BUZZ, RANKINGS & TOOLS
Seahawks Draft Blog by Rob Staton is a must-read.

Staton put together a great look at the historic draft trends of Schneider’s Seahawks, matched against this draft.

Here’s a deep-dive draft preview from Seahawks draft analysts Staton, Corbin Smith and Alistair Corp, via Matty F. Brown’s “Seattle Overload Podcast.”

We previewed the Seahawks’ draft with Dan Viens on “The Dan Cave Podcast.”

Here’s a five-round composite Big Board, put together by Arif Hasan of The Athletic.

Corp amassed another handy Seahawks draft board.

Check out the news & rumors from Tony Pauline at Pro Football Network.

Here’s the trade chart the Seahawks and other teams are now using.

THE CORONAVIRUS DRAFT
Commissioner Roger Goodell made the call April 6 to have all teams draft from home: “Clubs will conduct their draft operations remotely, with club personnel separately located in their homes.”

John Schneider actually had walls ripped out of his house, turning his dining room into his draft room. Pete Carroll said his draft setup includes boards that wrap around the room, seven screens, land lines and multiple cell phones. “We just both hope we don’t get overloads on our circuits and everything shuts down because we’ve got a lot more things plugged in than we normally do around here,” he said.

The league conducted a practice draft Monday to get any bugs out before the real thing. It apparently had a few glitches early, but Packers GM Brian Gutenkunst thought it “went pretty smooth” overall. Schneider said he and some other teams would do another, unscripted practice Wednesday to make sure they could get trades done in a timely manner.

On his “Flying Coach” podcast, Carroll talked about how the Seahawks would sync up their technology and otherwise handle this “wild, wild West” draft.

The NFL will have 58 prospects participating virtually. EA Sports is going to do something to help the production, though it might not be the cool idea of putting together moments of draftees walking on stage to meet the commissioner.

ESPN and NFL Network are expected to combine for one telecast, which will double as a fundraiser for those fighting the coronavirus.

The tradition of booing Goodell will live on. Bud Light will contribute up to $500,000 to the Draft-a-Thon during the event.

More details on how the draft will work, from Peter King.

Baltimore coach John Harbaugh is concerned about the security of new video app Zoom, which teams will be using to conduct the draft.

Cincinnati and Detroit coached the Senior Bowl, so they have a little extra knowledge of those players.

Some prospects, like Washington’s Jacob Eason (a second-round prospect) are putting together Pro Days on video.

Julian Okwara of Notre Dame describes his draft prep in this surreal world. Here are more ways NFL players and prospects are staying in shape.
