History of the NFL Draft
The NFL Draft has a storied history dating back to its inception in 1936. Initially held at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Philadelphia, the draft was a low-key affair compared to the grand spectacle it has become today.
Over the decades, the event has evolved into a multi-day extravaganza, with millions tuning in to see which college stars will join the professional ranks. Hosting the draft in various cities, including New York, Chicago, and most recently, Detroit, has helped broaden the event’s appeal and engage a wider audience.
Green Bay’s selection as the 2025 host city continues this tradition of diverse locations, promising to deliver a memorable experience for fans and participants. The draft’s move to different cities has allowed the NFL to showcase its broad national appeal and deep connections with local communities.
