November 22, 2020 is today’s date, and while the current state of College Football is beyond murky due to a vicious pandemic, player opt-outs, and a shortened season the NFL DRAFT more than likely is going to takeoff right on schedule. So far this season we have seen countless players as well as coaches succumb to Covid-19 including The consensus NO.1 Pick in the draft on most boards in Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence, and arguably the best Head Coach in all of College Football in Alabama’s Nick Saban. Projected Top 5-10 Picks have chosen to sit out the season, and start Combine & Pro Day preparation early over risking exposure, and unnecessary injury in a very short season.
