The Draft: A Year Inside the NFL's Search for Talent
$14.95
I liked the book okay. It painted a somewhat realistic scenario of what goes on behind closed doors at a NFL franchise but not completely realistic based on what's been going on in the actual league and the trading values of picks. I thought the author took more than his fair share of latitude in painting a few of the trade scenarios but the story seemed to work and was an entertaining read. Compare this book to John Feinstein's excellent "Next Man Up" is a study in fiction vs fact. Both are entertaining to read and I guess it depends on what one prefers in that sometimes reality is more fascinating than fiction.

I think the author could have done more in-depth research and fleshed out the story more than he did. It's almost a novel where there was a looming deadline and he was forced to fast track the story to get it done in time. All in all, not bad.
