NFL Draft 2019: How to watch on TV, stream event online
By Jason Parker
The NFL Draft is just hours away from getting underway in Nashville, and here is the best way to catch up on all the action throughout the event.
In just about four hours, 32 players will hear their names being called as first round selections in the 2019 player selection meeting – more commonly known to the millions of people watching across the world as the 2019 NFL Draft, starting with the Arizona Cardinals picking first overall and the New England Patriots picking 32nd overall.
If you are a fan of FSU football, you would have known by now that the names of players like Brian Burns – who shined as a defensive end for the Seminoles during a three season period – will be among those called to the stage starting at 8 p.m. tonight.
As for the rest of the league and the players who will be selected, the fun begins tonight from Nashville, Tennessee – and here’s a look at who will be broadcasting the event and what other things you need to know for the coming days of the 2019 NFL Draft.

What time does the 2019 NFL Draft start?
The 2019 NFL Draft starts just after 8 p.m. tonight as the city of Nashville host the event for the first time during the modern era. The Arizona Cardinals hold the first pick and the final pick – as the 254th pick overall is known as Mr. Irrelevant.
What channels do you watch for the 2019 NFL Draft?
All of the seven rounds during the three day period – with the first round on Thursday and the fourth through seven rounds coming on Saturday – will be broadcast on ESPN and the NFL Network with ABC providing special coverage of the draft presenting a different angle.
Who has the most and who has the fewest selections in the 2019 NFL Draft?
The New England Patriots, which won Super Bowl LIII in a snooze fest against the Los Angeles Rams, are tied with the New York Giants for having the most picks as each team has 12 selections this year. On the flip side, the Seattle Seahawks and Chicago Bears are tied for the fewest number of picks as each one has just five picks this coming weekend.
Can FSU football star Brian Burns end up staying in the state of Florida after the 2019 NFL Draft?
For the seventh time in the last eight years, one of the three teams from the state of Florida will have a chance to select Burns in the top five as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have the fifth pick in the first round.
Do any other FSU football stars have a shot of being taken in the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft?
Anything is possible – well, almost anything as the judgments entering the first round show Burns being the only former Seminoles to even think about making it to Nashville and the chance of being taken first overall.
Entering the week, there is a decent chance that Burns could be the only former Nole who hears his name being called this weekend – so pay attention to the first round, because it might be the only time you hear Florida State at all this weekend.
