Hard to believe after a 2 month break after the Super Bowl that the 2024 NFL Draft is upon us. This is the unofficial kickoff to the 2024 season. Even though there are no games until September, the NFL will be in the news more and more as the weeks go by. The first round is always a made for tv spectacle, but they have tried to make all 3 days of the draft entertaining. No first round pick for the Browns this year, so they will be sitting out opening night on Thursday. Definitely will be interesting to see what they do with their 6 picks , starting with their second round pick. After the 3 days, every team’s fans are optimistic about what to expect when the season rolls around. Some people could care less about the draft, but I do enjoy watching the first few rounds. You never know who will turn into the next Tom Brady or will be a bust like Brandon Weeden. The NFL knows how to stay in the news. Not long after the draft will be the schedule release and then OTA’s and practice are not to far behind. It will be here before you know it. Interest in this area will increase if the Cavs bomb out of the playoffs again or the Guardians begin to fade. If they do, the NFL will take center stage and not go away until after next year’s Super Bowl.
