There have been countless NFL teams in recent years who have cracked the method to drafting: selecting players from powerhouses works more often than not. The Oregon Ducks have become one of these teams that pro organizations poach from, having 10 players drafted just this year.
Now considered among college football’s elitists, Oregon constantly replenishes their talent stockpile, so they’ll have a number of stars taken in the 2026 draft as well. ESPN’s Field Yates recently concocted a preseason mock draft for next year, where he has the Ducks having two players selected in the first round.
