The NFL Draft 2015 continues on Friday night and will help to form the springboard for the upcoming NFL season. Millions of football fans across the country will be tuning in to watch the draft over the three days in the hope and excitement that their teams can lay some solid foundations for the upcoming season.
The Second Round of the NFL Draft 2015 takes place from the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago and has a start time of 7 p.m. ET on Friday night. The draft can be watched on TV on the ESPN network
Ahead of the First Round, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers held the first overall pick and so the spotlight was very much on them from the start on Thursday night.
The First Round of the Draft always captures the headlines, but a lot of big deals are closed in the following rounds too, and Friday will see Rounds two and three take place, with Rounds four through to seven taking place on Saturday.
NFL fans will notice that a big change this season for the draft is that it will not be taking place from Radio City Music Hall in New York City. The last nine drafts were held at that venue, so it will give a fresh feel to proceedings with the draft taking place elsewhere this year. Not only that, but the draft has always been held in New York City at one venue or another since 1963, so a complete change in cities is a huge change, and a first for more than 50 years.
There was a degree of speculation about how the Buccaneers, the worst team in the NFL in the 2014-2015 season, would use their first overall pick. There was consensus that they would opt for a quarterback, and that proved to be right with Jameis Winston picked and now heading to Tampa Bay for the new season.
Meanwhile, the Tennessee Titans were up second, and as most pundits predicted they opted for Marcus Mariota as the No. 2 pick.
