Just one more day remains in the 2026 NFL Draft, and 157 players will be hoping to hear their names called before the festivities in Pittsburgh end.
Entering Day 3, there remains plenty of talent on the board. Tennessee cornerback Jermod McCoy has endured the most shocking slide so far, as concerns about a balky knee have dropped the first-round talent out of the top 100 selections.
Elsewhere, LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier is the top quarterback on the board. The expectation is he will be the first signal-caller to come off the board Saturday, with players like Arkansas' Taylen Green and North Dakota State's Cole Payton being next in line to be selection after.
How will the final day of the 2026 NFL Draft unfold? USA TODAY Sports is tracking all of Saturday's results as they come in and will provide analysis and grades for the most intriguing selections.
McCoy was widely considered to be a first-round talent, but he slipped all the way to Day 3 due to concerns about his injured knee. The Raiders have long needed a true No. 1 cornerback, so taking a chance on McCoy at this juncture seems like a sensible gamble – if not, a steal.
