The NFL and MLB drafting process should be the same because the NFL draft is at a disadvantage. The NFL draft has seven rounds; however, the MLB draft has 40 rounds (Stewart 1).

Changes Made to the Draft of Strange Meeting Reality in warfare and the painful truths that accompany war are skillfully presented in Wilfred Owen's war poem "Strange Meeting."
