Indy Stock Shake: 2026 NFL Combine Winners, Losers, and Draft Buzz
Indianapolis’s NFL Scouting Combine reshaped draft stock: receivers Brenen Thompson, Germie Bernard, and Jeff Caldwell elevated their profiles with explosive testing, while safeties and corners like Dillon Thieneman and Tacario Davis gained momentum. Defensive linemen Gracen Halton, DeMonte Capehart, and Dani Dennis-Sutton also surged, whereas Cashius Howell, Malachi Fields, Emmett Johnson, LT Overton, and Lee Hunter saw their ceilings trimmed. Seattle’s formal meeting activity was down this year. The event confirms trajectories but leaves plenty for Pro Days and medical checks to determine final draft boards.
