Renner's 2027 NFL mock draft: Dolphins tank for Arch Manning in loaded blue-chip class

The first round of the 2027 draft class is shaping up to be one of the most blue-chip laden drafts in recent memory. There are elite prospects at pretty much every high-value position in a way we haven't come close to seeing since 2021. The only question is: Will the quarterback group have more than one crown jewel atop the class, or will NIL convince potential top-10 picks to return to school? Either way, it's a great draft to be the New York Jets, who have a franchise-defining three first-round picks already. Note: The draft order was determined using the reverse Super Bowl odds at DraftKings Sportsbook . The Jets have three first-round picks: their own, the Cowboys ' from the Quinnen Williams trade and the Colts ' from the Sauce Gardner trade. The Cowboys have the Packers ' selection from the Micah Parsons trade. I wrote at the end of last year how the Manning down the stretch in 2025 was the one many expected. If he's that guy for a full season, then this is a no-brainer. If the Dolphins are drafting No. 1 overall, it likely means the Malik Willis experiment didn't pay off dividends. Manning would be stepping into a very rough situation, but at least it's one that's already gone through fire sale. The Dolphins are top three in cap space the next two offseasons to build around their young quarterback. While the Cardinals will likely be in the quarterback market, Smith is a ceiling-raiser for whoever is playing quarterback in Arizona. While Cardinals fans may have been duped before, this time is legit. Smith has dominated college football from day one with over 2,500 yards in two seasons. He has the tools to be an all-time great and turn average quarterbacks into high-end passing attacks. I don't need to outline why the Browns are in the quarterback market. Moore has some small things to improve upon, but he's already arguably the most accurate quarterback in the country with an effortless ability to spin it. The Raiders could obviously use a weapon for Fernando Mendoza, but you can't pass on Moore at this point. Like Jeremiah Smith, Moore has been in the running for best player at his position in college football since the day he stepped foot on campus at Notre Dame. There's everything there to be an island corner in the NFL , and he's already done just that in college. Back-to-back top five edges don't concern me for a handful of reasons. For one, you don't find many elite pass-rushers outside of high draft capital. Two, pressure with four will always be the Holy Grail. Three, Stewart is a more prototypical edge-setter in the run game than what's on the Jets roster. Four, the Jets have two more first-rounders to address needs. Finally, Stewart is the freakiest edge athlete since Myles Garrett. That's a good spot to be in to set the Jets up for long-term success. Goosby may be dealing with a minor knee injury currently, but I don't see that dissuading teams from a top-10 pick unless it turns into a major one. Goosby is the prototype physically, and he really started to figure it out in his first season as a starter. Tennessee will finally get Cam Ward's blindside locked down. Simmons is an elite speed rusher for a team that's missing that skill set from its edge group. It isn't a matter of if the Saints would take him here or not, but rather if he'll be here at all. Becker is the type of receiver that would pair nicely with Jaxson Dart's downfield aggressiveness. Not only can Becker separate deep, but he's also one of the best in the class at winning at the catch point. His addition would round out a superb young receiving corps with Malik Nabers and Malachi Fields. The Panthers have quietly revamped their defensive line into a formidable unit from one of the worst in the NFL. Adding Stone would turn them into a legitimately feared unit. With how important play on the interior is becoming, putting Stone next to Derrick Brown and Lee Hunter would make opposing offenses one-dimensional. That marks four top-10 pic [... truncated ...]

Predicting first-time NFL All-Pros at every offensive position: Caleb Williams, Jahmyr Gibbs among young stars

There were 11 NFL players whose stellar performance earned them inclusion on the Associated Press' All-Pro teams for the first time last season. That's nearly a quarter of the prior year's first and second teams that were turned over. With that in mind, CBS Sports explores which offensive players may be next to blossom and reach All-Pro status: Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert have yet to make an All-Pro appearance, so those are options for this category, but also not in the spirit of the exercise. The intended purpose is to project a player who has yet to reach his peak. Caleb Williams ' first season under head coach Ben Johnson was fruitful, but the encore should be even better if his offensive line protection holds up. Williams has a better understanding of the offense and has had more time to develop relationships with primary pass catchers Rome Odunze , Luther Burden III and Colston Loveland . The key for the USC product will be finding consistency while maintaining the ability to make downfield plays late in the down of which others are incapable. Six of the nine quarterbacks who were named All-Pros over the past five years were first-round picks. Williams was the No. 1 overall selection in the 2024 NFL Draft . Jahmyr Gibbs is the running back most likely to be named an All-Pro who has not already been so. Although the team signed Isiah Pacheco in free agency, the trade of veteran David Montgomery feels like Gibbs taking ownership of the role in the Motor City. The franchise is hoping the arrival of new offensive coordinator Drew Petzing can re-instill some of the magic that departed with Johnson. Gibbs has accounted for 1,800-plus all-purpose yards in each of the past two years. A candle is still lit for Ashton Jeanty, and while the trio of Quinshon Judkins , Breece Hall and De'Von Achane have battled injuries, they are more than capable of ascending to this level. As you're reading this, Arizona's Jeremiyah Love is dealing with a high ankle sprain, but he has three-down capabilities, and Arizona is clearly content giving him the bulk of the carries. Feature backs may be returning to the NFL. There have been at least a dozen 1,000-yard rushers in each of the past four seasons. There had been only two such seasons dating back to 2015. Of the nine running backs named All-Pros over the past five years, eight were taken in the first or second round; Kyren Williams ( Rams ), a fifth-round pick, was the exception. The only 6-foot-4 All-Pro receiver over the past five years was Tampa Bay's Mike Evans . Drake London would buck that trend. The former USC Trojan is entering his first season with Kevin Stefanski as head coach. Aside from tight end Kyle Pitts and London, Atlanta's pass catchers are Jahan Dotson , Olamide Zaccheaus and third-round pick Zachariah Branch . If London puts together a full season -- as opposed to the five games he missed last season -- then he may finish closer to the 158 targets he accumulated in 2024; in that season, he finished fourth in receiving yards. Thirteen of 17 All-Pro receivers have been taken in the top 100. When exploring the four who were not ( Stefon Diggs , Puka Nacua , Tyreek Hill and Amon-Ra St. Brown ), two likely would have been taken earlier if not for off-field concerns (Hill) and injuries (Nacua). The Texans ' Nico Collins and the Giants ' Malik Nabers are a few others who fit the mold of a first-time All-Pro. There is one less mouth to feed in Chicago's offense with DJ Moore traded to Buffalo, but wide receivers Luther Burden III and Rome Odunze may eat away at a portion of those newfound targets. Colston Loveland tallied 58 receptions for 713 yards and six touchdowns last season. Will new opportunities lead to the requisite statistics for him to ascend to All-Pro status? Green Bay's Tucker Kraft , Cleveland's Harold Fannin Jr . and Indianapolis' Tyler Warren are also worth consideration for the list. San Francisco's George Kittle is the only All-Pro tight end over [... truncated ...]

Breece Hall - Set to operate as bellcow

Hall is expected to be featured more prominently as the Jets' lead back this season, Connor Hughes of SNY.TV reports. Hall signed a three-year, $45.75 million contract with the Jets in May, and it now appears as if the 25-year-old's offensive snap share will go up in his fifth campaign with the team. The running back's usage peaked at a 67.5 percent offensive snap share in 2024 before dropping down to 61.1 percent in 2025. With the heightened expectations for Hall, Braelon Allen is set to operate as a clear No. 2 option while Isaiah Davis will play third fiddle in the backfield this year

Teddy Bridgewater retires again: Lions suddenly need a new backup QB behind Jared Goff

The Detroit Lions will search for a new backup quarterback behind five-time Pro Bowler Jared Goff after announcing that Pro Bowl backup QB Teddy Bridgewater is retiring from football at age 33 after 11 NFL seasons. Detroit placed him on the reserve/retired list Sunday. "Teddy Bridgewater is going to step away," Lions head coach Dan Campbell announced on Sunday . "I've known Teddy a long time. Man, the human being is unbelievable. Certainly the player: everything that he is about, the type of teammate that he is, the way he prepares. Always played the game up here [in his mind] and had a huge heart. He is going to be missed." Bridgewater, a first-round pick of the Minnesota Vikings in the 2014 NFL Draft , overcame a horrendous knee injury after dislocating his knee and tearing his ACL in practice before the start of the 2016 season. The injury derailed his tenure as Minnesota's franchise quarterback, but he rebounded with the New Orleans Saints as a fill-in for Pro Football Hall of Famer Drew Brees in 2019, when Campbell was the Saints' tight ends coach and assistant head coach. When Brees went down with a thumb injury that sidelined him for five games, Bridgewater balled out from Weeks 3-7, throwing for 1,205 yards, nine touchdowns and just two interceptions while completing 69.7% of his passes. New Orleans won all five games during that stretch. The Saints finished the regular season 13-3 and won the NFC South in part because of Bridgewater's heroics. That stretch propelled Bridgewater back into the ranks of full-time NFL starting quarterbacks, as he signed a three-year, $63 million contract with the Carolina Panthers in the 2020 offseason. Carolina traded him to the Denver Broncos in 2021. He eventually reunited with Campbell on the Lions on a one-year, $3 million contract in 2023 to serve as Goff's backup. Bridgewater retired for the first time at the end of that season before unretiring to rejoin the Lions in 2024. He left for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2025 before returning to Detroit this offseason. Just a few weeks into training camp, Bridgewater decided to call it quits for good. He finishes his career with 15,182 passing yards, 75 touchdowns and 47 interceptions while completing 66.3% of his passes for a 90.3 passer rating in 83 games with 65 starts. "I'll never forget 2019 when Drew [Brees] got injured, and we had just gone out to the Rams and got beat out there. Drew had his thumb [injury], and we lost him for five weeks. Teddy stepped in, and we won five in a row, man," Campbell said. "That was Teddy. His time being with us [in Detroit] meant a lot, and it meant a lot to our guys. He's going to be missed."

Jahmyr Gibbs becomes highest-paid running back in history after agreeing on three-year extension, per report

Jahmyr Gibbs ' hold-in has come to an emphatic end. Gibbs has become the highest-paid running back in NFL history after he and the Detroit Lions agreed to a three-year, $67.5 million deal that could be worth up to $75.75 million, according to ESPN . The deal also includes $51.5 million guaranteed. Gibbs' deal comes two days after the Atlanta Falcons and Bijan Robinson agreed to terms on a three-year extension worth up to $75 million, with $51 million guaranteed. Robinson's deal was the highest for a running back in NFL history. Earlier in the day, fellow running back Jonathan Taylor agreed to terms with the Indianapolis Colts on a two-year, $44 million extension. Taylor's new deal comes three years after he signed a three-year, $42 million deal that, at the time, was a monumental step for running backs from a monetary standpoint. Along with Taylor, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley was a key player in helping the running back position rebound after it was devalued for a time. Barkley became the first running back to earn at least $20 million annually when he signed a two-year, $41.2 million extension last season after rushing for over 2,000 yards and helping the Eagles win the Super Bowl . Taylor and Barkley are now flanked by Gibbs, Robinson in the "$20 million" club. Bijan Robinson (Falcons) 24 $22.25 million Saquon Barkley (Eagles) 29 $20.6 million Christian McCaffrey ( 49ers ) 30 $19 million De'Von Achane ( Dolphins ) 25 $16 million Derrick Henry ( Ravens ) 32 $15 million Breece Hall ( Jets ) 25 $14.5 million Kenneth Walker III ( Chiefs ) 26 $14.35 million Gibbs' production during his first three seasons more than validates his historic extension. According to CBS Sports Research, his 49 touchdowns during his first three seasons are the most in NFL history. He is first in scrimmage yards (3,768) and first in scrimmage touchdowns (38) in the NFL over the past two seasons. Gibbs is also the second player in NFL history (with Nick Chubb being the first) to average at least 5.0 yards per carry in each of his first three seasons (with a minimum of 150 touches). His 5.9 yards-per-touch average during his first three seasons is tied for the second-most in NFL history since the 1970 merger. With a new contract in tow, Gibbs will continue the work of helping the Lions rebound from last year's disappointing season. Detroit finished with a winning record for a fourth straight year, but they missed the playoffs for the first time since 2022, when they also finished 9-8

Jets RB Isaiah Davis will miss 'a couple weeks' with a knee injury

Jets running back Isaiah Davis will miss some time with a knee injury, coach Aaron Glenn announced Thursday. Glenn did not specify the nature of the injury but said it is not serious. “He had a minor knee [injury],” Glenn said after practice, via Dennis Waszak of the Associated Press. “He’ll be out maybe a couple of weeks, but he’ll be back . I’m confident that he’ll be just fine going into the regular season.” The Jets open the regular season on Sept. 13 at Tennessee. Davis, 24, is entering his third NFL season after the Jets selected him in the fifth round. He is expected to have a complementary role behind Breece Hall and Braelon Allen while being a core special teams player. He had career highs with 236 yards rushing and 21 receptions last season in 16 games before missing the season finale with a concussion. In two seasons, Davis has rushed for 410 yards and a touchdown on 73 carries and caught 30 passes for 261 yards and a score

Colts signing Jonathan Taylor to two-year, $44 million extension as another NFL RB gets paid, per reports

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is now a much richer man. The star seventh-year back will sign a two-year contract extension with his team that pays him a base value of $44 million, $39 million of which is guaranteed, according to multiple reports . The contract has a maximum value of $47 million. The deal comes together just days after Atlanta Falcons star Bijan Robinson signed a new deal with a base value of $22.75 million per year, which clearly set the market for running back contracts. Taylor now becomes the second-highest-paid running back in the NFL in terms of average annual value, jumping ahead of Philadelphia Eagles star Saquon Barkley , who sits at $20.6 million. Bijan Robinson (Falcons) 24 $22.25 million Saquon Barkley (Eagles) 29 $20.6 million Christian McCaffrey ( 49ers ) 30 $19 million De'Von Achane ( Dolphins ) 25 $16 million Derrick Henry ( Ravens ) 32 $15 million Breece Hall ( Jets ) 25 $14.5 million Kenneth Walker III ( Chiefs ) 26 $14.35 million The $39 million full guarantee, meanwhile, slightly surpasses Robinson for the most ever for a running back, excluding Jeremiyah Love's fully guaranteed rookie-scale contract as the No. 3 pick in this year's NFL Draft , according to Over the Cap. Taylor had been heading into the final season of the three-year, $42 million extension he signed in 2023. He is set to draw a base salary of $11.98 million in 2026 while counting for $15.562 million against the cap. Taylor led the NFL in both carries (323) and rushing touchdowns (18) last season, and has run for at least 1,400 yards and 11 touchdowns in each of the last two years. He's heading into his age-27 season and is the clear centerpiece of the Indianapolis offense. The Colts started last season absolutely on fire offensively under quarterback Daniel Jones , leading the league in scoring for the first half of the season. They slowed down a bit after Jones suffered an initial leg injury, then suffered further after Jones tore his Achilles and the team had to turn to Philip Rivers , whom they signed off the street. With Jones back healthy in time for training camp, they are trying to recapture the form they had at the start of last year, and Taylor is clearly one of the keys to their doing so. Of course, the Colts also spent a bunch of money to retain Jones this offseason, handing him a two-year, $88 million contract to return to the fold. Field-stretching wide receiver Alec Pierce also received a big-money contract, with the Colts re-signing him for $114 million over four years. Indianapolis is now clearly counting on that trio to hold down the fort down the offense over the next couple of years
