"1984: A War Is Upon Us"

The NFL is engaged in a war with the upstart USFL over players: Maryland's Boomer Esiason slips in the Draft; BYU's Steve Young receives an offer he can't refuse.

Produced by NFL Films, "Caught in the Draft" is a five-episode series that provides a comprehensive look at the past 50 years of the NFL Draft. The series focuses on five particular drafts -- 1964, 1974, 1984, 1994 and 2004 -- that had a profound impact on the National Football League and helped to transform the NFL Draft into the big-time event it is today. Episodes use both archived and fresh interviews to supplement the most compelling stories from the five drafts, presenting a clear sense of how differently drafts were conducted years ago, including how the nature of the game as it was played in each of those times dictated the types of players selected.
