For every first-round NFL draft pick, draft night is an unforgettable experience.
Such was the case for Duke offensive lineman Graham Barton, who heard his name called as the No. 26 overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Years of hard work and dedication culminate in that whirlwind of moments, from getting “the call” from your new team and celebrating with friends and family, to making your first media appearance as an NFL player.
If you’ve ever wondered what that looks like behind the scenes for all parties involved, check out this awesome video from Barton and the Bucs:
