Detroit hosted the draft for the first time in 2024. It drew a record crowd of 275,000 people downtown for last year's first round. When the three-day draft was over, more than 775,000 fans had shown up to the NFL's annual April showcase, which also stood as a record.

Parking and traffic is no joke, and you have to wait in line for many of the exhibits, but I think everyone should go and check it out.

A parking lot outside Lambeau Field in Green Bay provided a festive setting for the first night of the NFL draft.
