NFL Draft weekend is April 25-26, and there will once again be plenty of hype and more in-depth coverage than ever before as teams select their new saviors. You’ll hear more scouting data about players than you ever cared to know. You’ll hear how every pick is great and fills a need. But really, no one can judge in one weekend in April if any of these draft picks are any good. You can’t measure a draft’s success until the season after — or even a few seasons after — the draft. So take what happens on draft day with a grain of salt. And enjoy the Mel Kiper sighting.
ESPN, ESPN2 and NFL Network have live coverage of both draft days, all in high definition. ESPNEWS also has “On the Clock” previews of each team.
