The 2022 NFL Draft, the 87th edition of the National Football League's annual draft, is being held April 28–30, 2022, at the Caesars Forum on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada. The first round was held on Thursday, April 28, and will be followed by the second and third rounds on Friday, April 29. The draft will conclude with rounds 4–7 on Saturday, April 30. It is the first draft to be held in Las Vegas.
The first five selections were defensive players, the second-most taken at the start of a draft after the six in 1991. Along with the 1972 and 2000 drafts, it marked the third time defensive players were the first two picks after the first three picks in the previous year's draft were quarterbacks. Five defensive players from Georgia were also taken in the first round, the most from an individual school in draft history. Only one quarterback was taken in the first round at 20th overall, the lowest selection for a draft's first quarterback since 1997, and no running backs were taken in the first round for the first time since 2014.
