I dunno, I think there are more similarities than you might think between something like that, and Hard Knocks. TV producers are pretty good at creating shows out of nothing, so even if they don't have a whole lot to go on, they (esp. HBO) can make a pretty cool show even with their hands tied. Plus I think there's a lot of stuff that's compelling, but doesn't necessarily give away anything. For this year, they could follow the guys who dropped out of the first round (Geno Smith esp) - just get their reactions, interview them, get some GM reactions, etc. I bet a lot of teams would be fine with opening up a lot of their interviews - maybe there are two or three questions that they'd rather keep private, but I bet there are a bunch of generic questions that they'd have no problem disclosing.

I dunno, I like the idea. How do we get HBO on this...
