Normally, the top NFL Draft prospects would be gearing up to head to Indianapolis for the NFL Combine this week. Instead, due to the pandemic, there won’t be an event in Indy.
Pro Days will be held at various schools ahead of the April draft, but for now, analysts are having to make due with other ways to rate players.
