Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the NFL Draft – which was originally being held at Paradise, Nev. — will now be done virtually. News of this came on Thursday via NFL.com, as the event will still go from April 23-25. All 32 teams will be conducting the draft from outside their facilities, using phones and internet for communication. According to the site, 58 prospects will participate in the virtual draft – including six standouts from the University of Alabama.
Tua Tagovailoa (quarterback) and Jedrick Wills (offensive lineman) are both expected to be selected in the top-10.
