NFL Draft 2017: Start Time, TV Schedule, Live Online Streaming, Picks, Order, and More

Everything you need to know about the 2017 NFL Draft.

By Brandon Lee Gowton@BrandonGowton Apr 27, 2017, 8:11am EDT

The 2017 NFL Draft is FINALLY here. The waiting is over. The action starts tonight, April 27, at 8:00 PM ET. As always, it'll be interesting to see how this year's big event plays out.

Thursday night features the first round only. The second and third rounds will take place on Friday night. Rounds four through seven take place on Saturday. Undrafted free agency begins as soon as the draft is over.

The draft is scheduled to be televised on ESPN/ESPN2 and NFL Network. NFL draft analysts Mel Kiper Jr./Todd McShay (ESPN) and Mike Mayock (NFLN) anxiously await your choice. Or you could get two screens and go with both.

Or watch neither because Bleeding Green Nation will be broadcasting live from the 2017 NFL Draft in Philadelphia. Check out BGN’s official Facebook page for complete on-the-scene coverage.

Last year, we knew who the top two picks were going to be before the draft even started: Jared Goff and Carson Wentz. This year, it’s not so clear. Myles Garrett has long been projected to be the No. 1 pick but there’s been some talk about the Browns selecting Mitch Trubisky.

This draft potentially figures to be one of the most unpredictable ones in recent history. No one seems to have a great feel what’s going to happen for certain. The drama is high and you won’t want to miss it. Stay tuned for complete coverage here at BGN.

NFL Draft Party

Thursday April 27th - Round 1

Bud Light is rolling out the red carpet for us and is inviting EVERYONE to come join BGN at the Bud Light Tavern AT THE NFL DRAFT. That is not a misprint. We will be broadcasting live at 7:45 PM ET until round 1 ends or whenever they run out of beer. Draft Town is 100% free to get in and open to the public. As a bonus we will be giving away a pair of VIP tickets for Day 2 of the draft which includes entrance into the NFL Draft Auditorium. Come meet up with fellow BGNers, the BGN Radio crew and Eagles fans from all over the place! It's also another great opportunity to jump on the podcast as we broadcast live to all of BGN land. We'll be right next to 94WIP as well so you can hang with Ike Reese, Jamaal Jackson, Glen Macnow and a bunch of other special guests!

The good news is it will be open to the public for Day 2 and Day 3 as well, so let us know if you're around and we are happy to take beer breaks with you guys! We'll be broadcasting everyday on Radio Row and it's not too far away from the tavern.
