NFL Draft moves to Chicago in 2015
Posted by Michael David Smith on October 2, 2014, 6:27 PM EDT
In an announcement made official by the Bears, the league revealed today that the draft will take place on Thursday, April 30, Friday, May 1, and Saturday, May 2 at the 4,000-seat Auditorium Theatre in Chicago.
The draft has grown in recent years to become not just the biggest event of the NFL’s offseason but one of the biggest American sports events of the year, and the NFL has talked about moving it around the country to give more fans an opportunity to experience it in person. Chicago will be the first stop on what may become an annual tour, moving the draft from city to city.
