NFL Draft's Edge Rusher Showdown: Who's Set to Dominate in 2026?

Damian Parson and Keith Sanchez break down three potential first-round edge rushers for the 2026 NFL Draft. The duo analyzes Oregon's Matayo Uiagalelei, a 6'5" defensive powerhouse, is drawing comparisons to Michael Bennett. Indiana's Mikail Kamara emerges as the group's outlier, with his impressive 18 QB hits and 10 sacks despite a shorter frame. Stanford transfer David Bailey rounds out the discussion, as the hosts debate his fit in Texas Tech's defense and a pass-heavy Big 12 conference.

Will Uiagalelei's youth and versatility propel him to Edge 1 status? Can Kamara's production overcome his size concerns? Tune in for expert insights on these game-changing prospects and their path to NFL stardom.
