Every April, the National Football League’s (NFL) 32 teams gather for the Draft – the process of choosing the top college talents who are eligible to turn professional. Over three days, and seven rounds, each team gets a fixed time in which to pick, with last year’s worst team choosing first, then the next worst team, and so on. The event is really just a business meeting. No sport is played.
