New Orleans, La. – Yes

The city of Na’wlins already knows how to throw the biggest party in America when they hold the annual Mardi Gras events. Does anyone doubt that they can carry the NFL Draft? How many incoming rookies would turn down that invitation?

Of course letting college kids loose on Bourbon Street may not be a good idea but the fans who make the trip to watch the show would have a banner time when the draft ends around mid-night on Thursday and Friday.

Green Bay, Wi – No

Sorry GB but the thought of a frigid Green Bay bluster is no place to hold a draft. Add to that the fact that while Green Bay is considered a once in a lifetime visit for visiting fans, there really isn’t much to do outside of the draft. But the food is terrific.
