The NFL announced a record 26 confirmed top prospects who will attend the 2012 NFL Draft at Radio Music City Hall in New York City. Which includes a record five players from Alabama, the 2012 BCS Champions.

Players confirmed to attend the 2012 NFL Draft:

1. Mark Barron, S, Alabama

2. Justin Blackmon, WR, OSU

3. Micheal Brockers, DT, LSU

4. Morris Claiborne, CB, LSU

5. Quinton Coples, DE, UNC

6. Fletcher Cox, DT, Mississippi State

7. Coby Fleener, TE, Stanford

8. Micheal Floyd, WR, Notre Dame

9. Stephon Gilmore, CB, SC

10. Robert Griffin III, QB, Baylor

11. Cordy Glenn, T/G, Georgia

12. Dont’a Hightower, LB, Alabama

13. Stephen Hill, WR, Georgia Tech

14. Melvin Ingram, DE, SC

15. Matt Kalil, T, USC

16. Dre Kirkpatrick, CB, Alabama

17. Andrew Luck, QB, Stanford

18. Shea McClellin, LB, Boise State

19. Nick Perry, DE, SC

20. Dontari Poe, DT, Memphis

21. Rueben Randle, WR, LSU

22. Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama

24. Ryan Tannehill, QB, Texas A&M

25. Courtney Upshaw, LB, Alabama

26. Kendall Wright, WR, Baylor

  • 1st round kicks-off April 26th at 8pm ET.
  • 2nd-3rd round on Friday, April 27th at 7pm ET
  • 4-7th starts noon on Saturday, April 28th.

With a record, 26 players attending the 2012 NFL Draft, the question must be asked – Will all these guys get picked in the 1st round? Getting passed over in the 1st round and being one of the few, if only guy remaining in the green room has to be a horrible feeling. However, I’m sure most of these players thought of that before accepting their invite.

Guys like Rueben Randle and Coby Fleener could slip into the 2nd round. Either way, being invited to the draft is an honor, and I congratulate them all.
