Every year around the middle of March, we start hearing about certain draft-eligible players being brought in by NFL Clubs as part of their Top 30 visits. First off, the term "Top 30" is a misnomer because that term alone represents that the players are among the Top 30 of their Draft Board which is far from the case. I'll explain.
For just about as long as I can remember in the Draft process, NFL clubs have been allowed to bring in up to a total of 30 draft-eligible players for a visit. By League rule, the visit has to include some sort of medical examination, but in reality, that's a stretch.
