How does NFL draft work?

Answer by  JB28 (285)

In the NFL draft, there are seven rounds, and in each round, each NFL team gets to select a player. As a result, they earn the rights to sign the player. The players typically come from major universities across the nation. High school players are not allowed to sign with an NFL team right out of high school.
