		</div><p>The NFL has named 58 players who will take part in next month’s draft, which will be conducted remotely due to the coronavirus outbreak.</p>
<p>The league announced on Monday it would continue with its <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.nfl.com/draft/2019/mock-drafts">April 23-25 draft</a></span> in a “fully virtual” manner, via phone and internet.</p>
<p>This replaces the planned annual physical gathering to allocate new players through the league, a coveted event which this year was to be held in Las Vegas before Covid-19 lockdowns forced a change of plan.</p>
<p>While full details of how the draft will proceed are yet to be announced, it is understood it will be headquartered in a studio, with the NFL’s 32 teams participating remotely from their home cities.</p>

<p>The NFL on Thursday published on its website the list of players who will take part.</p>
<p>The prospects are headed by college football’s hottest commodity in Louisiana State University (LSU) quarterback Joe Burrow – winner of the Heisman Trophy last season for best in the competition – and Ohio State edge rusher Chase Young.</p>
<p>The Cincinatti Bengals will have first draft pick, ahead of the Washington Redskins, Detroit Lions, New York Giants and the Miami Dolphins.</p>
<p>LSU will have the strongest representation in the draft with eight players, ahead of the University of Alabama’s seven.</p>
<p>The draft will also double as a telethon to raise money to fight the coronavirus crisis, the NFL has said.</p>
