The 2020 NFL Draft will still go on as planned later this month despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and it apparently would include three more rounds than usual if a recent league proposal by Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert had been accepted.
According to Manish Mehta of The New York Daily News, Colbert told league officials on a recent conference call that teams should be awarded three extra draft picks given the pre-draft challenges caused by the coronavirus restrictions.
Mehta goes on to write that pro day cancellations and private workouts along with no annual team visits has thrown some organizations for a loop with the Steelers likely being one them.
