Draft Town

For the first time in 51 years, the City of Chicago played host to the N.F.L. Draft during a weekend of activities that ran from April 30 to May 2. A new, free fan festival known as “Draft Town” was held in Grant Park. At "Combine Corner," guests could participate in some of the same activities that prospects take part in at the N.F.L. Scouting Combine, including running the 40-yard dash.
