You've spend countless hours training to be an American football machine and all the blood, sweat and tears are about to pay off with a top selection in the NFL Draft — and its accompanying hefty contract. All you need now is the perfect soundtrack for the prefect moment.
This year, for the first time ever, 30 picks in the NFL Draft will get to choose their own walk-out music to blare at Radio City Music Hall while they take the stage, don the hat of their new team and shake hands with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.
NFL Network and ESPN will play natural sounds as picks take the stage, but in the background you should be able to hear the player-selected tracks (radio-versions only, of course) that Jadeveon Clowney, Johnny Manziel and others hand select. Thirty players the NFL invited to New York City for the draft will get to play DJ and pick their tracks. The 2014 NFL Draft's first round is on Thursday.
Brian McCarthy, the NFL's vice president of communications, says the new move came about after soliciting feedback from players at previous drafts on how to make the the big day more fun.
"We’ve always had music for each player selected but it’s been more city-oriented," McCarthy told Mashable in an email. "We ask the prospects we have in NYC each year for ways to improve their overall experience."
So the question becomes: Do you go with "C.R.E.A.M." from the Wu-Tang Clan? Or what about "All I Do Is Win" from DJ Khaled? Then again, maybe BG's "Bling Bling" is the most appropriate choice.
