The NFL Draft is a yearly venture where the cream of the college football crop are systematically selected by professional NFL teams. Drafting order is based on the football team's prior year standings, with the teams that faired poorest drafting first. It is possible to trade away draft choices to other teams.
ESPN has been largely responsible for the increasing popularity of this event, because they own the rights to televise it.
