Schefter: Teams want to postpone NFL Draft

What would happen if this years draft goes ahead but the football season does not ? Would that mean the 2021 draft players from college will still go into a draft........probably but could be a log jam of players

I imagine the vast majority of college players would stay in school an extra year. There might be a supplemental draft for the extremely small number of players who wanted to turn pro despite not playing college ball next year (in other words, Trevor Lawrence).

My biggest problem with that is the unfairness of a team getting the #1 overall two years in a row, so I think league would have to mix up the order a bit.

Let’s hope the above does not come to pass.

We’re all working from home. Why can’t they? Draft is something that should easily be done remotely.

Yeah, and hopefully it wont last 6 hours per round , I guess all the talking and analysis between picks covers for the time taken on each pick , hopefully we will be spared the commissioner introducing all of round 1

If I don’t get auto insurance commercials featuring a swollen headed retired QB or a porn-stached QB whose family hates him after every draft selection, I might stay eating bats from the wet market again.

Imagine the rating if the nfl draft still going.

Got no problem with the One Round One Day idea...the time between picks during rounds 4-7 should then be expanded from 5 minutes to at least 7 if not 10 minutes....It would become a nightly viewing event like one of those old-school mini-series from the '70s & '80s such as North & South, Roots, Cain & Abel etc...

Goodell telling the teams the draft will take place as scheduled marks perhaps the first time I've ever agreed with him on anything.

He's also going to be pushing the games to start on time...there's too much money at stake to postpone or cancel the season.

That’s one where he would be wise to get the Union on his side.

I can work out who the swollen headed QB is but I need a clue on who the porn stached. QB is ...help

I believe that would be Mr Discount Double-Check himself, Aaron Rodgers...

Some teams might have better luck without extra information. It seems the more info some teams get, the worse they F it up
