The gap between the two columns is the whole point: tap any row for the receipts — scheme, 2025 production, injuries, line play, target competition, contract, and what Vegas thinks.
- Jahmyr Gibbs (RB · DET)ADP 1.4
- Bijan Robinson (RB · ATL)ADP 2
- Jonathan Taylor (RB · IND)ADP 5.8
- Puka Nacua (WR · LA)ADP 3.6
- De'Von Achane (RB · MIA)ADP 10.8
Year-Two Breakout Board
Second-year players most likely to jump. Score = rookie-season usage percentile (70%) + draft pedigree (30%), multiplied by camp depth-chart tier.
- Ashton Jeanty (RB · LV)125.0
- Omarion Hampton (RB · LAC)121.1
- Emeka Egbuka (WR · TB)120.0
- Tetairoa McMillan (WR · CAR)119.4
- Tyler Warren (TE · IND)118.8
Rookie Flier Board
This year's draft class ranked by draft capital × camp depth-chart tier — the coach's plan is the only on-field evidence that exists in August.
- Jeremiyah Love (RB · ARI)125.0
- Carnell Tate (WR · TEN)125.0
- Makai Lemon (WR · PHI)125.0
- KC Concepcion (WR · CLE)125.0
- Omar Cooper Jr. (WR · NYJ)125.0
Succession Map
Backups one snap away from inherited volume. Inheritance = starter fragility (games missed, injury-report weeks, age cliff) + job shakiness (expiring or cheap contract).
- J.J. McCarthy (QB · MIN)86.0
- Carson Wentz (QB · MIN)86.0
- Jonnu Smith (TE · GB)71.2
- Xavier Worthy (WR · KC)71.2
- Josh Whyle (TE · GB)71.2
