One of the most important and special days for a football player is the day they get drafted.
Children all across the country that fall in love with the game dream of one day hearing their name called.
When that selection happens, the dream becomes a reality and all the hard work put in over the years to make the NFL pays off.
Sure it doesn’t happen for everybody, but, for those individuals fortunate enough to make it the next chapter of their lives begins on Draft Day.
It’s Draft Day!!!! 🏈 🎉

Thursday on The Dan Dakich Show we caught up with Purdue head coach Jeff Brohm who is in Las Vegas with defensive end and first round draft prospect George Karlaftis.
“I would not bet against George …he is wired. I could see him wearing our coaches out, asking, ‘Coach, what tape can I watch on Saturday night in the offseason?’ “

Plus, Coach is hoping that stand out wide receiver David Bell sees him name jump off the board in one of the early rounds.
“David Bell is the best.”@DB3LL made history at @BoilerFootball. 🙌

Coach Brohm took us through what it was like to guide both Karlaftis and Bell over the years and spoke on the talent that an NFL team would be getting should they take one of them.
On top of all that, Dan pitches Coach Brohm on the start of his 2022 Heisman Trophy campaign for Purdue QB Aidan O’Connell.
