Hundreds of the finest college football players around will hope to be snapped up to the professional league by one of the 32 franchises across the US.
Excitement has hit fever pitch with mock drafts being furiously assembled, tweaked, overhauled and rubbished.
It's an event that causes great intrigue in the UK due to the fact that the format rarely ever features in British sport, but it is one of the hottest nights in the US calendar.
It may be a late night for UK fans, but watching the first few picks fall into their new teams is always a fascinating spectacle, especially this year with several quarterbacks in the mix to be No.1 overall.
