Most recently, April's draft was in Green Bay.

The 2025 edition is heading to Pittsburgh.

And soon enough, the draft is coming.

It'll give Commanders fans the opportunity to cheer for the players that'll join franchise QB Jayden Daniels in the task of chasing a Super Bowl. And it'll happen at one of the nation's most notable locations.
