Rams fan shows streamed noon–7 PM ET

Day 3 of the 2026 National Football League Draft turned into a long local-TV window, with teams filling Saturday coverage gaps through their own live shows. (therams.com) (patriots.com) The Los Angeles Rams told fans the draft’s final four rounds would start at 9 a.m. Pacific on Saturday, April 25, with national coverage on NFL Network, ABC, ESPN and ESPN Deportes. The club also said the draft would stream live and on-demand on NFL+, Disney+ and Hulu for subscribers. (therams.com) (espnpressroom.com) New England scheduled a special Patriots Unfiltered draft show from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern, billed as live coverage from Gillette Stadium with calls, emails and reaction to the club’s picks. The team later posted a replay labeled “Day Three NFL Draft Coverage.” (patriots.com 1) (patriots.com 2) The broader television setup was bigger than in past years because Disney’s 2026 rights package added new streaming distribution. ESPN and The Walt Disney Company said this year’s draft would be available across ESPN, ABC, NFL Network, the ESPN App, ESPN Radio, ESPN Deportes, Disney+ and Hulu. (espnpressroom.com) (thewaltdisneycompany.com) ABC said it simulcast ESPN’s Day 3 coverage on Saturday, April 25, from Pittsburgh. ESPN Deportes also carried the draft in Spanish, and ESPN Deportes’ own guide said every Saturday selection could be watched live there and on Disney+. (abc.com) (espndeportes.espn.com) For the Rams, the team-site draft hub shifted quickly from watch information to post-pick programming once selections were in. By Sunday, the page was promoting a Rams Post-Draft Show with coach Sean McVay joining J.B. Long and D’Marco Farr to review the class. (therams.com) The Rams also paired the remote coverage with an in-person event at Hollywood Park next to SoFi Stadium. Their Block Party page said fans could watch the draft live on site from Thursday, April 23, through Saturday, April 25, while the ticketed Fan Fair ran alongside the free-access event area. (therams.com) Saturday’s national telecast still started at noon Eastern, but the team-run streams gave clubs room for a more partisan format than the network shows. The Patriots pitch centered on direct fan questions from Gillette Stadium, while the Rams focused on club-branded draft and post-draft programming. (usatoday.com) (patriots.com) That made Day 3 less about one national broadcast and more about stacked layers of coverage, from ABC’s simulcast to Spanish-language telecasts to team-specific shows built around late-round picks.
