Who else besides me watches at 16+ hours of the NFL draft?
I also get to know every player drafted in the first couple of rounds. My dolphan friends are amazed when I give them a synopsis of their draft picks.

I know it is not just me. Bills fans are among the most informed in the league.

How about you?

I have to admit it. If I'm home, I generally watch both days, although I channel surf between picks.

I watch the entire first round and then on and off for the rest.

I watch as much as I can, which this year will be less than usual. I have a Saturday business meeting and will likely miss the first three hours. Then Saturday evening I have to conduct a wedding rehearsal, then the wedding on Sunday evening. I catch what I can working around weekend chores on late Saturday and Sunday afternoons. I don't know, maybe I should try and tape the first three hours.

We actually get a group together and go the the ESPN zone in Washington. We watch the entire first round and then back and forth between the draft and hockey. It's my one day a year that I go on a 12 hour drink binge. Then I watch day two from my couch eating greasy foods and drinking coffee.

Hell, 2 years ago when Miami's first pick was in the 3rd round, I watched every second of the NFL Draft..

The NFL Draft, along with the off-season, is probably the best part of football..

Maybe not, opening weekend is the best

I love the draft. I watch all of the first 2-3 rounds, then get whatever I can out of the rest of it, since the family requires my attention too. Anyway, I love the picks, the hype, the footage of these guys playing, and getting to know who the players are before they actually play an NFL down.
