It was in my hometown last year, KC. If you google the pictures you can see the insane amount of people there. Probably around 150,000 on day one. Detroit looked at us and said, hold my beer. You really showed up and showed out. Great time to be a Lions fan. Congrats from a Chiefs diehard.
Thank you I'm just glad my city is getting the positive recognition it deserves, Detroit is a great place and is so rich in the history of our country! Congrats to you and your Chiefs success, was cheering for them in the Super Bowl and I'm also a 92%er!
@@GatBlackistanI’m glad they chose downtown and not the stadium section. This way everyone that watched can see Detroit is actually beautiful. It’s not a crime riddled hell hole the news portrays it to be. Was nice to set the record of over 700k between all 3 nights
This skipped a lot of picks, the biggest shock of the Draft was definitely my Falcons taking Michael Penix Jr. at 8, despite us just having signed Kirk Cousins to a 100 mil guaranteed deal. I thought for sure we'd go edge rusher or wide receiver. It's a really controversial pick.
So you know, Quinyon Mitchell is beyond thrilled to be a Philadelphia Eagle. His defensive idol, Darius Slay, is an Eagle so they will be teammates. The thing with Quinyon is he a serious young man, loyal and a man of high character. He is not a beat-your-chest type of player but was the highest rated cornerback in the draft and came from a small school. The fact that he fell to Philly at #22 is because the first 14 teams went offense in the draft (a record). We Philly fans are also beyond thrilled to have him!! Go Eagles!
Great kid, great players. But Terrion Arnold was the top-rated CB by almost everyone. Still, it is a great pick for the Eagles--and he will be a great cover guy.
@@gregcable3250 Aside from Daniel Jeremiah, I'd say a strong majority had Mitchell rated higher. Pre-combine/Senior Bowl was a different story, but once he showed out at both I think he was pretty universally viewed as the best outside corner. Also says something that PHI took him 1st...their board usually holds up pretty well.
...that said, if my Ravens can get Nate Wiggins to add 10-15lbs he'll be right there in that conversation as well. Both Quinyon and Terrion were absolute steals though. Then PHI adding DeJean on top of Mitchell...not even fair.
Last year's draft was in Kansas City. This year is in Detroit. Sounds like they're having record attendance. Eminem and a whole bunch of Hall of Fame players opened it up.
Quinyon Mitchell wasn't pissed to be an eagle, his college and Eagles have connection between their coaches and even the scheme. He was most likely pissed overall just for falling outta top 15 let alone to 22, a lot of money lost from that alone.
Something that might be worth watching is the vid they put out of each pick getting the call from the GM/coach when they get picked. The emotion is a lot more raw and less tempered.
It's awesome to see you guys get into so many aspects of the NFL. I know Daz has been a fan for a while, but it's surprising how much Aidan has picked up just since this channel started. Seems like he's more on top of the draft than all the lifelong Patriots fans I grew up around. If you guys want a couple channels to watch I'd recommend Flemlo Raps who makes great content covering players upbringing/stories (recent Mike Evans one was great), and (biasly) Ravens Wired... it's a Hard Knocks-style show covering game week and mic'd up in game moments for the Ravens. Best social media team in the league, IMO.
Eminem opened up the draft along with a fly over of a couple A10 warthogs, it was awesome! Super cool event. There were more people that were attempting to get into the park but it was shutoff due to capacity.
You should really check out the "Rookies Get the Call from their New Team!" video the NFL just posted its really good for seeing the teams and players reactions on the calls.
Last year’s draft was held in Cleveland and was presented similarly. Almost 300k people of I’m not mistaken was out there in Detroit last night. Congratulations to all of the draftees over the weekend.
They only skipped the picks of people who had their own draft party. The draft usually sends out about 20 invites and sometimes prospects accept them and sometimes they dont. I think i would prefer a party at my house with my whole family but walking on stage and taking the jersey from roger goodell is also probably a lot of young kids dreams. Either way this video was of the people who accepted invites and got drafted in-person.
The draft used to be held in NYC every year, but the past few years they have had it in other cities. Detroit, KC, and Nashville have had the past three. Next year it will be in Green Bay.
You guys should be watching the player highlights that are featured at the draft and the analysis on the selection. That is where the rubber meets the road (that which matters is discussed), so to speak. Further, this is not the entire first round. There are a lot of draft picks missing.
Seriously crossing my fingers, since while my dad's school had a top five pick this year (Joe Alt going to the Chargers, which makes a lot of sense to me), my _pro_ team traded completely out of the first round this year. I guess it could help get more people, in general, for this season, with the crazy cap situation that the Bills have, but ... I am seriously concerned that the Bills feel like they have three slot receivers at the top of the depth chart.
The cut a few people because they players that was selected were at the event. I guess they only wanted to show the players at the event instead of everybody. You can see live conference of when the players not there are selected.
As a Bears fan I am gonna be honest, I have no hope in the Quarterbacks we draft until they show me they are gonna be good. I have had too much heartbreak. I do love Odunze though, and with him plus DJ Moore, plus Keenan Allen we have one of the best WR rooms in the league. I just hope they will all be utilized right.
Also a Bears fan, they have a pattern of cutting players/coaches too soon so we can watch them excel with other teams, unfortunately 😞. Great draft picks in the 1st round imo. We shall see 🤞🏼
As a Bears fan, we could anything we can get. Another 20 draft picks would be nice, but hopefully the last few awful years to get this draft will be worth it.
The most confusing pick was Michael penix to the Atlanta falcons because the Atlanta falcons dished out a lot of money to Kirk cousins lol.. And yeah these giraffes be getting packed everybody be going to these shows just as much as a regular game lol hell the WNBA draft 20,000 people bought tickets just to the Indiana fever arena to watch the draft 😅
@@PHXNKVHXLIC glad to hear it.. I know he's an absolute monster.. but his time at Alabama was on the right side and the Titans have a big need for a Left Tackle
Heisman winners don’t always get drafted high or work out. Atlanta made the most questionable pick picking a QB with the 8th pick after giving Kirk Cousins $190 M. The event was held in Detroit which is why they booed Marvin Harrison Jr (Ohio State). I wanna say over 250K people showed up
Pro football is king in the USA. Anyone who tells you that college football is bigger than pro football, doesn't have a pro team anywhere nearby or worth seeing. College is the minor leagues, boys becoming men. These are men, the best. College football is a great party and all that, but pro football is serious sport stuff. 25 million people in the US watched the college national championship. 124 million in the US watched the Super Bowl. College teams get great local support, but no one in Pennsylvania gives a s**t about Alabama football and vice versa with Alabama and Penn State. But the NFL is a national league and virtually all games are consequential.
@@riccorich Technically bigger? On what metric? They get more attendance at the big stadium schools, but the interest is almost completely localized. College football is really a lot of little local football events and regional leagues. The NFL is Nationwide. As I said, no one in Pittsburgh gives a s**t about what Tennessee Vols do--hell, no one in Kentucky does--and vice versa. It is a completely localized phenomenon that is mainly supported by a captive constantly rotating audience of 18-22 year-olds (and alumni) who want to party on the weekends, and the game is a big part of that. They want their team to win, but the winning is almost secondary for many of those "fans". I went to a major school and the male students were quite interested in the win, but if you lost, well, it was still a good tailgate party and you were able to eat and get buzzed. The women students barely cared at all (or even knew much about the game/rules)--they were (with some exceptions) almost completely there for the social aspects--seeing, being seen, drinking, eating, talking, etc. NFL fans care about nearly all of the games each week since your team can be affected by them. It is not even close. Again, 25 million viewers for the Michigan-Somebody national Championship game v 125 million for the Super Bowl.
College football is the minor leagues.I beg to differ they're buddy row! There wouldn't even be an N f l draft if it Wasn't for college football! Just because your college football team sucks doesn't mean you have to ruin it for the rest of us. I would suggest that you should have kept that Comment to yourself! Have a little bit more respect for the men that are going To be playing in this league. Pro football is crap It's going to woke. And it's losing membership viewers Everyday It continues with its wokenes.
If that's what makes you "embarrassed and sad" for your country, you must live with earplugs and a blindfold on every day. Grow up and focus on things that actually matter and affect you.
They know how to dress for the occasion, I’m sure. It’s the NFL, they’re allowed to be as flashy as they want. They’re not interviewing for a stock trader position. If I could land a well paying gig where I could dress as I please, I’d be all over it. There are many other things to truly be sad about in this world.
