“This is really bad for the league to spring these [Combine] restrictions on the players at the last minute,” one veteran NFL agent said. “This is not good, and it won’t stand. We’re taking action and are going to have our voices heard.”https://t.co/1gUZLeNSAA

It’s been a while since I’ve seen so many competing #NFL agents, players and the union all universally pissed off about the same thing. This combine bubble rule from the league has pulled off the hat trick.

Can’t tell if the NFL is in “let’s use COVID as an excuse to do whatever we want” mode or “Liability lawyers gone WILD (cuz these aren’t our employees yet)” mode. Probably a lil of both. https://t.co/EVF6RzJbPm

[Cont.] “…non-traditional. At least they’ve addressed the concerns over meal specifications and cadence to a degree, but there’s a lot more science that goes into the preparation of preparing these young men for this transitional event. Also, what’s the point of going… 2/3

[Cont] “…if you’re not going to see people face-to-face. The NFL just altered all these CoVID restrictions when money & ratings were on the line for the postseason to make it easier to play. Now all of a sudden CoVID is the excuse to increase restrictions & reduce contact.” 3/3

This draft lacks a premier TE but the depth is outstanding. You’ll be able to find potential starters in the 4th/5th round this year.
