    Instead we will have regional medical check centers and formalized Pro Days.
    HAHA whats the difference? At least everyone is all in one place and the stadium is big enough for social distancing. Geez they had fans in the stands at these games yesterday and the players are all along their sidelines gathered up with masks......mostly. Some of these decisions to me are puzzlers.
    Now TT and company will have to fly all over to go to Pro Days?

      Yup...makes no sense except for this second covid wave going on now. I would think they could quarantine the top 200 players in the country for 4 days before they allow them to mingle at the combine...1st day test and then another 3 days later etc.

        TT could also hire some freelancer for at least some of those Pro Days (especially the Sammie Small Schoolers) to do a VIRTUAL pro day using Skype...could even do an interview...

              I think they should let YOU run the show!
              Your idea sounds much more efficient and probably safer.
              Powers to be are out-thinking themselves.

                The league informed clubs that there will be no NFL Combine ahead of the 2021 draft.


                Colleges will instead hold individual pro days, including timing and testing rules that have yet to be decided, on campus and provide corresponding video to all clubs whether it was represented or not. Each team will also be allowed to send one physician and one athletic trainer to conduct an in-person medical examination for a "certain number of prospects" at a designated location in early April. The league is still clearly flying by the seat of its pants, but one thing is certain: the 2021 combine and ensuing draft will be even more mysterious (and chaotic) than the 2020 version.

                  I’m upgrading the chances of getting Parsons to about 20%. No way the Bolts take an OT is he is on the board now.
                  Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.

                    Ah yes Pro Days. Where players' 40 times are magically faster, players measure taller, and players measure heavier. Time to go old school and review tape.

                      There are a lot of good players that opted out this year. But for me personally there may be more emphasis on guys that actually dominated this past year. Really odd year for the draft imo.

                        Yeah there's no way Kyler Murray measured a true 5'10". He didn't get measured at the combine. He probably had brass in pockets as well as he weighed in at 205.
