Imagine this. You've been playing football for years, dreaming of going pro, and then it happens. Life as you know it changes with a phone call. I just thrill. I'm ready to go. This is Keegan Michael Key, and welcome to Draft It. This podcast series follows eight players as they enter the NFL Draft. This is their real life as it unfolds in real time, and each player tells his own story unfiltered. I'm not a first rounder. I'm not even the top three rounder. We hear exclusive moments
in the lives of the athletes. They're personal and professional relationships. Most importantly, we share in the moment when all their hard work and sacrifice does or does not pay off. This is something I've been dreaming and round I was supposed to go high. I didn't get drafted. I set there for seven round as if the stakes weren't high enough, millions of dollars weren't on the line. These stories are
captured during an unprecedented time COVID quarantine. Nothing like this has ever happened in NFL history, and this year's draft was watched by an astonishing eighty million people. That's more than the population of Canada. Greece and Peru combined. Like many of you, I grew up loving football. Football is generational, It connects us. There's always been a mystique to drafting, but in drafting, we go behind the scenes before, during, and after one of the biggest days of their lives
and we relive every detail from the players perspective. Actually started to cry like I was crying because I felt like I did something wrong. Please join me on the first step in their journey to greatness. Listen to Drafted on the I Heart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
