The 71st annual NFL Draft will be held in New York City on April 29-30, 2006. Rounds 1-3 will begin at 11 a.m. CST, Saturday April 29th. Rounds 4-7 will follow on Sunday, April 30th, starting at 10 a.m. CST.
NFL.com posted this assessment of the OU Pro Day:
"Oklahoma is a favorite of NFL scouts. There were 26 teams represented and a total of 75 scouts. Jerry Schmidt, the Sooners' Director of Sports Enhancement, did a good job organizing everything. The day started at 8:30 with a big meeting to learn about the players. The draft prospects ran in their old facility, which is very fast, but did all the new drills in their new facility. After the position drills, there was a big barbecue lunch."
