Ex-GM Mike Tannenbaum Advising NFL To Postpone Draft, It's Not Feasible

Former NY Jets GM Mike Tannenbaum is advising Roger Goodell to postpone the NFL draft ... telling TMZ Sports it's just impossible for teams to pick under quarantine conditions.

"I just don't know how you can have a draft without three or four people in a room," Tannenbaum says.

Mike tells us during his days of conducting a draft for an NFL team ... he required AT LEAST four people to be on phones in a room -- saying that's just the way it had to be done.

"If we're sitting there, and we're on a team and we're picking 10th, we may be talking to picks eight and nine, and also 11 and 12," Tannenbaum says .
