Anyone ever been to the NFL Draft?

If Luck declares I am going to give it my all to try to get there. I was hoping someone on here had been before and knew how it all worked. Like what time you need to arrive to get a seat, when they let you in, How to deal with all the Jets fans, any info would be great. I have always wanted to go, and now with a chance to really get a star player, seems like the best time to go.

Anyone else think they might go?

You just get the security guard to open the door for you.

I give you a 2.5/10 for that.

Seriously though, lets say there is a lockout. do all these kids just have to chill in limbo for a year before they get drafted into the NFL. Obviously we would still get the first pick, but would that deter them from wanting to go into the NFL since they would have to wait a whole year?

Such a clusterfug

This years draft will still happen regardless. They will just not play until the lockout is over.

Since it's Radio City - dress up like a Rockette - they'll let you in.

and as far as I know, the 11 draft is happening regardless - there's a provision in the old CBA that says it will be.

From that article:

If there is a lockout, it could begin in March. The current labor deal contains a provision that the NFL draft still would be held. But other offseason activities, such as free agent maneuvering and teams' workouts and practices, would be halted.

Will the draftees get to sign a contract under the old CBA rules or would that be in limbo as well?

I am just guessing here, but I would be willing to bet they will not be able to sign a contract unless a new CBA is reached. You draft the player, and have the rights to him, but you cant sign him until the CBA is done. Again just an educated guess. I dont know for sure.

    • It’s wild to me that so many of you guys are threatened by the idea of an opposing team fan who is polite in 2025. He’s been posting here on and off for years, usually when our teams play each other which hasn’t been for a while. I’d maybe understand this treatment if it was a falcons or saints fan, but packers fans in general are one of the nicer fan bases as long as you aren’t another NFC north team (especially the bears).   
    • Some players excel on the big stage, while others freeze and succumb to the pressure. I’m not convinced Cam took a dive. I think he didn’t handle the stage very well. The pressure got to him and he folded. He wouldn’t be the first quarterback or player to struggle in a Super Bowl. Two HOF examples - John Elway and Jim Kelly. The 2002 MVP, Rich Gannon, threw 5 interceptions against the Bucs. Poor performances happen.  Unless of course you believe all these players threw the games they played in, but if that occurred, surely someone by now would have admitted taking a dive? 🤷‍♂️
    • It was always a matter of time with Cam’s playing style and a shorter shelf life than passers that protect themselves. I suppose Cam could have still been playing in 2028 ten years after the hit took place, but he would need to have evolved as a quarterback and become more of a passer than the dual threat maestro he was. It’s sad because it makes us think of what could have been, but I do feel it was always a matter of time until all the hits took their toll.
