Draft Academy (Season 1 & 2)

Every year, thousands of football players are evaluated, tested, and interviewed for a chance to play on the ultimate stage: the NFL. Evolve Studio partnered with ESPN Features to create an unscripted sports follow doc that tells the stories of 6 of these men.

ESPN’s Draft Academy is an 8-part, 30-minute episodic, unscripted series that gives a raw point of view to the 100 days leading up to the NFL Draft. This season follows Draft hopefuls Nick Bosa, Drew Lock, Josh Jacobs, Marquise Brown, Jarrett Stidham, and Tyree Jackson on their journey being drafted into the NFL. Following the athlete’s mental, physical, and emotional preparations, we get an honest look at what these men must give up for a chance at their dreams.
