How far has the NFL come with the draft?<\/p>\n

Trades have made the event very interesting. Here’s a quick history from the NFL<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

“This first draft was a far cry from the spectacle fans have come to expect today. Held on Feb. 8, 1936, at Philadelphia\u2019s Ritz-Carlton Hotel, clubs selected from a pool of only 90 players. There were no formal scouting departments, no agents and no 24-hour sports media coverage. The list of eligible players was compiled from newspaper reports, visits to local colleges by team executives, and recommendations to front-office personnel.<\/p>\n

“With the first pick, Bell\u2019s Eagles selected Heisman Trophy winner Jay Berwanger from the University of Chicago. Rather than play pro football, the star halfback opted for a career as a foam rubber salesman. Berwanger\u2019s choice wasn\u2019t unusual \u2014 only 24 of the 81 players chosen in the first draft went on to play in the NFL. Most opted for more secure and stable professions, many of which paid better.”<\/p>\n
