The Buffalo television market ranked fifth in the country in terms of percentage of households watching ESPN's coverage of the first round of the NFL Draft on Thursday. ESPN had a rating of 7.3 in Buffalo, meaning 7.3 percent of all households with a television were tuned in (whether the TV in the house was turned on or not). The top ESPN market was Cleveland (10.7), followed by Birmingham, Ala. (10.5), Dayton, Ohio (8.3) and Columbus, Ohio (7.3). Of course more households in each market were watching the draft, as well, because it also was on NFL Network.
