Kansas City Chiefs Fans Were Really Excited About Drafting OT Eric Fisher (GIF)
The first round of the 2013 NFL Draft didn’t feature a lot of “sexy” picks.

Robert Griffin III Looked Pretty Good In His Professional Debut Last Night (Video)
The Washington Redskins haven’t had too much luck finding a franchise quarterback over the last, oh, 20 years.

To myself and 99.99% of the world’s population, “Mr. Irrelevant” is exactly what his name says he is. Irrelevant!

Roger Goodell Gets Booed At Draft, Silences Crowd With Moment Of Silence (Video)
I always thought that the players were at a disadvantage against NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and the owners during this lockout.

The Pouncey Brothers Share A Kiss On Draft Day (Video)
It is the type of celebration that you might expect to see from a couple of soccer players following a victory, but two giant offensive linemen sharing a kiss after one is drafted?

And the award for most awkward NFL Draft Day moment goes too….LeGarrette Blount, for his nationally televised nap-time. I guess he is only human.
