NFL Draft 2018
# NFL Draft 2018

Der NFL Draft 2018 war der 83. Auswahlprozess neuer Spieler (Draft) im American Football für die Saison 2018 der National Football League (NFL). Der Draft wurde vom 26. bis zum 28. April 2018 im AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, veranstaltet. Dies war der erste Draft, der in einem NFL-Stadion stattfand und der erste im US-Bundesstaat Texas.

Mit der Wahl von Lamar Jackson durch den 32. Pick der Baltimore Ravens wurden fünf Quarterbacks in der ersten Runde des Draftes gewählt, was zuvor nur zweimal geschah (1983 und 1999). Zudem sind mit dem Safety Terrell Edmunds und Linebacker Tremaine Edmunds zum ersten Mal zwei Brüder in der ersten Runden des gleichen Draftes ausgewählt worden.

Zum ersten Mal in der Geschichte der NFL wurde mit Shaquem Griffin ein einhändiger Footballspieler ausgewählt. Griffin, ehemaliger Linebacker der University of Central Florida, wurde mit dem 141. Pick von den Seattle Seahawks gedraftet. Bei den Seahawks wird Shaquem Griffin zudem zusammen mit seinem Zwillingsbruder Shaquill spielen, ein ebenfalls in der NFL höchst ungewöhnlicher Vorgang. Griffin verlor seine Hand durch eine Amputation in Folge der angeborenen Krankheit Amniotisches-Band-Syndrom.

## Frühe Auswahl

Um auswählbar zu sein, müssen die Spieler mindestens drei Jahre von der High School sein. Die Ausschlussfrist für die jüngeren Spieler für den Draft war der 15. Januar 2018.

## Vergabeprozess

Vierzehn Städte haben sich für das Draft beworben, darunter Dallas und Philadelphia als Favoriten. Am 18. Oktober 2017 wurde bekannt gegeben, dass der Draft im AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas – das Heimstadion der Dallas Cowboys – abgehalten wird.

## Spielerauswahl

Die Reihenfolge der Picks, in der die Teams Spieler auswählen können, wurde am 6. März 2018 von der NFL veröffentlicht. Die Teams hatten allerdings danach noch Zeit, ihre Draftrechte bzw. Picks zu tauschen. Ein Tausch der Draftrechte ist daher auch wenige Minuten vor den Pick möglich. So erfolgte am ersten Draft-Tag der Tausch mehrerer Picks, indem sich bspw. die Baltimore Ravens und Tennessee Titans auf einen Tausch ihrer Picks einigten – die Titans erwarben den 22. und 215. Pick von den Ravens für den 25. und 125. Pick.

### Runde 1

Die erste Draftrunde fand am 26. April ab 19:00 Uhr Ortszeit (27. April, 02:00 Uhr MESZ) statt.

## Verbreitung in den Medien

Der Draft wurde von vielen NFL-Medien-Partnern, unter anderem NFL Network und ESPN, übertragen. Der Draft wurde auch im Fernsehen gezeigt; Fox übernahm auf NFL Network an den ersten zwei Tagen die Übertragung. Diese Übertragung diente als Auftakt für die von Fox übernommen Thursday Night Football für die Saison 2018. ESPN übertrug die letzten vier Runden auch auf ABC und plante eine zweite Übertragung des ersten Abends auf ESPN2 (mit der Besetzung der ESPN College GameDay, welche eine spezielle Edition als Vorberichterstattung sendet) und in Spanisch auf ESPN Deportes.

In Deutschland wurde die erste Runde des Drafts von Ran auf ProSieben Maxx und per Livestream übertragen. Der gebührenpflichtige Streamingdienst DAZN übertrug in die DACH-Staaten alle Drafts und bot dabei via NFL Network den englischen Originalkommentar an.
