The first round of the 2017 NFL Draft takes place on April 27, providing an outpost in the barren wasteland of a football-free spring. It’s a long three days of drafting, and we’ll be there live throughout the first night to help you get through it.
Watch the 2017 SB Nation NFL Draft Party live
Join the SB Nation staff as we break down the first round’s top picks live through the draft.
Several questions will need answers after 32 selections and a bevy of trades pair the NCAA’s top athletes with new homes. Fortunately, SB Nation’s got experts on hand to address every single one. Hosts Dan Rubenstein, Matt Ufford, and Elena Bergeron will be live Thursday, April 28, to tackle everything from Cleveland’s latest efforts to poison the job market for young professionals to the Falcons blowing a 28-3 lead in the Super Bowl.
The hosts and a collection of special guests will be on the spot to grade picks, assess futures, and ... look, the draft is long — we’re gonna play games. They’ll be broadcasting at 8 p.m. ET, right at the start of the first round, to give up real-time analysis and eat snacks.
This year’s draft promises to be an exciting one, with no real consensus on top picks beside Myles Garrett at No. 1. Will the Texans prove they’ve learned nothing from Brock Osweiler by trading up in the draft to overpay for a passer in a weak class of quarterbacks? How many Oreos can you eat in a minute? And is it possible to run a 40 blindfolded while being chased by attack dogs?
