The NFL Draft was this week and the thing I most care about is not the players or who is playing for who next fall... but of course the outfits. Some of these guys have a stylist and some of them obviously need one. You wouldn't think that there would be much to talk about with these guys because there isn't any big fancy dresses or jewelry, but these guys will not let themselves be ignored by the fashion industry. There were some people over-dressed and some of them were under-dressed in the way that they were wearing less clothes than others.
Here's some players that I decided to look over, some best dressed and some could use some work:
Myles Jack, he was a linebacker for UCLA and now he will be playing for the Jacksonville Jaguars next fall. He is killing it in this patterned suit jacket with matching bow tie. A very classy look for a very classy man. I approve Myles.
Taylor Decker, old OSU offensive tackle and now playing for the Detroit Lions. He is sporting a very nice blue suit with a purple tie. He is also looking great in a very large silver watch.
A'Shawn Robinson was a defensive tackle at Alabama and now will be playing in Detroit. He needs some work. First of all, he is not even wearing a button-up shirt to this event. Sir, you are getting drafted for the NFL... least you can do is put on a tie. Not pictured were his capris. He looks like he just got off the beach and put a suit jacket on because he forgot where he was going. Sorry, A'Shawn, this look is not working.
Chris Jones was a defensive lineman from Mississippi State and now will be a Chief. He looks adorable because he is matching the team that picked him without even knowing. The suit jacket and bow tie look so nice with the new Chiefs hat. He is looking great.
Joey Bosa used to be a defensive end for OSU and now will be in San Diego as a Charger. He is sporting the scarlet and grey with a very nice grey-suit-black-shirt combo. It looks amazing and I approve of him and I am a little in love with him. Keep shrugging those shoulders in San Diego, Bosa.
I am very torn when it comes to this ensemble. Though former OSU running back Ezekiel Elliott made quite an impression, especially with the Cowboys, this is a fashion no. This is very funny because of how he would wear his jersey while being a Buckeye. The NCAA told him he can't wear it like that and so just to be the kind of joker that the people in Columbus know him to be, he flashed this look on the red carpet. He looks very nice, but I'm not sure if he had the most fashion-foward look. He is contributing in fashion in his own way with his line EZE Apparel, so if his football career doesn't work out, at least he can sell crop tops to others who can rock not wearing a real shirt.
As we move into the final rounds of the draft, you know I will be checking in on all the fashion "dos and don'ts" that these men will be sporting. I want to wish all these players and everyone else that has been drafted or will be drafted to "break a leg" or whatever you say to sports people next fall.
