2011 NFL Draft Details
For planning purposes, here’s how the schedule will work for the 2011 NFL Draft at the end of April.
No matter what happens with the labor agreement, there will be a Draft and it will be broadcast on ESPN and the NFL Network. Here are the details:
- Thursday, April 28 – First round will begin at 7 p.m. CDT.
- Friday, April 29 – The second and third rounds will start at 5:30 p.m. CDT.
- Saturday, April30 – Rounds four through seven will start at 11 a.m. CDT.
I have to share my displeasure with how NFL Network covers the draft rounds 3 – 7. I’ve put up with this nonsence for 3 years now, and it’s time to VENT. I like to hear who’s picking, and who’s being picked – yea I want to hear about what kind of player they are and yada, yada, ya. I just get fed up with missing so much of the action because the boys in the booth are spending so much time trying to show how much they know about football. When the Chiefs made that big move to get Moeaki in the 3rd round, we didn’t hear about it until the 4th round was under way – and very little was said. Come on, it’s live coverage! COVER IT! Thank you.
