The league in a statement says the draft averaged of 6.1 million viewers across all digital platforms, including the NFL Network, ESPN, ESPN2 and ABC, which broadcast the three-day event.
Combined, the telecasts combined to reach more than 47.5 million viewers, a five percent increase from the previous year.
More than 600,000 people flooded the streets of Nashville, and a Thursday night rainstorm still didn't drive fans away.
"The 2019 NFL Draft was a tremendous continuation of the celebration of the NFL's 100th season and an opportunity to welcome the next generation of stars," said NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
