Outside the Shoe (E44 - Talk to me about the (other) draft) - a podcast by SB Nation

The WNBA held its draft last night (sans any actual people), and with the NFL Draft coming up next week, Meredith talks through the different draft formats that allow college athletes to get to the pros in their respective sports.

So what else is happening with these drafts this summer?
