Ahead of next weekend’s Super Bowl LX and the end of the 2025 season, Draft Wire’s Curt Popejoy has released an updated three-round 2026 NFL mock draft.
The Denver Broncos kept their original picks through the first three rounds, with Popejoy allowing Denver to add two backs and then add a spark to the team’s backfield.
