Behind the stage at Radio City Music Hall is a large green room for the players and their families. Each player gets to invite 12 guests and there is plenty of food and drinks for them.

But a smaller, more intimate green room is also located behind the stage. Call it the commissioner's green room. This exclusive space is reserve for Roger Goodell and his guests (usually NFL alumni and executives). I was able to get a quick peek into it and took this shot to get an true behind-the-scenes look.

Just off the stage at Radio City Music Hall is the commissioner's table. During the first round, this table is filled with pre-printed names of the top prospects. Goodell can easily grab the right one as soon as he is advised of a team's pick.

Also, at this table is a flat screen TV which images of feeds including from inside the building, the NFL Network and ESPN. The table is conveniently located just outside the Commissioner's green room.
