The NFL Draft is coming to you LIVE from the Windy City!  31 fan bases and some deflated Pats supporters will be dialed in to the dueling ESPN/NFL Network broadcasts in giddy anticipation (Titans fans), West Coast ennui (Rams "fans"), weary resignation (Browns fans) and white-knuckled terror (Cowboys fans).

If Chris Berman makes your gorge rise and Mike Mayock's three-piece suits are a tad fashion-forward for your tastes, never fear.  Eschew the networks and keep it here for wall-to-wall coverage and analysis of every pick.

We're especially excited to announce that two longtime friends of the Carnival, Hall of Famers Emmitt Smith* and Michael Irvin**, will be joining us throughout tonight's extravaganza to share their unique perspectives.

Here we go.

* Not really.

** Also not really.
