Summary
The NFL Draft is usually a spectacle, but this year will be different. Teams will make selections remotely, top prospects will be at home instead of walking across the stage and Commissioner Roger Goodell is running the whole thing from his basement. Despite all of that, this year's draft class is stacked with a few potentially franchise-changing quarterbacks, some amazing defenders and a wide receiver group that is not only incredibly talented, but also very deep. The Athletic's Dane Brugler joins us to run down the top 10 picks in his latest mock draft and talk about some of the broader trends surrounding this unique event.
