One year after holding its draft virtually, the NFL is returning to a venue.
Monday, they announced the draft will be held at various Cleveland locations — including the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the Great Lakes Science Center and the Browns’ stadium — from April 29-May 1.
The league said a “select” number of prospects will participate in person, while others will log in virtually. Commissioner Roger Goodell will announce the first-round results from the main stage, with Lake Erie in the backdrop.
“We are thrilled to be heading to Cleveland for the NFL Draft, which has become one of the most highly anticipated events in sports,” NFL executive vice president Peter O’Reilly said in a release.
