Just like many others, Colin Cowherd is excited about the edge rusher talent in the 2026 NFL Draft. In fact, he's so impressed with the talent at the position that he thinks five edge rushers could go in the top 15 in this year's draft. In his first 2026 NFL mock draft, Cowherd put on his general manager lenses and predicted what might happen with the top 15 picks. "I am going to draft based on what I would do as general manager, and I think it will look,mostly, like the first 15 picks," Cowherd said on Wednesday's episode of "The Herd." Does general manager Cowherd also think Mendoza should go No. 1? Who does he think the Jets should pick at No. 2? Does he have the Chiefs finding Patrick Mahomes another wide receiver at No. 9? Here's Cowherd's first mock draft. 1. Las Vegas Raiders: Fernando Mendoza, QB, Indiana Cowherd's thoughts: "Thats the easiest one. The Raiders need a quarterback. Fernando Mendoza is easily the best quarterback prospect. Is he Matt Ryan plus Heisman Winner? 16-0 at a non-traditional power, big arm, moves well, humble, gratitude, and you get that rookie quarterback contract for the next four to five years. 2. New York Jets: David Bailey, edge rusher, Texas Tech Cowherd's thoughts:"My second pick is a little different than everyone elses mock. I think the Jets draft David Bailey, the best pure edge [in the draft]. Hell walk into the Jets on one side youll have Will McDonald, on the other its David Bailey. I hear about Arvell Reese Arvell Reeseprojects as an edge rusher. I dont trust the Jets to get that right. This guy is a plug-and-play guy. He will be starting the first week." 3. Arizona Cardinals: Francis Mauigoa, OT, Miami (Fla.) Cowherd's thoughts:"I think Arizona should call on Fernando Mendoza, but their offensive line is a wreck and they have a new offensive coach. What do offensive coaches like Ben Johnson do? Solve the offensive line. Francis Mauigoa from Miami. He can play interior or tackle they may use him at both. The Cardinals had the 26th-ranked offensive line. He is solid in run- and pass-blocking. Theyve got receivers and backs and tight ends; they have got to get that O-line solved." 4. Tennessee Titans: Arvell Reese, edge rusher, Ohio State Cowherd's thoughts:"I think he's too talented to fall. He's 6-4, 240, 4.4. The Titans only had one player with more than five sacks last year. So I think he's just too talented for Robert Saleh to pass on here." 5. New York Giants: Caleb Downs, S, Ohio State Cowherd's thoughts:"They need secondary help, Caleb Downs. Best safety in the draft. He's pretty good in coverage. You can bring him here in blitzes like Nick Emmanwori. John Harbaugh is going to love him. You can play him defense and special teams probably Day 1. 6. Cleveland Browns: Carnell Tate, WR, Ohio State Cowherd's thoughts:"Their receiving core is a mess. Shedeur Sanders is capable of throwing the ball down the field, but Jerry Jeudy is inconsistent: drop issues, maturity issues. Carnell Tate kind of feels like a can't miss guy to me." 7. Washington Commanders: Mansoor Delane, DB, LSU Cowherd's thoughts:"Best corner in the draft is out of LSU. I think the Commanders, who have many issues they were a really bad team against the pass. He excels outside the numbers in man coverage. I mean LSU has always been a cornerback and wide receiver factory. Great instincts, excellent length." 8. New Orleans Saints: Jeremiyah Love, RB, Notre Dame Cowherd's thoughts:"He's the Jahmyr Gibbs of this draft. A home run hitter. I mean Alvin Kamara is now 30 and rushed for under 500 yards I mean, they were not a good run team. Love is a plug-and-play guy." 9. Kansas City Chiefs: Spencer Fano, OT, Utah Cowherd's thoughts:"[The Chiefs] were 25th in rushing, 28th in pressures, so they've got a lot of needs right now in Kansas City, but I think No. 1 right now is protecting Patrick Mahomes." 10. Cincinnati Bengals: Sonny Styles, LB, Ohio State Cowherd's thoughts:"Had an unbelievable combine. Trey Hendrickson is out the door. Sonny Styles is one of those guys you know, on any other team, he would have been the best player. But at Ohio State, he's the third or fourth-best player. [He's] 65, 245, runs a 4.5." 11. Miami Dolphins: Rueben Bain Jr., edge rusher, Miami (Fla.) Cowherd's thoughts:"He's just a baller, a playmaker, and the Hurricane fanbase is gonna absolutely love this. Miami doesn't get pressure on the quarterback. They were 25th last year in getting pressure on the quarterback. Look, I don't know how good Rueben Bain is with the arm issue, but I know, whenever I watched Miami play, he was unblockable." 12. Dallas Cowboys: Keldric Faulk, edge rusher, Auburn Cowherd's thoughts:"A great character guy. He was like All-SEC freshman team; he's been good for years at Auburn. Character guy in the building this kid is great. They need an edge rusher. He can defend the run and the pass." 13. Los Angeles Rams (via Atlanta Falcons): Makai Lemon, WR, USC Cowherd's thoughts:"Lemon can solve two issues. Davante Adams is 33. So he's the heir apparent to Davante Adams. And this kid is unbelievable. If he gets his hand on it, he catches it." 14. Baltimore Ravens: Kenyon Sadiq, TE, Oregon Cowherd's thoughts:"Had the fastest 40-time for a tight end. He's a little undersized, but remember, Isaiah Likely, the Ravens tight end, is a Ravens free agent. Mark Andrews is getting older, and they were top three in the NFL in 12 personnel. 15. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Cashius Howell, edge rusher, Texas A&M Cowherd's thoughts:"First-Team All-American at Texas A&M. It is a good edge rusher draft."

The Sun Belt Conference Mens Tournament Bracket entering the 2nd Round. | Chris Dobbertean using logos from SportsLogos.net2026 Sun Belt Conference Mens Basketball Tournament BasicsFormatFor the second season in a row, the Sun Belt is going with a diabolical seven-round ladder bracket that allows all 14 teams to participate and for both the womens (day sessions) and mens (night sessions) tournament, while keeping both events in the same venue over the same days. The bottom four teams will need to win seven games in as many days to claim the auto bid (not likely), while the top two seeds only need to win on Sunday and Monday.Of course, this format would work better in a conference that wasnt so even. Last season, there was a four-way tie at the top of the league. After all of the tiebreakers were accounted for, the two co-champs ranked highest in the NET, 91st-ranked Arkansas State and No. 107 Troy, were relegated to Saturdays quarterfinals, while 119th-ranked South Alabama and defending tournament champ James Madison, 156th, were placed in the semifinals.This season, Troy won the regular-season crown by a full-game, but there was a six-way tie for second at 11-7. As a result, the second-ranked Sun Belt team in the NET, Arkansas State (142, four spots behind Troy) ended up as the No. 7 seed, a fate even worse than what their draw as a co-champ a year ago. So, the Red Wolves will need to win five games in five days to win the title. Heres where all six 11-7 teams rank in the NET in order, followed by their seeding and how many games theyll need to win.Arkansas State (142 in NET, 7 seed, Third Round, five games)Marshall (162 in NET, 2 seed, Semifinals, two games)South Alabama (176, 6 seed, Fourth Round, four games)App State (183, 4 seed, Quarterfinals, three games)Coastal Carolina (217, 3 seed, Quarterfinals, three games)Texas State (236, 5 seed, Fourth Round, four games).If I were a Sun Belt athletic director, I would throw this tournament format into the Gulf of Mexico.ParticipantsWhile all 14 Sun Belt members are participating, this will be the final appearance for Texas State, who is off to the rebuilt Pac-12/9 after this year. The next tournament is likely to only have 13 team, as Louisiana Tech is currently not scheduled to join from CUSA until the 2027-28 academic year.SiteThis will be the Sun Belt Tournaments sixth straight season in Pensacola, Florida, with the event exclusively at the Pensacola Bay Center for the fifth season in a row.ScheduleDownloadable PDF BracketTV/Streaming InfoESPN+ ($) will stream all games before the championship.First Round (Tues. 3/3)Gm. 1: (13) Georgia State (10-22, 7-11) 75, (12) Louisiana 84Gm. 2: (14) ULM (4-28, 1-17) 80, (11) Old Dominion 87Second Round (Wed. 3/4)Gm. 3: (12) Louisiana (11-22, 7-11) 72, (9) James Madison 87Gm. 4: (11) Old Dominion (12-20, 7-11) vs. (10) Georgia Southern (16-15, 8-10), 8:30*The Eagles swept: 93-86 (away) on 1/3 and 87-84 (home) on 1/15.Third Round (Thurs. 3/5)Gm. 5: (9) James Madison (18-14, 9-9) vs. (8) Southern Miss (16-15, 9-9), 6The Golden Eagles won 73-65 on 1/31 in Hattiesburg.Gm. 6: Gm. 4 winner vs. (7) Arkansas State (20-11, 11-7), 8:30*Fourth Round (Fri. 3/6)Gm. 7: Gm. 5 winner vs. (5) Texas State (19-12, 11-7), 6Gm. 8: Gm. 6 winner vs. (6) South Alabama (21-10, 11-7), 8:30*Quarterfinals (Sat. 3/7)Gm. 9: Gm. 7 winner vs. (4) App State (19-12, 11-7), 6:30Gm. 10: Gm. 8 winner vs. (3) Coastal Carolina (19-12, 11-7), 9*Semifinals (Sun. 3/8)Gm. 11: Gm. 9 winner vs. (1) Troy (20-11. 12-6), 6Gm. 12: Gm. 10 winner vs. (2) Marshall (19-12, 11-7), 8:30*Championship (Mon. 3/9)Gm. 13: Semifinal winners, 7 (ESPN2)Mayhem PotentialData originally posted by Bob Vetrone Jr. on Twitterin 2020 with my own additions for the seasons beyond.Given how close Sun Belt regular seasons are, you shouldnt be surprised by the spread of conference tournaments by seed.

The Trojans are now in the OVC and heading to the United Athletic Conference (how the WAC is being rebranded) next season.Troy, Marshall, and Arkansas State (with five wins) are more likely to earn a 14 seed than any of the other 11 teams, with some contenders even ending up on the 16 line in recent bracket projections.Last NCAA Tournament AppearancesTroy: 2025 (14 seed, 1st Round)James Madison 2024 (12 seed, 2nd Round)Louisiana: 2023 (13 seed, 1st Round)Georgia State: 2022 (16 seed, 1st Round)Appalachian State: 2021 (16 seed, 1st Round)Old Dominion: 2019 (14 seed, 1st Round, C-USA member)Marshall: 2018 (13 seed, 2nd Round, C-USA member)Coastal Carolina: 2015 (16 seed, Round of 64, Big South member)Southern Mississippi: 2012 (9 seed, at-large, Round of 64, C-USA member)South Alabama: 2008 (10 seed, at-large, 1st Round)Arkansas State: 1999 (15 seed, 1st Round)Texas State: 1997 (16 seed, 1st Round, Southland member)ULM: 1996 (15 seed, 1st Round, Southland member)Georgia Southern: 1992 (15 seed, 1st Round, TAAC (ASUN) member)All 14 Sun Belt members have reached the field in the 68/65/64-team era.
