Today Commissioner Goodell announced that the NFL would be moving the draft to a complete remote draft, with GMs picking from there own houses.
This means no war rooms and certainly no stage walk ups. But most importantly it means no booing Goodell as he announces the pick, which is a shame because booing him has become an NFL Draft staple which millions of fans look forward to each year.
Anyway, it will be interesting to see what a complete virtual draft looks like with GMs being at their own homes. Will this effect any picks or make things easier for GMs since they can pick with out a whole staff breathing down their necks?
We will have to wait til April 23 to find out. The NFL Draft will still be broadcasted on ESPN and ABC and I look forward to seeing Howie Roseman quarantined in his house for the safety of the NFL. God Speed Howie.
Go Birds.
