AAPI Prospects in the 2026 NFL Draft
The 2026 NFL Draft class features 7 AAPI prospects including 4 projected first-rounders — Francis Mauigoa, Spencer Fano, Makai Lemon, and Olaivavega Ioane. Utah alone has three AAPI prospects (Spencer Fano, Caleb Lomu, and Logan Fano), making it the most represented program. The Fano brothers could become one of the rare sibling duos entering the same draft class.
Polynesian players continue to dominate offensive line positions, with Mauigoa and both Fanos projected as first- or second-round picks. Makai Lemon (Hawaiian heritage) represents the expanding AAPI presence at skill positions as the 2025 Biletnikoff Award winner.
