16 prospects to attend 2026 NFL draft in Pittsburgh

The NFL draft is April 23-25 in Pittsburgh. The likely first overall pick won't be in the Steel City should the Las Vegas Raiders do as expected and choose Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza. He wants to spend the day with his family, which is quite commendable.

There will be 16 prospects in attendance at the selection process. Sometimes this becomes the show within the big show as television focuses on players waiting to hear their name called. And when the player doesn't get the call, it becomes drama and sadness because of the agony the player goes through.
