Nate Tice & Charles McDonald join forces to preview the 2026 NFL linebacker, cornerback and safety draft classes. The guys kick things off with the linebackers, headlined by star prospect Sonny Styles, plus interesting guys with some flaws like CJ Allen and Anthony Hill Jr.

Next up is the cornerback class, which features a clear top four in Mansoor Delane, Jermod McCoy, Avieon Terrell and Colton Hood. Nate & Charles give their favorite guys a little further down the board and break down what makes this corner class unique.

The two hosts wrap things up with the safety class, which, in addition to can’t-miss prospect Caleb Downs, has some really interesting pick-your-poison prospects towards the end of round 1 and early day 2 like Dillon Thieneman and Emmanuel McNeil-Warren.
