Ty Simpson is valuing himself highly entering the 2026 NFL Draft.

Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson will likely be among the top quarterbacks selected in the upcoming NFL Draft – analyst Dan Orlovsky thinks he should be the top pick – but exactly where he goes in the draft remains to be seen. But he has a pretty high opinion of when he thinks he should be called by name during the event. Simpson performed at Alabama's pro day on Wednesday in front of several NFL scouts, and afterwards, he talked with the media about his draft prospects.

Many think he will be a first-round selection, and he agrees he should find his new home on Day 1 of the event. "Absolutely," Simpson said. "I feel like I've done everything I can, but it's not up to me.

I just know that wherever I go, I'm going to give it my all and make sure I'll put my best foot forward. " "There's going to be a lot of questions around my name. I know what I'm capable of, and I know whoever gets me is going to get a good player and a guy who loves football and a guy who loves the team and loves being a part of something bigger than himself.

" Simpson is set for a private workout with the Jets on Friday and will have dinner with their top decision-makers tonight in Tuscaloosa. The Jets hold two first-round selections, with the No. 2 and No.
