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!

When: Thursday, April 23, 2026 at 6 p.m. MTWhere: Acrisure Stadium, the North Short, and Point Start Park in Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaHow to watch: ESPN, ABC, and NFL NetworkStreaming: NFL+, ESPN App, Disney+, and Hulu

In the first round, teams will have eight minutes per pick. In the second round, the clock will shrink to seven minutes. Then from rounds four to six it is reduced even further to five minutes per pick and, finally, in round seven it drops to just four minutes per pick.

We covered 55 prospects this draft season. The list has a heavy-Broncos focus on it, but there might be a few guys here who go in the first round.
