Jacob Gibbs utilized a wide receiver-heavy strategy in a six-person PPR mock draft while selecting from the fourth overall position. Gibbs secured Puka Nacua with his opening pick, followed by Nico Collins and Malik Nabers to round out his first three selections. The roster construction prioritized depth at wide receiver to account for league settings that require three starting players at that position. By the time Gibbs reached his second turn, top-tier running backs were already off the board, prompting him to pivot to Bucky Irving and Rhamondre Stevenson in the middle rounds. The team finalized its lineup with quarterback Kyler Murray in the 13th round. Gibbs emphasized that the selection process focused on drafting based on roster strategy rather than strictly pursuing specific player rankings.
