Guys, eastern time, what time does espn coverage of the draft begin. thanks, s

Noon, I believe.

ESPN's coverage of the draft starts at 11 AM eastern; the draft itself begins at 12 PM eastern time, after Mel K. has everyone warmed up....

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure ESPN coverage begins at noon eastern and the niner's go on the clock at 1:00pm eastern.

Actually I heard the bit about all the hype starting at 11AM on the radio, (Mel Kiper was briefly on yesterday with Sean S.) ESPN lists the actual draft as starting at 12 noon to 5:30 pm. in their tv listings...

Somebody make it hurry up:1:
