Why not just do everything remotely and keep the date as is if you’re going to cancel Vegas completely?

That’s what I would think. This doesn’t make it sound that way.

How much money do they make now when there are not that many tickets sold to get inside? Make the NFL draft pay per view like boxing. People will pony up the money to watch.

Have 100 - 125 players with remote video/audio access set ups and do rounds 1 and 2 day 1. Rounds 3 - 7 the next day. All 32 teams would have video access as well as Godell.

My first reaction was

But....it does give BB an entire extra month to watch film on every draft eligible player and for Ernie to double and triple check his statistical analyses.

I still contend the League should hold the draft remotely and promise Vegas 2021.

The $ they’ll lose will be negligible and the viewership could potentially skyrocket.

Exactly.

The real money that is lost consists of the airlines, hotels, car rentals and such.The NFL draft is a premier event and would get paid viewership without question.
