This year, the NFL Combine is going to be playing by an altered set of rule changes that will force team executives to change the way they conduct some of their business. It isn’t all bad but teams will still have to adjust.
One new change decreases the number of draft prospects that can be interviewed. In years past, teams could interview up to 60 players over the course of the week but that now has dropped to just 45. In addition, each team previously was allowed to speak with a player for 15 minutes but that time has been upped to 18.
