The '''2008 NFL draft''' was the 73rd [[NFL draft|annual meeting]] of [[National Football League]] (NFL) franchises to select newly eligible [[American football]] players. The draft took place at [[Radio City Music Hall]] in [[New York City]], [[New York (state)|New York]], on April 26 and April 27, 2008.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.footballgeography.com/nfl-draft-sites/ |title=NFL Draft Locations |author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.--> |date=October 2, 2014 |website=FootballGeography.com |access-date=October 23, 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150905090250/http://www.footballgeography.com/nfl-draft-sites/ |archive-date=September 5, 2015 |url-status=dead |df=mdy-all }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Salomone |first1=Dan |title=NFL Draft headed to Chicago in 2015 |url=http://www.giants.com/news-and-blogs/article-1/NFL-Draft-headed-to-Chicago-in-2015/3ac322b1-3b4c-4a16-aba7-6e08d31b1756 |access-date=June 3, 2015 |publisher=[[New York Giants]] |work=Giants.com |date=October 2, 2014 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150930065327/http://www.giants.com/news-and-blogs/article-1/NFL-Draft-headed-to-Chicago-in-2015/3ac322b1-3b4c-4a16-aba7-6e08d31b1756 |archive-date=September 30, 2015 |url-status=dead |df=mdy-all }}</ref> For the 29th consecutive year, [[ESPN]] televised the draft; the [[NFL Network]] also broadcast the event, its third year doing so.

The '''[[2008 NFL season|2008]] [[NFL Draft]]''' is scheduled to take place at [[Radio City Music Hall]] in [[New York City]] on [[April 26]] and [[April 27]] [[2008]]. For the 29th consecutive year, [[ESPN]] has the rights to televise the draft; the [[NFL Network]] will also broadcast the event, its third year doing so. Of the 253 selections, 221 are regular selections in rounds one through seven, and 32 are [[NFL Draft#Compensatory Picks|compensatory selections]], distributed among rounds three through seven. ("Selection" is the official NFL term, although the more commonly-used term is "picks.") This will be the second draft presided over by current [[National Football League|NFL]] Commissioner [[Roger Goodell]]. |
|||
For the first time since the common draft began, no [[wide receiver]] was selected in the first round. For the first time ever, the first two picks had the same last name (Jake and Chris Long; they were unrelated). Also, a then-record 34 trades were made during the draft itself.<ref>{{cite news|agency=Associated Press |url=https://www.espn.com/nfl/draft08/news/story?id=3371175 |title=Teams deal way to record 34 trades on draft weekend |work=ESPN.com |date=April 28, 2008 |access-date=2008-11-29| archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20081206171421/http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/draft08/news/story?id=3371175| archive-date=December 6, 2008 | url-status= live}}</ref> The number of trades was later broken in [[2017 NFL draft|2017]]. |

==Changes for 2008== |
|||
[[Image:08 NFL Logo.png|thumb|right|200px|The new NFL logo, which will officially go into use at the 2008 draft.]] |
|||
The draft will mark the official debut of a new NFL shield logo,<ref>[http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/nfl/2007-08-30-shield-change_N.htm?loc=interstitialskip NFL to revamp shield with redesigned logo] USA Today</ref> replacing the old shield logo which had been used since 1970. |
|||
As of 2024, there are only 4 remaining active players in the NFL from the 2008 draft class: [[Duane Brown]], [[Calais Campbell]], [[Joe Flacco]], and [[Josh Johnson (quarterback)|Josh Johnson]], although Johnson was absent from 2014 to 2017, from 2019 to 2020, and again in 2023. |
|||
The new logo will not be the only change at the 2008 Draft. Only two rounds will take place during the first day, changing from three in previous years. The draft will also start at 3:00 p.m. [[Eastern Time Zone (North America)|US EDT]], after starting at noon in previous years. Limits in the amount of time a team has to make a selection have also changed: the first round has been reduced from fifteen minutes to ten, and the second round was reduced from ten minutes to seven. The second day will begin at 10:00 a.m. US EDT, for the remaining five rounds with no changes to the five-minute selection time limit.<ref>{{cite web |

==Changes for 2008== |
|||
The schedule for the draft was changed: day one began at 3:00 PM.[[Eastern Time Zone|EDT]] (1900 [[Coordinated Universal Time|UTC]]), instead of noon, and consisted of just two rounds. Day two began with round three at 10:00 AM EDT (1400 UTC), instead of 11:00 AM. Moreover, the time limits for day one selections were reduced, from 15 minutes to ten for first-round picks and from ten minutes to seven in the second. The limit remained five minutes for all picks in rounds three through seven.<ref>{{cite web |

The draft also marked the official debut of a new NFL shield logo, replacing the old shield logo which had been used since 1970, featuring eight white stars to represent each of the league's eight divisions, and a football rotated to the same angle as the one on the top of the [[Vince Lombardi Trophy]] given to the Super Bowl champion.<ref>{{cite news |
|||
==Determining the draft order== |
|||
| author = Michael McCarthy |
|||
The draft order is generally based on each team's [[2007 NFL season#Final regular season standings|regular season record]], as follows: |

== Player breakdown == |

#<!-- See talk page before changing following sentence. --Stismail -->The winners of [[Super Bowl XLII]] are given the last selection, and the losers the second to last selection.<ref name="order">{{cite news |
|||
The following is the breakdown of the 252 players by position: |

| language = English |
|||
| |
|||
| publisher = NFL.com |

* 28 [[Linebacker]]s |
|||
| accessdate = 2007-02-23 }}</ref> |
|||
* 26 [[Defensive end]]s |
|||
#Remaining teams are sorted by regular season record, with worse records picking first, regardless of [[NFL playoffs, 2007-08|playoff]] status. This is why the Cleveland Browns, who finished 10-6 but did not make the playoffs, will pick ''after'' the Washington Redskins, who finished 9-7, but did make the playoffs. |
|||
* 26 [[Offensive tackle]]s |
|||
#For teams with the same record, teams that fail to make the playoffs always pick before teams that earned playoff berths. This is why the Browns will pick before the Seattle Seahawks. |
|||
| |
|||
#For teams that failed to make the playoffs, remaining ties are broken by [[strength of schedule]]. (In the NFL, a team's strength of schedule is the combined records of its 16 opponents, including games played against the team in question, and counting divisional opponents twice. Because of this, each team's opponents' combined wins and losses will add up to 256, so a team whose opponents had more combined wins has a better strength of schedule. For draft order, a lower strength of schedule results in an earlier pick.) If strength of schedule does not resolve a tie, division and/or conference tiebreakers may be used. If the tie still cannot be broken, a coin toss at the [[NFL Combine]] is used to determine draft order. |
|||
* 23 [[Running back]]s |
|||
#For teams that make the playoffs, ties are broken by the order in which teams lost in the playoffs. If teams lost in the same round, strength of schedule is applied. |
|||
* 18 [[Defensive tackle]]s |
|||
* 16 [[Tight end]]s |
|||
* 15 [[Safety (gridiron football position)|Safeties]] |
|||
* 13 [[Quarterback]]s |

==Player selections== |

The table below is divided into "segments" (the official term for teams tied at the same record). In subsequent rounds, the picks will cycle within each segment, the relative order remaining the same as it did in the first round. For example, in the 8-8 segment, the order for the second round is Minnesota, Houston, Philadelphia, and then Arizona. |

* '''Redskins to Broncos'''. The [[Washington Redskins]] traded their fourth-round selection in 2008, and their third-round selection in 2007 (used to select [[Ryan Harris]]) to the [[Denver Broncos]] as part of a three-team trade in which Washington received [[T.J. Duckett]] and Atlanta received [[Ashley Lelie]]. (This was the result of a formula which could have had Denver and Washington swapping 2007 first-round selections.)<ref>[http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qn4191/is_20070813/ai_n19471706 Broncos: The Ashley Lelie Trade] The Colorado Springs Gazette</ref> |
|||
<!-- Not Wiki like, and, according to the source, not correct. --Stismail Note: The complicated trade formula involved this: Denver sends Wide Receiver Ashley Lelie to the Atlanta Falcons. Atlanta then sends Running Back T.J. Duckett to the Washington Redskins. Washington then agreed to swap 1st rounders with Denver if Denver made the playoffs and finished with a better record. The Broncos finished with a better record, but did not make the playoffs, in which case the Broncos would have had pick 6 in the 1st round, and Washington would have had pick 21. However, the other part of the formula stated that if they ended up not swapping first rounders, the Broncos would receive the Redskins 2007 3rd round draft choice, as well as their 2008 first rounder. Thus, they have not paid their full debt, do not have the player they traded for, and the Broncos came away with a steal of a trade. All you have to do is read the reference in the above trade confirmation. --> |

The 2008 NFL draft was the 73rd annual meeting of National Football League (NFL) franchises to select newly eligible American football players. The draft took place at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, New York, on April 26 and April 27, 2008.[1][2] For the 29th consecutive year, ESPN televised the draft; the NFL Network also broadcast the event, its third year doing so. Of the 252 selections,[3] 220 were regular selections in rounds one through seven, and 32 were compensatory selections,[4] distributed among rounds three through seven.[5] As of the end of the 2018 season, 27 players have been selected to the Pro Bowl.
For the first time since the common draft began, no wide receiver was selected in the first round. For the first time ever, the first two picks had the same last name (Jake and Chris Long; they were unrelated). Also, a then-record 34 trades were made during the draft itself.[6] The number of trades was later broken in 2017.
As of 2024, there are only 4 remaining active players in the NFL from the 2008 draft class: Duane Brown, Calais Campbell, Joe Flacco, and Josh Johnson, although Johnson was absent from 2014 to 2017, from 2019 to 2020, and again in 2023.
Changes for 2008
[edit]The schedule for the draft was changed: day one began at 3:00 PM.EDT (1900 UTC), instead of noon, and consisted of just two rounds. Day two began with round three at 10:00 AM EDT (1400 UTC), instead of 11:00 AM. Moreover, the time limits for day one selections were reduced, from 15 minutes to ten for first-round picks and from ten minutes to seven in the second. The limit remained five minutes for all picks in rounds three through seven.[7]
The draft also marked the official debut of a new NFL shield logo, replacing the old shield logo which had been used since 1970, featuring eight white stars to represent each of the league's eight divisions, and a football rotated to the same angle as the one on the top of the Vince Lombardi Trophy given to the Super Bowl champion.[8]
