Orlando, Fl – Yes

Once you get the traffic congestion taken care of the city of Orlando could put up a pretty good bash for the NFL Draft. If the NFL played their negotiating skills right they could partner with Disney to really make the event…ahem….”magical”.

With weather that is typically mild this time of year the Orlando area could host a number of events to coincide with the draft but the real draw would be the theme parks that surround the area. Hey maybe the NFL could piss off PETA and host at Sea World.

Indianapolis, In – No

I loved my lone visit to Indianapolis decades ago. Very fond memories but I wouldn’t host a draft there. Not that they couldn’t handle it but they already have the Combine event so give someone else a chance to be a part of the system. Although the cobbled streets at night are bliss.
