By Sarah Kingsbury Thu, 04/27/2017

Between April 27 and April 29, the 2017 NFL Draft will be broadcast on ESPN and the NFL Network. And since you may not be near a TV that whole time, you'll want to know how to stream the NFL Draft on your iPhone or iPad from wherever you are to make sure you don't miss a moment of the excitement. How you stream the 2017 NFL draft on your iPhone or iPad will depend on what kind of cable or streaming services you are using. Here's how to watch the 2017 NFL draft on your phone or tablet.

WatchESPN

Provided that you have a cable subscription that includes ESPN, the the free WatchESPN app will allow you to watch the NFL draft on your iPhone, iPad, or Apple TV.

PlayStation Vue

If PlayStation Vue is your streaming service of choice, you'll be glad to know the service has an iOS app that will allow you to stream the NFL Draft on ESPN and the NFL Network on your iPhone or iPad.

DirecTVnow

Sign up for a package that includes ESPN and ESPN 2 in order to stream the NFL Draft on your iPhone or iPad. The first month is free, so you could even sign up just to watch the Draft and then cancel.

Sling TV

You'll need to sign up for the Sling Orange and Blue services to get both ESPN and the NFL Network, but again, there is a seven-day free trial if you just want to stream the NFL draft and then sign up again later once the regular NFL season starts.

NFLNow

The NFL will be streaming live updates on the 2017 NFL Draft on the NFL.com and on the NFL app.
