The NFL Red Carpet is coming together at the NFL Draft Fan Experience at Point State Park, Wednesday, April 22, 2026 in Pittsburgh, Pa. Seventeen NFL Draft propsects will walk the carpet night one of the draft. | Ethan Morrison / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images
The day has finally arrive and the 2026 NFL Draft will soon be over. It goes by quicker than you always expect it to. The first round is tonight for Day 1, then Day 2 will cover both the second and third rounds, before Day 3 speed runs through the fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh rounds.
For the Denver Broncos, it is highly unlikely we’ll see them trade up into the first round, so just sit back, watch some Jaylen Waddle highlights and root for the AFC West to draft all the first round busts possible. Or just enjoy the process. It is a fun and unique event that many of us look forward to every year — even during the Elway years when he was drafting not so great players every April.
Here are the details for the 2026 NFL Draft and other odds and ends. Enjoy Day 1 of the draft tonight!
