With another virtual NFL offseason on the horizon, this draft season will look nothing like years past. There will be no meeting of the minds in Indianapolis for the combine. Interviews between teams and prospects will take place virtually.

With that said, predicting the draft – far from an easy task in a normal year – will be harder than ever. Except, of course, for the top pick. Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence and Jaguars coach Urban Meyer are already getting chummy.
