In 2025, six Mountain West prospects were selected in the NFL Draft. Boise State running back and Heisman Trophy runner-up Ashton Jeanty was the first Mountain West player selected, going in the first round to the Las Vegas Raiders.
Now looking forward to next year, here are the top Mountain West prospects who could be chosen in the 2026 NFL Draft.
This doesn’t necessarily mean these players are coming out for the NFL Draft this offseason. These are simply the players who are draft-eligible that I think will be the best pros whenever their college careers are over.
