2026 NFL Draft First-Round Picks

The future is now: Here are all the picks in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft.

Surely, you heard the fans booing Roger Goodell Thursday night.

    They were the ones upset when their favorite team didn’t follow the pick in our Opta NFL mock draft.

    Hey, give some of these teams a break – they have a right to get their pick wrong.

    Some listened to the mock, of course – and plenty of teams probably got their first-round pick(s) right. The advanced data seems to agree.

    NFL Draft First-Round Picks

    1. Las Vegas Raiders – Fernando Mendoza, QB, Indiana     

    2025 Heisman Trophy winner’s 82.8% catchable rate was best among FBS draft prospects (minimum 150 attempts)
