"Harry Potter" star Daniel Radcliffe took his newfound devotion to pro football to the next level with a front row seat at the NFL Draft on Thursday night.

The English actor recently confessed he was obsessed both by the sport and online fantasy football and was seen spellbound at Radio City Music Hall as teams made their moves.

Radcliffe became a big fan of the Giants while based in the US starring in two Broadway shows over the past two years. He was on hand to attend his debut draft after filming his latest movie in New York.

The 22-year-old had to wait until the end of Round 1 before the Super Bowl champions claimed explosive running back David Wilson out of Virginia Tech with the 32nd pick.

But he will have taken careful note of the previous 31 picks to boost his fantasy hand ahead of the new season.
