Two first-round picks. One statement night. Utah made history at the 2026 NFL Draft as Spencer Fano and Caleb Lomu both went in the first round — the first time the program has ever done it. In this episode, we celebrate the accomplishment for both. Then talk through what each landing spot means, why Fano is ready to contribute immediately, how Lomu fits as a high-upside investment, and what this moment says about Utah’s offensive line development model moving forward.
