Draft Day Evaluation

Rating: 8/10 (14 September 2015)

After watching the movie "Draft Day", I was amazed at the detail the producers were able to put in the movie. I am a die-hard football fan and was blown away with some of the information they were able to get out to the viewers. The movie really took the viewers into the the daily life of an NFL general manager. The producers did a great job at highlighting the pros and cons of being an NFL general manager. They showed actor Kevin Costner at his highest and his lowest throughout the film.
Many people believe that the people who work in the front office for NFL teams have huge mansions and sip on margaritas all day. While the first part of that statement might be true, many don't understand the constant stress general manager's are under every day. Throughout this movie, we get a close look at how Sonny Weaver is constantly under pressure. Failure to make a big move could take away everything he has worked for.
"Draft Day" shows the human side of NFL general manager's and how they are no different then any other hard working employee in the United States. This movie isn't exclusively for football fans. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for good drama and a lot of action.
