WATCH: Kirk Herbstreit goes in-depth on his top prospects in the 2018 NFL Draft
In case you’ve forgotten, Kirk Herbstreit will be a part of ESPN’s coverage of the NFL Draft for the first time this year. The network plans on hosting a live College GameDay to cover the draft from a college angle.
The first segment of College GameDay will air on ESPN leading up to the draft from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. ET and the second segment will be on ESPN2 beginning at 8 p.m. ET. GameDay regulars Lee Corso, Desmond Howard, David Pollack, Maria Taylor and Tom Rinaldi will be joining Herbstreit from Arlington’s AT&T Stadium to cover the draft.
Taking his increased role into consideration, ESPN has been featuring the GameDay host all over the network heading into the draft. His latest appearance came on the network’s new morning show Get Up! with Mike Greenberg.
During his appearance on the show, Herbstreit discusses Minkah Fitzpatrick, Christian Kirk, Roquan Smith, Nick Chubb and Arden Key.
A graduate of the University of Tennessee, Michael Wayne Bratton oversees the news coverage for Saturday Down South. Michael previously worked for FOX Sports and NFL.com
