We’re just two weeks away from the 2020 NFL Draft, and final preparations for this year’s event are underway. With the novel coronavirus pandemic limiting travel and group gatherings nationwide, the NFL won’t get to enjoy the fanfare — and rowdy fan presence — that always accompanies its prime-time spectacle. So they’re getting creative and inviting top prospects to share instant reactions to broadcast networks or social media on draft day.
The full list is much larger than the 30-or-so prospects that usually attend the draft and wait to be selected in the “green room.” Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, 58 draft prospects will be on hand when the Cincinnati Bengals go on the clock to start this year’s selections.
There’s a good chance that the player the New Orleans Saints will pick at No. 24 will be included on this list, and it’s possible that their next choice will be, too. While the Saints won’t make their next selection until No. 88, a trade up the board can’t the ruled out. And that player could be available late anyway given such an expansive list.
