NFL Draft Goes Prime Time in 2010

As has been rumored for some time now, the NFL is moving the NFL Draft to a three-day, Thursday-Saturday evening event starting in 2010. Round One will be held on Thursday beginning at 7:30pm; Rounds 2-3 will be held on Friday starting at 6:30pm, and the final rounds 4-7 will be held Saturday starting at 10am.

ESPN and the NFL Network will continue to provide television coverage for the event. The 2010 NFL Draft is scheduled for April 22-24.

What do you think of the move, Broncos fans? Personally, I hate it. The draft drags on enough already, not to mention that the Thursday event will be cutting it close for the Pacific time zone fans getting off work later.
