Little surprised but it can be done with little or no travel.

I was supposed to go to Vegas for it. I guess if Mgm is still open I can still go just no public event for draft.

I'm not surprised at all. It doesn't require a large gathering to hold the draft. They can conduct it the same way they are doing FA now.

Each team will work from their War Room. Aside from a live audience, I don't suspect we will notice any difference in the way the draft is ran.

Will espn/nfl network show the players/family in their homes when being announced? Or will that even be taboo.

Got an alert last night, MGM will be closed until May 1st. Or I think that is what is aid. However, MGM owns several hotels in Vegas under different names. I believe Mandalay Bay where the draft is being held (think that is the hotel) is owned by MGM or it may be one the sold recently.

I am not 100% postive, but it is something you should check on.
I stayed at the MGM Grand back in January.

Only thing we will miss is Goodell getting booed and the Jets fans booing at their pick.

Just heard it. Will still have the draft but no fan events or participation in person.
