The 2020 NFL Draft will be full of intrigue, not only for the usual player and team drama but also because it will be conducted through a virtual structure. Commissioner Roger Goodell will announce the picks from his home, while team executives and coaches will work remotely using videoconference technology.
Trades could cause the draft order to change before the first round kicks off at 8 p.m. ET on Thursday. For now, the New York Giants will select fourth overall and the Miami Dolphins will pick fifth. Normally, it’s better to be drafted earlier than later.
