If this is the first time you remember hearing about the NFL’s supplemental draft, don’t worry.
This is the most buzz I’ve seen around the event in my lifetime. As the NFL Draft has grown in popularity, coverage of draft prospects has obviously increased as well. Anything involving the next generation of NFL talent is getting more and more attention.
In the rare instance that a legitimate prospect has their circumstances change between the deadline to enter the traditional April selection meeting and training camp, players can enter the supplemental draft. This year, there’s a good chance that we’ll see multiple players selected for the first time since 2010.
