The lone exception is Michigan wide receiver Roman Wilson, who was still widely linked to the team ahead of being picked. In 2025, three of the teamās seven draft picks were pre-draft visitors. In 2024, it was five of seven. You get the idea. So what about the pre-draft visits in 2026? In total, there are 33 when counting local visits. From there, hereās the breakdown by position:
