Now that the NFL’s free agency period is winding down, the next big event on the league’s calendar is the 2026 NFL draft, and one of the top players in the draft is Notre Dame<\/a> running back Jeremiyah Love.<\/p>\n

The 91st annual NFL draft is slated to take place from April 23 through 25 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The NFL draft has a long history, with its roots dating back to the 1930s, according to the league<\/a>. The draft got its start in 1934, when Philadelphia Eagles co-owner Bert Bell felt that his team was at a disadvantage in signing top players<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“At a 1935 league meeting, Bell proposed that the NFL hold an annual player draft to level the playing field and make sure that every franchise remained financially viable,” the league adds. “League owners voted unanimously to adopt his proposal, setting up the inaugural NFL Draft in 1936.”<\/p>\n

Now, the draft is up ahead, and Love continues to be linked to one struggling NFL team.<\/p>\n

In a Monday, March 16 feature for USA Today<\/a>, Nate Davis and Ayrton Ostly make their draft projections from these talented NCAA<\/a> players. For Love, they see him easily going to the Tennessee Titans as the team’s No. 4 pick in the first round.<\/p>\n

“Love is an every-down back, one who\u2019s averaged 6.9 yards per carry and caught 55 passes over the past two seasons,” they note in the piece “The Titans could keep his usage in check as a rookie with RB Tony Pollard under contract for one more season. But pairing Love and Ward could potentially create an offense primed to surge ticket sales when the Titans move into their new stadium in 2027.”<\/p>\n

His NFL draft profile boasts that he<\/a> “shared carries but was the heartbeat of Notre Dame\u2019s offense over the last two years. He runs with a fierce tempo and processes the front with adequate eyes to find entry points and burst through them. Urgency works in his favor, but he\u2019ll occasionally miss open lanes when he gets too deep too quickly.”<\/p>\n

They also say that Love “is a three-down, scheme-independent player who would benefit from a complementary back to preserve his big-play ability.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Now that the NFL’s free agency period is winding down, the next big event on the league’s calendar…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":817355,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[7,49,6,1401],"class_list":{"0":"post-817354","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nfl","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-ncaa","10":"tag-nfl","11":"tag-notre-dame"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116245315180795702","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/817354","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=817354"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/817354\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/817355"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=817354"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=817354"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=817354"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
