By John Buhler
The NFL Draft officially begins at 8:00 p.m. ET live from Cleveland, Ohio.
In a matter of hours, the 2021 NFL Draft will officially be underway live from Cleveland, Ohio.
After being conducted remotely a year ago, the draft will be out in somewhat full force on the banks of Lake Erie. Clevelanders and those who made the trek to Northeast Ohio can see 32 lives forever change on Thursday night once NFL commissioner Roger Goodell begins announcing names at 8:00 p.m. ET. So if you cannot watch the NFL Draft in person, what channel will it be on?
Here is how you can watch the 2021 NFL Draft in its entirety over the next three days.
NFL Draft 2021 TV channels: How to watch the NFL Draft
You can watch the NFL Draft on ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network. The Spanish telecast can be found on ESPN Deportes. You can also listen to the live coverage of the event on ESPN radio. So as it is pretty much every spring, the NFL Draft’s broadcasting rights belong to Disney. The good news this year is you don’t have to have cable to be able to watch it, as it will also air on ABC.
With the first two picks locked in with the Jacksonville Jaguars taking Trevor Lawrence out of Clemson and the New York Jets taking Zach Wilson out of BYU, the draft really begins at No. 3 with the San Francisco 49ers. They are going to be taking a quarterback as well, but we do not know if they will pick Ohio State’s Justin Fields, Alabama’s Mac Jones or North Dakota State’s Trey Lance.
Be sure to tune into ESPN, ABC or the NFL Network to not miss a second of NFL Draft coverage.
