Description
A behind-the-scenes look into the inner workings of the NFL Draft, its history, and the stories of those whose lives are changed in a single night.
Since moving to primetime television in 2010, the NFL Draft is one of the biggest events in professional sports. In fact, this event’s ratings have now eclipsed many professional sporting events! But what goes on behind the scenes? How do those youngsters looking to make a name for themselves prepare? What goes on in each team’s War Room/
Starting from the beginning, veteran journalist Thomas George shares the history of the NFL Draft—how scouting, preparation, and the event as a whole has evolved into one of the most talked-about sports events in the country.
With interviews with current and former NFL players, coaches, and executives, George humanizes what it’s like for a player waiting for his name to be called, general managers pining over which players to choose, back-room deals between organizations, and everything that goes along with it.
For the first time, readers will have the curtain pulled back for a behind-the-scenes view of all the preparation and steps that come before, during, and after the draft. Those who enjoy learning about the growth of the NFL, how the draft went from a weekend show to primetime, and all the ins and out will appreciate the diligence and insight that is brought to the forefront of one of the most talked-about events in American sports today.
As legendary sportscaster Chris Berman said in the film Draft Day: “Thirty-two teams, seven rounds, 224 young men who, today, are about to become players in the National Football League. A day where lives are changed. fates are decided, dynasties are born, and the clock is always ticking. Of course, I’m talking about... Draft Day.”
