While the overreactions are going to come with week 1 (and Zero) performances, the real scouts are going to take their time evaluating. And one of those who does it well is ESPN's own Jordan Reid. Jordan joins Neil and I to talk 2026 draft prospects, what he saw, what he wants to still see and who you should be taking a look at.
