It's Official- The NFL Draft Will Be On The National Mall In 2027 With Over 1 Million Fans Expected To Attend

I wrote about this briefly last night but now it is officially official, the NFL Draft will be on the National Mall in 2027. I think anything on the National Mall immediately gives it the sickest, coolest backdrop possible. It's gotta be one of the 5 most recognizable places in the world. And now some lucky college kids are going to forever have this beautiful site be the place they lived out their childhood dream and got drafted into the NFL, it doesn't get much cooler than that.

I chose the above picture because you can also see RFK Stadium in the background, which as we know will soon be torn down to put up a new state of the art stadium

Let's think about how amazing the last year has been for football in DC- drafted Jayden Daniels, made the NFC Championship Game, got a new stadium approved for the RFK lot in DC, and now the Draft. It's truly remarkable how much Josh Harris will ultimately mean to this city, and it's only been 3 years. He is the savior we always dreamt of and he is delivering more than we could have possibly imagined. Now just imagine him hoisting the Lombardi as we make the 32nd pick in that draft…absolute cinema.
