NFL Supplemental Draft passes with no one picked according to : ProFootballTalk

Posted by Michael David Smith on July 12, 2017, 1:06 PM EDTThe 2017 NFL Supplemental Draft has come and gone. As expected, no one was picked in this year's Supplemental Draft. In the last five years, only one player — Isaiah Battle of the Rams in 2015 — has been chosen in the Supplemental Draft. The Supplemental Draft used to be a big deal, but that's no longer the case. Only two players, Georgia Military College defensive end Tavares Bingham and Western New Mexico running back Marques Rodgers, were eligible for the Supplemental Draft.




The 2017 NFL supplemental draft is taking place today, at 1. p.m. Every year, the NFL holds a supplemental draft for college players who lose out on playing college football after the NFL draft ends--folks who get suspended, mostly. The supplemental draft then proceeds round by round, with teams saying whether they want to give up their 2018 draft pick in the equivalent round for a player. The supplemental draft works with a bidding system, kind of. In other words: if a team wants a player, they'll have to give up a 2018 draft pick to grab him.
