The NFL draft is underway, with teams gathering in their 'war rooms' to make decisions on player picks and trades. These rooms are essentially conference rooms where teams have spent weeks ranking prospects and weighing trade offers. Former NFL coach Jeff Fisher said there are 'stories, man,' about the draft process. Bill Polian, former general manager of the Indianapolis Colts, described the process as 'collegial and academic,' where teams start with around 500 player cards and narrow it down to about 125 on the front draft board. NBC News has provided extensive coverage, including a mock draft by Ben Kamisar, a national political reporter, and will live-blog the first round. Teams will face unexpected events on draft day despite their planning.
