Tempe, Arizona — Jordyn Tyson, a standout wide receiver for Arizona State, is generating significant buzz ahead of the 2026 NFL Draft. As of mid-October, Tyson has recorded 47 receptions, contributing to 77% of his team’s total catches. His remarkable performance has caught the attention of NFL scouts and analysts, with ESPN speculating he could be drafted seventh overall by the New York Giants.

Tyson’s consistent play has made him one of the most coveted prospects in this year’s class. Analysts believe that pairing him with Giants’ quarterback Jaxson Dart will enhance their offensive strategy, especially as Dart develops into a potential franchise quarterback. Tyson’s contributions include seven touchdown receptions, ranking him among the leaders in the nation.

Despite the team’s struggles this season, Tyson’s skill set has shone brightly. In particular, he maintained performance levels even when his quarterback transitioned from starter to backup. Tyson was able to manage eight catches for 40 yards in a recent matchup against Utah, showcasing his ability to adapt to changing circumstances.

Meanwhile, projections have the Arizona Cardinals selecting offensive lineman Spencer Fano from Utah with the eighth overall pick. Fano’s functionality as an offensive tackle solidifies the team’s need for long-term solutions, particularly as existing players approach free agency. With five rushing touchdowns permitted and 102 rushing yards allowed per game, the Cardinals’ defensive strategy is under scrutiny.

Both Arizona teams are facing pivotal moments in the season, making their upcoming drafts crucial for team rebuilding and long-term success.
