One of the best parts of draft day are the behind-the-scenes videos, where teams inform players they are being drafted into the NFL. Usually, the general manager or head coach is the one delivering the news.
However, the Jets decided to flip the script a bit. When drafting Louisiana offensive tackle Max Mitchell with a fourth round pick, Joe Douglas let Chris Nolan, the area scout who scouted Mitchell, make the call.
“I don’t know if you remember me but I was the area scout, at fall camp I talked to you, I met you at the Senior Bowl,” Nolan said.
