Hurry up NFL Draft!

By John Maczko Mar 27, 2026 | 8:00 AM

As we get closer and closer to the upcoming NFL Draft, one thing is apparently clear.  It needs to hurry up and get here.  I’m a big fan of the draft and I watch it every year.  The only problem I have with it is what happens in the final few weeks leading up to the actual event.  Sports fans are stuck listening to sports reporters, NFL analysts etc., just pulling rumors and opinions out of thin air.  The teams are trying to trick each other so they leak out so much false information it’s ridiculous.  All this false info gets picked up on TV and radio and online and then things that are far from the truth are turned into things that are supposedly true, when in reality they aren’t.  The Super Bowl ended in February and now it seems as though all the hot takes about all the NFL teams have run out and they are looking for anything to get fans to pay attention.  So here comes all the analysts and experts just making things up to get views and click and you to pay attention to them.  By the time you get to the actually draft, 95 percent of what you heard in the final weeks before it are false.  Hurry up and get here so I can avoid all this nonsense and actually enjoy the real draft with the real picks.
