  1. The combine isn’t going anywhere. Why? With more and more top draftee prospects deciding not to participate, the combine is quickly on its way to being eliminated on the level it has been conducted. For fans, it’s less of a ‘show’. As its importance diminishes so does the incentive to host it. It’s on its last legs. Indy does a great job. It’s centrally located. There is no practical or financial motive for the NFL to a diminishing show in ‘Boston’ and move it to ‘Broadway’ at this point.

    1. That is a lot of misinformation packed into one paragraph. Only the top 1% of 1% don’t participate and it doesn’t matter. The NFL draft should be a couple hours of nothing and it is now a huge revenue event. Same for the combine and it will continue. And yes, 50 cities would kill to poach the event from Indy

    2. Did you do your research on the topic let alone even read this article? La, Vegas, Nashville and other cities wants this event. Im sure they wouldn’t come to Indy to just watch but to gain an understanding on how to lure the event from Indy. The question is WHY if it’s not so profitable or relevant as you claim?
