It was evident right away the kind of impact the draft had on Nolan; he was taken aback and even overcome with emotion. All the years of dedication and sacrifice had officially paid off. This was a moment that will define Nolan for the rest of his life and I was honored to witness it.
Moreover, it was just an honor to witness a moment of true joy, pride, and accomplishment. Nolan is setting his sights on the future and I couldn’t be more excited and proud for him. I know the impact he will have on the NFL will be priceless – the league is lucky to have him!

Now that I’ve shared my story of how Nolan Smith achieved his dream of being drafted into the NFL, I wanted to expand by talking a bit more about the journey he made to get to the draft.
Nolan’s journey began during his college years. He was a USF Bull all the way, never missing a game and always turning heads with his talent on the field. It became clear very early on that Nolan had the potential to make it in the NFL. He worked tirelessly on perfecting his skills in every area of the game. Strength training, conditioning, agility drills, nutrition – Nolan was committed to being the best of the best.
But Nolan’s training went even deeper than the physical side of things. He made sure that he had the mental fortitude to overcome doubt and adversity. He always used setbacks as motivation rather than letting them define him. He was dedicated to his dream and worked hard to make it come true.
Following college, Nolan was ready to take the next step and showcase his talents on the bigger stage. He was invited to the NFL Scouting Combine, and while he was there, he showed off his skills and made a big impression on the scouts. He was one of the standout players of the Combine and it was clear that he was ready to take his game to the next level.
After the Combine, Nolan was back in the gym and working even harder to prepare for the NFL Draft. He had to prove he could perform at the highest level and live up to the very high expectations other people had for him. He was determined not to let anyone down, least of all himself.
Despite the intense pre-draft speculation surrounding him, Nolan kept a level head and stayed focused on the goal. He worked harder than ever to get ready and put on a show for the teams. He knew that this was his moment to make his mark and he wasn’t going to let anything stand in his way.
On the day of the big event, nerves quickly faded away as Nolan embraced the moment and reveled in the excitement. He was ready to make history and take his talents to the NFL. He was confident and determined as he waited for his name to be called. And when it finally was, it was a surreal and emotional moment for him.
Finally, after going through the entire draft process from start to finish, Nolan was finally drafted. He worked hard for years to get to this point and was finally able to reach his dream of playing in the NFL. It was an amazing moment for him and his entire family.
While the draft was certainly a milestone moment for Nolan, this was just the beginning of his journey. Now, with the draft behind him, he is now going to focus even harder and make the most of every opportunity that the NFL gives him. I can’t wait to see the bright future that Nolan will have in the league!
