On the lighter side, while bored and awaiting draft day......
There are numerous difficult pronunciation names in this draft. Many you can kind of sound out and not struggle too much to pronounce. IE: Obi Melinfonwu. Others tend to tie your mouth up a little. After scanning all of the positions/players listed on 3sigmaathlete, here are the ones that I think are most difficult. Unfortunately, only a few will likely have their names trying to be pronounced on TV this year by the draft guru's. Try pronouncing any of them 10 times as fast as you can and it will take longer than you'd think + you will have a sore mouth. Any of these guys that are drafted will have nicknames for sure.
