2021 NFL Draft: First Round Live Thread

The 2021 NFL Draft finally kicks off this evening with only the first round being covered and beginning at 8:00 PM EST and running to around 11:30 PM EST or so. The draft will then pick up again tomorrow evening at 7:00 PM EST, covering the second and third rounds. The draft will wrap up on Saturday afternoon at Noon EST covering the fourth through the seventh round. Unlike last year's draft that was a virtual event due to the Covid situation, this year's draft will be more of an in-person event as in the past. The in-person event will also include fans as in years past so we will still have the opportunity to listen to the Jets and Eagles fans boo whoever their franchise drafts.
