The NFL Draft process will look exceedingly different in 2021. Even moreso than last year. But one element remains the same. The College Gridiron Showcase continues to be a great opportunity to find diamonds in the rough. Navigating this COVID climate the best they could, CGS put on another great show last month.
Founded by Jose Jefferson and Craig Reed seven years ago, Mike Rittelmann has been with the Showcase for the past five, beginning as an intern and now its Director of Player Personnel and Scouting. He spoke with me about how they modified this year’s event to make it as safe as possible.
