The Elders: Breaking Down the Upperclassmen QBs in the 2026 NFL Draft Class
from Daft on Draft Podcast · host Cory Kinnan and James Foster
In this episode, we turn our attention to “The Elders” — the experienced upperclassmen quarterbacks expected to headline the 2026 NFL Draft class. While underclassmen often steal the spotlight, these veteran signal-callers bring leadership, refined mechanics, and years of on-field production that NFL teams covet. We break down their strengths, weaknesses, development curves, and ideal NFL fits, giving you a head start on evaluating the most seasoned QBs in college football. From fifth-year seniors to redshirt juniors, we evaluate the top returning names who could shape the 2026 draft conversation. Can experience and polish outweigh youth and upside? Which of these QBs has the tools to become a franchise cornerstone at the next level? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
