What is the story about?
The NFL Draft is finally here. While Cincinnati Bengals fans may need to wait until the second day to make their first selection after trading the 10th overall selection for New York Giants defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, it is still one of the most exciting times of the NFL offseason.
It also helps that the NFL reduced the time for first-round selections down to 10 minutes this year. That should keep things moving at a decent pace.
