Nate Tice is joined by QB expert Derrik Klassen to deep dive on the 2026 NFL Draft quarterback class. The two quarterback gurus start with the three prospects at the top of the class, as they break down the tape of Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza (and his potential fit with the Las Vegas Raiders), LSU’s Garrett Nussmeier and Alabama’s Ty Simpson to determine who’s worthy of a first-round pick.

Next, Nate and Derrik move down the board to some intriguing late day two or three signal callers like Miami’s Carson Beck, Drew Allar from Penn State and Combine star Taylen Green from Arkansas.

Finally, the guys wrap things up with a few late-round dart throws to keep an eye on, including Cole Payton, Luke Altmyer, Cade Klubnik, Jack Strand (representing D2) and more.
