Analys av NFL drafting och faktorers inverkan

American football is a well-known sport in America. In addition to the design and rules of the game and the surface it is played on, there are also other differences that are not directly visible. One difference noted in this study is how the teams in the game provide players. Each team has a board of directors together with the team's leadership and they will determine which players are most suitable for the team. These players are recruited to the team after graduating from a U.S. college. This makes it possible to recruit new and young players to the squad. If the team wants other types of new players, there is also an opportunity to replace one or more players. This is seen as a trading, where players are replaced with other players between the two teams. These two opportunities to recruit new players to the team are called drafting, which is a process of recruiting players.This study focuses on the recruitment of players from college. In America, it is a system used to recruit both new and old players to their respective teams in the National Football League, NFL. This study evaluates and analyzes the factors based on how each team in the NFL recruits players from the U.S. college league (NCAA). The factors analyzed were for instance each individual player?s performance during the college league, such as age, passing touchdowns and tackles. By using logistic analysis, these factors could then be determined by analyzing the odds and its change for each player's performance based on their positions in the team. This study shows that in every way a positional player performs during the college league, there will be important factors that contribute to recruitment to the NFL.
