The 2026 NFL Draft is approaching fast and league scouts are solidifying their big boards. Offensive Lineman Caleb Lomu could be among the players who hear their name called early in Pittsburgh this week when the NFL welcomes its newest class of rookies.
USA TODAY Sports has all the latest on where the prospect out of Utah may land.
Here's how USA TODAY's latest mock draft currently projects draft day will play out for the former college star.
The obvious issue for the AFC champs during the playoffs was protecting QB Drake Maye, who was sacked 21 times in four postseason games, including six times by Seattle in Super Bowl 60. RT Morgan Moses is under contract for two more years but just turned 35. A two-year starter at left tackle for the Utes, Lomu will need to get a little stronger in the NFL. But he might not need very long to displace Moses opposite LT Will Campbell.
Great mover at his size with discipline and ideal football IQ. He's a bit lean like his teammate Fano but experienced at left tackle. Early on in his development with plenty of room to grow. Could become the best tackle in the class thanks to his natural movement abilities at his size.
The 2026 NFL Draft will take place between April 23-25 in Pittsburgh.
Time: 8 p.m. ET (Round 1); 7 p.m. ET (Rounds 2-3); Noon ET (Rounds 4-7)
