Arch Manning Tops Early 2027 Draft Projections as Moore Closely Trails
A preseason first-round mock for the 2027 NFL Draft projects Arch Manning as the likely No. 1 pick over Dante Moore, with Manning favored for his size, arm talent and athleticism and Moore a close second; both QBs could still have college eligibility in 2027, meaning they may not declare for the draft right away. Based on Austin Mock’s win totals, Manning lands with the Arizona Cardinals at No. 1 and Moore with the Miami Dolphins at No. 2, in a class teased as potentially loaded at quarterback. The mock also catalogs a wide array of prospects across positions (WR Jeremiah Smith, CB Leonard Moore, edge Dylan Stewart, WR Cam Coleman, QB CJ Carr, etc.) and mentions the Jets as a likely trade-up candidate amid several first-round picks in 2027.
