The NFL Draft goes virtual

It's like everyone's fantasy drafts, just with teams making worse picks and a whole lot more money.

I'm sure all the players that are projected to go in the 1st/2nd round have been sent instruction booklets to extend their webcam 'thank you/I'm so proud' moment with their 1-2 out of wedlock kids as much as possible.

By agreeing to cry and drag out your thank you by 60+ seconds, you will receive a $5,000 bonus from the NFL for allowing our event to run the normal time and allow our sponsors opportunities to advertise. If you are able to extend the thank you by 180+ seconds, you will receive a $7,500 bonus from the NFL, which will be negotiated into your contract, subject to COVID-19 funding policy as per directive 92 of the NFLPA code of conduct.

I just made this up, but I'm assuming it's 99% accurate.

First time I get to use it

Note to 31 GMs... Patriots will be sending videographers to every GM's house to finish that one 'advanced scouting' documentary.

And Kraft will Zoom cast live from a Chinese massage parlor.

That’s so sad that they have to draft from their multi-million dollar mansions. I bet it’s so uncomfortable to draft from a 5,000 square foot rumpus room.

The New York Post confirms T.V. production of this year's draft will be an ESPN/NFL Network simulcast.
NBC's Peter King first reported as such on Monday. With NFL Network's production capabilities shuttered as COVID-19 lockdowns remain in place, ESPN will take the lead, with NFL Network personalities mixing in. Per reporter Andrew Marchand, various prospects will "film their reactions from their draft night locations" with equipment provided by the league. It will be a decidedly lo-fi affair, though no one will be complaining considering the circumstances. With teams required to draft from home, technical snafus that would normally be annoying figure to add many moments of levity to what is often an over-serious affair.
