How old do you have to be to be in the NFL?
You cannot declare for the draft unless you are at least 18 years of age. Example of terrible answer^^^^ The user removed my 100% accurate answer for this unsubstantiated answer. Improved answer: As I had originally posted, the NFL's requirement is not age specific. You can only declare for the draft 3 years after you graduate high school. 20 year old Maurice Clarett was denied, while 19 year old Amobi Okoye was accepted.
