The National Football League will hold a Round 6 pick of the league draft on April 27 at the athletic facilities of Augustana College.

Activities begin at noon. There will be a bounce house, a clinic for children in grades 3-8 (registration required), and a vintage football game recreating one of the first professional football games with the Rock Island Independents vs. St. Paul Ideals..

This 2019 NFL draft will be the 84th annual meeting of franchises to select eligible players. 

The first game ever played featuring an NFL team was on Sept. 26, 1920, at Rock Island's Douglas Park. The Rock Island Independents, which was an original National Football League franchise, played St. Paul.
