Man, where do I even start with this one? Okay, so picture this: the NFL draft is creeping up on us like a cat ready to pounce on, I dunno, some cool toy mice or something. In two weeks, Green Bay’s gonna be packed with some seriously big names. Or at least that’s what the NFL told us on Monday. And guess who’s leading the charge? Cam Ward, Miami’s golden boy QB who’s apparently the Harry Potter of football—everyone’s eyes are on him for the top spot. He’s one of those 17 lucky ducks heading to the draft spectacle.
Now, let’s see who else is tagging along. We got two more quarterbacks—there’s this dude Jaxson Dart from Ole Miss, and then Jalen Milroe from Alabama. But hey, where’s Shedeur Sanders? I mean, everyone kinda expected him to be second in line behind Cam, but yeah, no Dante’s Peak-style eruption from him this time. No show. Funny thing though? His buddy Travis Hunter, who’s like a star doing double duty on the field, is gonna be there. Guess Shedeur’s letting him hold down the fort. Person-wise, other player peeps joining include Matthew Golden from Texas and Tetairoa McMillan from Arizona.
There’s this editor’s list obsession too, blah blah—yep, you see that, keep rolling your eyes ‘cause why not? Anyway, other spotlight magnets include Penn State’s Abdul Carter—they say he’s good at knocking people down or something. Ashton Jeanty from Boise State, who runs faster than my friend’s cat chasing a laser dot, and a handful more, those fab Top 10 people.
Oh, heads up—Alabama’s got a triple threat thing going on. Milroe’s gonna be waving alongside guard Tyler Booker and linebacker Jihaad Campbell. Georgia and Michigan aren’t slacking either, bringing their duos to the party. You got Ohio State’s anchor man Josh Simmons and Texas A&M’s Shemar Stewart too, all getting ready to strut their stuff.
Clear your calendar or at least pretend to for April 24 when this kicks off. The first round’s at 8 p.m. and, well, you know how drafts go—by April 26, it’s gonna be this whirlwind until nobody remembers how it started. Chaos? Yeah, let’s go with that.
