Draftmas in July: Sam Beal

Who would’ve thought there would be legitimate NFL draft prospects to discuss for the 2018 NFL Supplemental Draft?

This kind of opportunity isn’t quite an eclipse. It follows closer to an Olympic or World Cup timeline: every four years there’s something worth talking about.

This year could be the first time since 2010 that multiple players are selected in the supplemental draft. There hasn’t been this much buzz since 2012, when wide receiver Josh Gordon was selected with a second-round bid by the Cleveland Browns.

The reason for the buzz stems from three potentially draftable prospects in this year’s class: cornerbacks Sam Beal and Adonis Alexander, and safety Brandon Bryant.
