The Eagles traded their 2017 first-round pick to the Cleveland Browns in a blockbuster deal to move up to No. 2 in this year's draft.

The NHL Draft was held at Philadelphia's Wells Fargo Center in 2014 and of course, fans booed NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman.

This year's NFL Draft is on Thursday. At 11:00 a.m., just hour before the draft begins, you can participate in a live draft with Hall Of Fame football analyst Ray Didinger.
