The Junior Arch Manning season in Texas will be under the heavy spotlight this next university football season, and many think that it is the favorite to win the Heisman trophy and become the n ° 1 choice of the NFL 2026 draft.
It is not a certainty that Manning will decide to become a pro of next year, but he has the opportunity to do so at three years of high school.
If he does it, the initiate of ESPN NFL, Adam Schefter, said that the league should borrow from the NBA and host a draft lottery.

The NBA Draft Lottery is designed so that the teams cannot land a season for the first global selection of the draft the following year. Although there was a debate on Monday on the fact that the Dallas Mavericks received the first choice of the draft of the NBA 2025, they were only 1.8% chance of obtaining the choice.
Admittedly, the NBA teams are still trying to lose to increase their percentage to win the first choice at the lottery. But the process is still working, and Schefter agrees with the NBA’s decision not to encourage you to lose completely.

“The more I think about it, the more I think the NFL should be in this company,” said Schefter on “Asportsman as an overview of Espn Radio. “They do not want the teams to land. They do not want the teams to lose. We had a few situations last year when, in the last match of the year, the [New England] The patriots put Joe Milton. I’m not telling you they are trying to lose, but they certainly don’t want to win. “”

Milton directed the patriots during the Bills of the week 18, 23-16, but Buffalo seated most of his starters for the playoffs.
However, the idea of Schefter is the one that could fall back.
“If nothing else, if the NFL could implement a lottery system, they would have a night of more notes,” said Schefter. “They make shows for everything else. Why would there not be a draft lottery show? It would evaluate huge. Could you imagine a year when there is a upper quarter-arre or the year Arch Manning out?

With Quinn Ewers drafted by Miami dolphins, Manning is the alleged starter of Longhorns for the 2025-26 college season. He flashed his talent in the matches that Ewers was injured or Texas was great, but he never had to lead the team for a full season.
Manning did not suggest one way or another concerning his project status for 2026.
