2020 Virtual Draft details:
— Commissioner Roger Goodell will announce the picks from his house in Westchester, NY (as @peter_king said).
— IT departments have completed their work, with cameras installed in the homes of all GMs and coaches. That’ll be on air and for compliance.

Two interesting teams who have been in touch with and monitoring #OU QB Jalen Hurts: The #Packers and the #Chargers. Both had meetings set up with him and have done virtual calls. Both have a veteran (of varying degrees) in as the starter and are expected to look to the future.

More QB draft notes:
— I have not talked to one team that doesn’t have #LSU’s Joe Burrow No. 1 overall.
— #UGA QB Jake Fromm is buzzing because of his interviews & he’s a favorite of QB coaches.
— Utah St QB Jordan Love is the true wildcard, with a draft window from No. 5 to 25.
There has been a few Cardinals drafted in the first which never heard from the Cards
you’re correct. Because a team brings someone in for a visit means absolutely nothing. Different teams have their own relationships in this process. If memory serves me correctly, Keim admitted as much 2-3 years ago. For instance, the Packers have been “monitoring” and meeting with Jalen Hurts. The Packers are nowhere near a position to take him, unless the shock the world with a blockbuster package to move into (at least) the top 10. The Cardinals brought Gronk in for a visit before the draft, and paid little mind to him. The cardinals likely brought him in as a favor to another team that didn’t want to be on the radar. It’s highly likely that team was in fact the Patriots, given Keims relationship with that front office. There’s so much diversion/smoke and mirrors stuff going on. The fact the Cardinals haven’t spoken to Lamb tells me he is on their radar...

According to what PFN Draft Analyst/Insider @TonyPauline has heard, Notre Dame WR Chase Claypool is being looked at as a TE by numerous teams.
In fact, some have him listed as TE1 on their boards.

A surprise from @Gil_Brandt, when asked how high Tua Tagovailoa will go in the draft, and whether Miami wants him at 5: “I would not be surprised to see Miami take a position player at that spot. It would not surprise me at all.”

Wisconsin’s Zach Baun, the third-rated linebacker on Mel Kiper Jr.’s board, notified all 32 teams that he testified positive for a diluted sample at the combine that he blamed on drinking too much water for weight-related weigh-in purposes, per league sources.

Here’s an interesting twist regarding Zach Baun testing positive for a diluted sample at combine: Under the NFL’s new CBA, it will not count as a strike against him whereas it would have under the NFL’s old CBA. Therefore, teams don’t believe it will impact his draft status much.

You protect your intentions by not revealing them. Now, this does not apply to the later rounds as much and once you get to about round four, some of those have been in contact with Cardinals and they show their hand but those first two rounds are very cloak and dagger for a lot of teams

One thing remains pretty clear heading into the 2020 NFL Draft: Coaches and evaluators have watched more tape this year than ever before. No workouts, no Pro Days… so much tape. Because there is nothing else to do.
