Coincidentally I will be in NYC the weekend of the draft. I am thinking of going. Anyone here ever been or know the procedure? Where do you get tickets, how much, etc? Is the experience worth it?

Don't go. It's first come first served, and people start lining up the night before. I tried to go for the Jammal Brown draft and it was impossible. They hand tickets right out at the door.
Though, if you're willing to sit through the second day, they give everyone who stays till the end of Day Two and advance ticket for the first day of next year's draft.
We used to go before you had to get there pre-dawn....3 hours early was sufficient. We were there for the Willie Roaf draft, and it was a lot of fun. They used to have a lot of giveaways; not sure if they do that now. Plus, it was at the Marriott Marquis, and the players would be in the lobby after they were drafted. The most fun, which hasn't changed, is hanging out with the poor Jets fans, and verbally abusing Mel Kiper.
If you don't have to waste half of your life waiting for a ticket, I'd go.
