While over two hundred players will drafted, only a handful of players will be in attendance at the NFL Draft in Chicago.

The NFL Draft has moved out of New York City for the first time since the late 60s, taking the show to Chicago, Illinois. While the location is different, the draft itself is going to be relatively the same.

They have added a Draft Town for fans to spend their time at in downtown Chicago.

And just like we’re accustomed to seeing at the NFL Draft in New York during the first rounds, players will be in attendance waiting to hear their name called. Then they get to go across the stage, hug Roger Goodell and hold up a generic jersey that shows the team had little idea who they’d be taking with that pick.

There are some notable omissions from the list of players attending, which you can see in its entirety below. Two Heisman Trophy winners are in this draft and neither one will be present as Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota will stay at home.

Below is a full list of the players scheduled to attend the draft in Chicago on Thursday night.
