It's official: defenders are sexy again. The NFL Draft 2022 has been one of the most eyebrow-raising classes in decades, with Travon Walker (Jaguars) emerging as a faintly surprising No.1 overall pick, ahead of fellow defensive ends Aidan Hutchinson (Lions) and Kayvon Thibodeaux (Giants). We've already seen local heroes, QBs, RBs and TEs left in the shade, and at least one (Cole) Strange turn of events. Read on as we explain how to get a 2022 NFL Draft live stream no matter where you are in the world - there are even options to watch absolutely FREE in some regions.

Perhaps inspired by Joe Burrow's efforts for the Bengals, and proving that romance isn't dead, Hutchinson, Ikem Ekwonu (Panthers), Kenyon Green (Texans) and the sole quarterback to go in the first round, Kenny Pickett (Steelers), have all been snapped up by their local teams.
No running backs or tight ends were selected in the first round, which has never happened before. But after a dizzying off-season that's been dominated by griping quarterbacks and sniping wide receivers, the dramatic elevation of the game's less glamorous figures is a twist we can get on board with.
For some teams' fans, this will unfortunately be the high point of the season, but if Jacksonville and Detroit fans can't get carried away now, when the heck can they? Whichever team you root for, follow our guide on how to watch an NFL Draft 2022 live stream wherever you are in the world.

How to watch NFL Draft 2022 from outside your country
If you've mismatched a holiday or you're away on business and you want to watch your country's coverage of the 2022 NFL Draft from abroad, then you'll need to use a VPN. This will help you dial in to a location back in your home country to avoid geo-blocks and regain access to the content and services you already pay for back home.
A VPN is generally perfect for this as it allows you to change your IP address so you appear to be in a completely different location when the big game is on.
