NFL Draft - The Football Season is getting closer

The NFL draft is finally over and all the picks have been made.  They really have turned the NFL Draft into multi-day event.  It takes over the whole weekend.


The first day of the draft is where all the excitement is.  Who is going to be the first pick keeps everybody wondering.  This year there was no drama around the first draft pick. The Colts knew they were drafting Andrew Luck a long time ago and everybody else knew it too.  


After the first day of picks, the draft really starts to heat up.  I like the fact that they reduce the amount of time for picks.  The draft is still exciting after the first day because you always have an opportunity for a trade of picks. 


The great thing about the web is that once a pick is made, you can immediately go over to youtube and see highlights of the latest draft pick.  Nobody really watches all the college football games and those youtube highlights give you a glimpse of what you can expect from the newly drafted player.  


Now that the draft is over, you can really feel like a new football season is getting started.  New NFL Jerseys with the fresh draft picks will be something to lookout for.   


How did your team do in the draft?  I think the 49ers did okay.  They went for offensive speed and offensive linemen.  LeMichael James should be a great addition to the 49ers backfield.  Can't wait for this season to get started.
