There have been a few stories passing around recently about the potential for college football to become a spring sport in 2021.
Example 1; Example 2;
Major Counterpoint - Example 3 -
So, probably not a spring season, but it's a possibility.
A spring CFB season would obviously be a huge factor on the '21 draft and probably whether rookies drafted in '21 would be as effective for their NFL teams after effectively playing 2 seasons in 1 calendar year.
Given that, would you push '21 draft capital to '20 draft capital or as a trade for players?

A plurality (41 percent) believes we’ll have a 12-game season beginning in October or November, while 24 percent believe the season will start as scheduled and 20 percent think the season will be reduced to a conference-only schedule beginning in October. Of note: 23 percent of Power 5 ADs believe that option will happen compared to 18 percent of Group of 5 ADs; a season that saw guaranteed games canceled would be especially harsh on Group of 5 budgets.
Only 11 percent of FBS ADs foresee a season starting in the spring."
