What happened: RapSheet shared a preview from NFL Draft Kickoff outlining what tonight's NFL Draft should look like for Alabama QB Ty Simpson. The content projects his landing spot and team fits as a pro prospect. Simpson, a mobile passer from the Crimson Tide, enters the draft after a strong college career.

Why it matters: Simpson's selection could fill a QB need for several teams lacking depth. Betting props on his pick position have seen action, reflecting prospect hype. His traits offer Day 2 value in a draft thin on elite quarterback talent.

By the numbers: Mock draft avg: 48th overall (x_search mocks). 2025 stats: 3,450 pass yds, 27 TD, 8 INT, 68% comp; 450 rush yds, 6 TD.

What to watch: Monitor Round 2 selections tonight for Simpson's team and slot.
