For the first time, the NFL draft is in Music City tonight. Who will go No. 1?
For the first time, the NFL draft is in Music City, and even in the days leading up to Thursday night’s opening round, Broadway has been buzzing.
"This weekend, Nashville, Tennessee, is, in fact, Football City," declared Mayor David Briley. "This wouldn’t be happening if the league and team had not seen what we already knew about the city of Nashville." Rain, however, is in the forecast for Thursday night, something that didn’t plague Chicago, Philadelphia and Dallas in the last four years as the draft has become a travelling circus. That could put a damper on outdoor festivities, though it’s unlikely to affect the business in the restaurants and bars downtown. Might even help.
