Today the NFL announced the combine will not take place like years past for safety against covid. And players will not be brought into one place. Interviews will be done virtually. Players can be seen on their pro days. The NFL will try and have all the pro days do a standard workout so everyone can be evaluated equally.
The virus that just keeps giving. Hope the teams can get the same judgement on the players. Think it will be harder on the mid and lower rounds.
Anyway stay tuned.

Not good to hear, but hopefully things will get back to normal somewhat by the start of next season.

Gonna be a crap shoot scouting the players who opted out of the 2020 season do you think chase will fall? I feel Smith leapfrogged him in the draft this past year, but I cant see why he wouldn't be the 2nd WR off the board. I still think Chase is going to be a better pro than Smith.

He will be gone looong before we pick and don't worry DG will grab a a future HOF HB from Appalachian State to supplement our running game..Who needs WRs receivers anyway?

We don't need a QB. What am I missing? Not being able to interview kids in person is tough, because I think you can learn a lot by shaking someone's hand and looking them in the eye. The actual combine itself, the athletic portion, is much to do about nothing in my opinion. Us as fans will have less to talk about this off-season, which sucks, but I don't think teams drastically adjust their opinions on players based on the combine. I think they're based more on the hours of film study and in-game performance. I do agree it will be interesting to see how teams approach players who opted out. Personally, I won't be upset if players like Chase, Parsons, or Sewell fall to #11, so I'm hoping teams back off.

This year will feature individual pro days with elements ofthe combine thrown in. Agree with you about the combine, much ado about very little.
