The college football season is complete, and the NFL campaign is nearly in the books, meaning draft talk is right around the corner.
East-West Shrine Game 2014: Time, TV schedule and more
With the offseason already here for most teams, many front offices and fans are ready for the draft process to begin.


Much of the draft hype won’t start in full force until the combine, which takes place in late February at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, but the ball starts rolling on Saturday when the East-West Shrine Game kicks off at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Fla.
This year will be the 89th edition of the East-West Shrine Game, having started almost a century ago at Ewing Field in San Francisco, per the official website. The contest always features NFL-ready talent, evidenced by last season when more than 100 players from last year’s game signed with an NFL team.
Seventy-one men who played in the East-West Shrine Game have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, including legends such as John Elway. Tom Brady and Brett Favre also participated in the game when they were coming out of college.
