As the world strives to move past the pandemic, this draft will be the second consecutive year that players and fans will be in attendance to hear their names read out by Commissioner Roger Goodell.

While a total of seven rounds will take place over three days, much of the fanfare will focus on Day 1 where NFL teams will draft the best and most highly sought after college football players. Day one of the draft will only feature the first round.

2022 NFL Draft - Day 1 First Round Order

After decades of featuring the draft all day on a Saturday and Sunday, the NFL moved round one to primetime Thursday in 2010. Although the NFL draft is an inexact science, most of the focus on whether a team drafted well or poorly rests on the few high-profile picks they make in the first round.
