NFL Draft Begins Tonight, Has ‘Everything to Prove’

If you’re un-American or have a connection with the “rejected-child aspect of Anglophilia,” you’re all jazz hands right now in anticipation for tomorrow’s Royal Wedding and wondering whether Prince Charles is going to wear his Eichmann or Goebbels uniform to big bro’s big day.

If you pledge your allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, however, you’re giddy like a monkey cowboy right now for tonight’s NFL Draft.

The biggest event in off-season professional football begins tonight, Thursday, April 28 at 8PM ET. The Twitter is already blowing up with fan favorites and predictions and the NFL is keeping score. For instance, in the past five minutes 330 tweets have mentioned Georgia Wide Receiver A.J. Greer and 168 discuss Virginia Tech Running Back Ryan Williams.

If you’re late to the game, didn’t do your homework, but still want a crash course in this year’s First Round prospects so you have something to talk about in your man cave before the team’s announce their selections, Gatorade has just the web series for you (which they’ve disabled embeds on. Who still does that?!? That’s not G, Gatorade. Definitely not G.).

Everything to Prove is a 10-episode non-embeddable web series that follows 14 National Football League hopefuls as they prepare for Draft Day. Highlights include footage from the NFL Combine, scenes from Senior Bowl, and days in the lives of everyday soon to be professional athletes A.J. Greer, JJ. Watt, Cameron Heyward, Jacke Locker, Von Miller, Blaine Gabbert, Kyle Rudolph and more.

If you prefer arguing with your friends over EPAs and other obscure NFL stats to debating the pluses and minuses of afternoon tea vs. high tea, this is one web series with disabled embeds to watch.
