Today is officially draft day as the NFL Draft begins from Philadelphia on April 27, but can you watch the movie Draft Day on Netflix?

The NFL Draft gets underway today with the first round. This year’s draft has been full of intrigue and speculation about the quarterbacks and who the Cleveland Browns will take with the No. 1 pick.

Cleveland is faced with the task of rebuilding the franchise and finding an impact player with the first overall pick, but they could also trade down and try to acquire more picks to help fill needs on the roster. If this sounds familiar to you, then you know this is standard practice for the Browns. It could also sound familiar because it’s the plot for the movie Draft Day.

The 2014 movie starred Kevin Costner as Sonny Weaver, the general manager of the Browns and holds the No. 1 pick. He wants to take Vontae Mack but his coaching staff wants to take quarterback Bo Callahan. That split from the front office and coaching staff is eerily similar to what’s happening to the real-life Browns. Reportedly, the coaching staff wants defensive end Myles Garrett from Texas A&M while the front office who relies on analytics to frame their decision-making wants North Carolina quarterback Mitchell Trubisky.

If you’ve already had your fix of pre-draft chatter and need a respite before the first round begins or want some post-draft theater to wind down, you may want to watch Draft Day on Netflix. Unfortunately, you can’t stream Draft Day on Netflix, but it is available to rent on DVD.
