NFL draft analysts Matt Miller and Field Yates answer seven big questions about the 2026 draft 12 months out.

The 2026 NFL draft will take place in Pittsburgh in April .

The quarterback position should have a bounce-back year, with more first -round signal-callers expected.

Clemson 's Cade Klubnik , LSU 's Garrett Nussmeier and Drew Allar are well-known prospects.

Clemson 's stars Woods and Parker could be the best players at their respective positions and get selected in the top-five picks.

Miller : Much like the 2025 class, next year's group is very strong along the defensive line.

Yates: The most obvious difference is the potential of the QB class.

Rittenberg : I'll choose a different former Purdue player than Matt did.
