NFL Draft 2023 is finally here and the action starts with the first-round kicking off Thursday (April 27) at Union Station in Kansas City, Missouri.

The draft will be streaming live on ABC, ESPN and NFL Network and you can watch for free with fuboTV (Start your free trial)

For 31 players (Miami was stripped of its Day 1 pick), Thursday night will be the realization of a lifelong dream.

Many mock drafts have Jordan Addison projected as one of those players, but he highlights a class of a possible seven USC players who have a chance of getting drafted this weekend. 

While Addison could be a top-20 pick, the other soon-to-be former Trojans will likely have to wait to hear their names called when the draft continues with the second and third rounds Friday night or concludes with rounds 4-7 Saturday afternoon. 

Here is how you can watch the first round of the NFL Draft 2023:
