Fans will finally get some sports tonight, but just virtually. The NFL draft begins tonight with the Bengals on the clock with the first overall pick. The draft will span three days, with the first round on Thursday, starting at 8:00 p.m., rounds 2-3 on Friday at 7:00 p.m., and the final four round starting at noon on Saturday.
The ‘Noles likely won’t have any first rounders, but star RB Cam Akers is expected to come off the board in day two. Akers’ combination of burst and power projects him as a starter on Sunday’s, but his pass protection could hinder his draft status.
